Hello boys and girls, I hope you are all happy and
enjoying the wonderful weather that we are having. This week you are invited to take part in
Scoil Bhríde’s remote sports week! There are sport activities for each day of
the week. You will also find some lovely colouring pages to download. Remember
to wear your hats and sun cream if you are outside playing in the sunshine.
Drink plenty of water and try not to stay out under the hot sun for too long.
Take a break in the cool shade.
I hope that you enjoyed some of the activities from
last week. Thank you so much for sending me your fantastic work. Your
handwriting is very good and I love reading your weekly news.
This week you will find a new story called ‘When a
dragon moves in’ and also some bird watching tasks. I hope that you enjoy these
and have a go at making your own bird bath.
Now that you have some of your school books at
home. It would be nice if you could
complete some pages from your Sounds like Phonics and maths books. I have included some pages from your books
this week.
Take care everyone and don’t forget to keep up the
regular handwashing. Try your best to help Mammy and Daddy and be kind and
caring to each other.
Until next week,
Mrs. O’Neill
Listen to Mark Duplass read the story ‘When a
Dragon moves in’
Before you read the story think about the following
questions:
What do you think the story is about?
In this story, a dragon moves into a boy’s sandcastle. What do you think the dragon is going to do?
Literacy
– Reading
Click on these pictures and read these stories with your child.
You could engage your child with the
following reading strategies to encourage them.
Choral Reading. You read at the same time.
Echo Reading. You read first and your child echoes the same
sentence or paragraph you just read.
Act It Out. You act out the story together or pretend
to be characters in the story and read the lines.
Literacy
– Writing (For Junior and Senior infants)
There
are many exciting things about the summertime. There are lots of things to see
when you go outside. The reading book above ‘At the Beach’ will give you some
ideas for your writing.
Write a few lines on the writing frame below about different things that you can see in the summer. Click for a bigger version.
Tricky
Word Games
Use your Tricky words to play the following games -
Tricky
word reveal- This game requires two pieces of
paper. Write a word from the list on a piece of paper. Then cover the word
completely with the other piece of paper. Slowly reveal the first letter of the
word. Ask your child if they can guess
what the word will be from looking at the first word.
Tricky Word Hunt – You could write a few of these words on pieces of paper and stick them up in a room in the house. Call out one of the words and you child can go and search for it.
I Spy – Similar to the ‘Tricky Word Hunt’ You could have a few words stuck up in a room. Tell your child ‘I spy a word beginning with W. I spy a word ending in g’ etc.
Tricky Word Toss – This is a game that can be played outside but you could also play it indoors. Write a few tricky words on pieces of paper. Spread them out on the grass. Ask your child to throw something soft e.g a ball onto a word. They then run to the word that they have landed on and read it.

S.E.S.E – Bird Watching
Now that you have looked at some of the birds and heard their different songs. Why don’t you do your own little bit of bird watching in your garden. You can use the sheet below to record all the different birds that you were able to see. Good luck and have fun. Click for a bigger version.
S.E.S.E BIRD WATCHING
Have you noticed that when you go outside you can
hear lots of birds singing? Watch this video from Dublin zoo. It will help you
to recognise what some of these birds look and sound like. (Robin, blue-tit,
blackbird and blue finch)
Did you know that each bird has a different song?
After watching the video, you will be able to recognise the different songs.
Birds love to have a dip in water. Perhaps you could build your own little bird bath. If you are lucky you might have many thirsty or hot birds visit your garden. Watch this video to get some ideas.
