Hello people of the internet!
In Fourth Class we have been doing our Write a Book project recently. First we had to plan out the plot. Then we had to write it out chapter by chapter. We did six chapters each. After each chapter was written we passed out the copies and everybody got to read a random story. We wrote a comment on each story. When we had it finished we typed it out. We also illustrated two pictures for inside the story and the front cover.
We have also been doing long multiplication and division. We’re just finishing division now. We have been playing Maths games to see if we know our tables well.
We have also been putting out bird seed for the birds in Science.
In History we have been learning about the Vikings. We have been learning about Norway because it was one of the countries that the Vikings were from. There were 3 countries that the Vikings were from, Denmark, Sweden and Norway. All those mixed together are called Scandinavia. They found America 500 years before Christopher Columbus. They went to Greenland because Erik the Red lied to them! We also learned about how an excavation found Viking facts in Dublin.
We all went to a Gaelic tournament in Loughlinstown. The boys went last week and the girls went this week. The girls won and Aoife scored a hat-trick!
We have recently been doing cursive writing as part of our stations.
Thanks for reading our blog post. There will be more to come!
