Work for Monday 18th - Wednesday 20th

Hi Everyone,
I hope you all had a nice weekend. The next three days of work will be on this blog but you will be working from work packs from Thursday 21st onward. Each day will be planned out and you can upload the work as you have been on Seesaw. The class have been uploading loads of great stuff, including art work, science projects and other things so keep up the good work! There has already been a great response to the rock art on Killiney Beach so well done to those who have already put a rock down there.

The following is the suggested timetable for the week. This does not have to be followed.

Monday 18th

Maths: Do questions 5, 6 and 7 below. Read the yellow boxes carefully. When finding the percentage of a number you follow these steps every time:

1. Convert the percentage to a fraction (put the number over a hundred).
2. Simplify the fraction into its simplest form.
3. Divide by the bottom number of the fraction and then multiply it by the top number.

Work for the week May 11th - 15th

Welcome back everyone.
I hope you all had a nice weekend and enjoyed all of the sunshine! The following timetable is only a suggestion and does not have to be followed. Again, there is no pressure to finish all of the work but I would encourage you to do so. The engagement has been excellent in recent weeks and I hope this will continue. I will also remind you that when you are uploading work you can attach up to 10 files at once instead of uploading a new picture singly. This will save you time when uploading and will also save me a lot of time when I am looking at the work. If you have any questions please message me on Seesaw and I will get back to you asap.

Have a good week!
