Assignments for 18th May-22nd May 2020

16th May 2020

Hi 6^th class,

I hope you are all well and safe and doing your assignments as best you can. It is so important that you are trying your best to do your work at this time. Some of you are making a plan/schedule out each day and sticking to it. This is a great way of putting structure on your day and reviewing what you achieved or didn’t achieve that day.

I’m so delighted to receive your emails daily as it gives me some feedback on how you managed the tasks I set. Thanks to all who continue to email me with your wonderful work. One or two lines would also be great, just to let me know how your week was. My email is aflanagancashelgirls@gmail.com.

IMPORTANT NOTICES FOR 6^TH CLASS.

This week some tasks( handprint, letter to your future self) have been set for 5^th & 6^th that are going to go into a time capsule in our school as a historical record of what we experienced during Covid 19. I am urging you to take part in this as you are the seniors in the school and will carry out the task, as you do everything, to the very best of your ability. In 2030 we would love to invite you all back to dig up the capsule together. What a celebration that would be!!!

Also some Confirmation tasks ( My memories of My Confirmation Day/Design the cover of your scrapbook) have been set and these will eventually make it into your Confirmation Scrapbook which we will be giving back to you as your keepsake. This handover will take place in June at some stage. So get started!! Do them on a white A4 sheet so they can be stuck into your scrapbook.

Mrs. Kealy and I are putting a “shout out” for your photos of when you were small. We always do this for 6^th class at this time of the year. The photos must be school related and can have your friends or family in it. You can email these to us at our school emails.

Thanks again for your co-operation and support during this period. Keep safe.

Kind Regards,

Aileen Flanagan.

An Bhumbóg The Bee

Luigh mé síos I lay down

Sa ghairdín inné, In the garden yesterday

Agus thit mé i mo chodladh And I fell asleep

I lár an lae. In the middle of the day.

Dhúisigh mé go tapa I woke up fast

Nuair a bhuail an fón, when my phone rang

Agus chonaic mé rud éigin and I saw something

Ina shuí ar mo shrón. Sitting on my nose.

Bumbóg mhór, A big bee

Dubh agus buí, Black and yellow

A tháinig ar cuairt That came to visit

Nuair a bhí mé i mo luí. When I was lying down

Níor bhog mé ar feadh tamaill I didn’t move for awhile

Ar dheis ná ar chlé, Left nor right

Agus d’eitil an bhumbóg ar aghaidh and the bee flew away

Nuair a bhí sí reidh when she was ready
