Hello!  In english recently we have learned about nouns, adjectives, apostrophes, verbs, and conjunctions. We have entered a "Fantasy Writing" competition (like twilight or Harry Potter). If you win your story will be used as a chapter in one of Frank Ryans books, you will also win an ipad2 and a trip to London to meet Frank himself!!
Now to maths, we have been very very busy in maths since the start of the year , especially these last few weeks, we've been learning about long multiplication with decimals, long division with decimals, data-bar charts and line graphs.
 D'fhoghlamar briathara san aimsir caite, aimsir laithreach agus aimsir fháistineach agus briathra neamhrialta freisin.
 We have learned loads in all S.E.S.E subjects! In science we have carried out a good few experiments, like fizzy lemonade, duck eggs in coke, we also tested for starch in food and nutrional information. Did you no that "Rice crispies totally chocolately" has 13g of fat "DISGUISTING"!!! Thats just over six times more fat than a cadbury curly wurly! Today we have planned to make vanilla and chocolate ice-cream if we keep the noise down!
In history we have looked at 9/11 and Cassius Clay who actually changed his name to Muhammad Ali. "Did you no that Muhammad Alis grandfather Abe Grady was from the Turnpike Road in Ennis!"  We also learned about Martin Luther King who fought for the rights of black people.
Now geography, We have learned about county nicknames , county car registrations and towns in different countries. We have learned and are learning about the EU ( european union). Did you no that there are 27 countries in the EU?
Before the Halloween break in S.P.H.E we learnt about Obesity in Ireland. 61% of adults are obese in Ireland. Did you no that over 6,000 people die in Ireland every year from being over-weight or obese? Ugghhh!!
Sports yay! Tomorrow the girls were schueled to play a match but Mr.McEvoy had to postpone it due to the weather forcasted. The boys played Cratloe on Monday in a friendly and got beaten badly! Our class P.E is on Tuesdays with Stephen Ryan for tag rugby.
                                    Thats all for now!
