Letters from Daedalus and Icarus

We know the story of Daedalus and Icarus.
We pretended that we were Daedauls or Icarus and we wrote a letter home explaining what was happening.  Here are our letters home.

Intensive Literacy Learning programme

Every day for this fortnight we are taking part in the Intensive Literacy Learning programme.
Each day extra teachers come to our class for 30 minutes.
We break up into groups of 4-6 and we read a new book a day, we re-read the book we had last night, we work with magnetic numbers, we write sentences and we play literacy boxed games or literacy activities on the iPad.
We are really enjoying all the extra fun activities and our reading is really improving.
A big Thank You to Ms. Linanne, Ms. Kearney, Ms. Groarke and Ms. Flannery who have been helping us each day.
