Portfolio-Sharing Meetings

The timetable for the meetings on the 8th-10th June, which will take place between 12.30 and 13.30 each day, has been posted. Sorry for the delay.  Children will be involved in part of these meetings by sharing their portfolio and demonstrating their learning.  Parents will also get a chance to meet with a teacher briefly.  These meetings will take place over three days, 8th-10th June.

 

Show and Tell

We have started sharing our favourite books.  The timetable will be posted each week beside the front door.

 

BIAP Testing

Many thanks to everyone for bringing the assessment booklets back so promptly.  This assessment tool is used in most national schools and provides us with a wide perspective on your child’s development in a number of areas.  Most of the assessment will be completed before the end of the coming week.

 

Playhouse for the Yard

We’ll look at trying to build the playhouse an afternoon this week, most likely Tuesday afternoon after school if the weather is favourable.  Anyone willing to lend a hand is most welcome.

 

Gaeilge

It has been a while since we have put some new vocabulary and phrases in the newsletter.  Our current theme is Teilifís.

Cad atá ar an teilifís? (cod uh-tah air on tell-i-feesh)

What is on television?

 

Tá _______ ar an teilifís. (tah _______ air on tell-i-feesh)
