Hello everyone,
This week we will be doing some school work from Monday to Thursday-English on Monday and Wednesday and Maths on Tuesday and Thursday. I am also suggesting some ‘Wellness Week’ activities that you could do along with/instead of the school work. I hope you have enjoyed seeing your artwork and writing shared on the website and that you have enjoyed seeing what your friends have been up to. Parents, if you would like to share more photos this week you can email me on katiedoylestjosephs@gmail.com. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.
Have a great week everyone!
Monday:
- Picture and writing page: parents; remember to encourage your child to write a sentence independently.
Picture and writing pages-the zoo
- Revise tricky words 1-24 in your tricky word booklet
Tuesday:
- Roll and colour worksheet
Wednesday:
- Roll and read game-roll a dice and read a word on the corresponding line. Cover the word when you read it. The first to fill an entire row wins.
- Sight words worksheet-read the word and draw the picture.
Thursday:
- Story-Ten in the Bed-Count the toys on each page while you listen to the story.
Wellness Week:
- Happiness jar-Take a container or jar and decorate it. Put a container of small objects beside the jar. Throughout the week when something makes you feel happy put an object into the jar. At the end of the week look at how full your jar is and talk about the things that made you feel happy. You could also use small pieces of paper or post-its and draw or write about the things that make you happy.
- Random acts of kindness-do something kind for someone else everyday. Colour one flower for each act of kindness.
- Have a dance party with your family. After your dance party put your hand on your chest where your heart is. Is your heart beating faster?
- Virtual school tour of Dublin Zoo.
