Mr McLoughlin 5th Class work April 27th – May 1st


Hello Everyone,
I hope everybody is safe and well. I’d just like to say well done to everyone for their continued hard work. I have outlined the weeks work below. It is similar to last week but if there are any questions please message me on Seesaw and I will get back to you asap. Ms Spain’s groups literacy work is outlined below the weeks classwork.  

Again, I would encourage you to look at the school website for extra activities that you could do during the day. One of these is a competition to design a book cover for the story: The Supermarket Ghost. Each class will have their own competition and there will be prizes for the winners. You can access the book through the following link: https://www.obrien.ie/the-supermarket-ghost.

Over the week I would also like you to write a story that is at least 3 pages long. The story must be inspired by one of the pictures below. It is up to you which one you choose. Remember that a story has an orientation (setting), complication (problem), resolution and a conclusion. This should be submitted on Friday onto Seesaw.

School Work April 20th - April 24th

Mr McLoughlin 5th Class work April 20th – April 24th 

Hello Everyone, 

I hope that you all had a nice time over the Easter holidays. I have put together the following work to be done over the next week. Work will be added to the class blog on a weekly basis from now on. There is no pressure to complete it but I would encourage the children to get as much as they can done. I know it will be tricky for some of the children to access the online books which is totally understandable. 

The school website is also a great resource for activities which I would also encourage you to have a look at if you have not already done so. The engagement with the work so far has been excellent and I just want to say well done to everyone for this. If there are any questions about the work you can send me a note on Seesaw and I will try to respond as quickly as possible. 

It is also possible to upload multiple pictures at once on Seesaw. I would ask that you try to do this as it will save you time when uploading as well as saving me a lot of time when reviewing the work. 

Ms Spain's English group can access their English work through the following link:
