Friday 20th March - activities and ideas

Good morning!

Well done everyone on finishing week one of learning at home! I hope you are all keeping safe and well and enjoy a well deserved rest this weekend! If you have any questions or would like to send on any pictures for sharing on the blog my email is misstansey2020@gmail.com. 

Here are a couple of ideas for you: 
1. Make a time capsule with an adult or older sibling (See picture) 
2. Read sight word reader and decodable reader from Wednesday's post 
3. Play 'What's Behind my Back?'  Using a set of colours (five colours for Juniors, nine colours for Seniors) the children hide a selection behind their back and show the rest to their partner. Their partner must use their knowledge of sums and numbers to identify how many colours are behind the child's back. Here is a clip of us playing earlier this year: ​https://twitter.com/KilkerleySchool/status/1219943617177047040
Extra challenge: the children must write down the number of colours behind their partner's back instead of saying the number. 
4. Follow this link to access our Gaeilge programme online - Abair Liom. The children are very familiar with the games and activities on this site. https://www.kilkerleyns.com/school-blog/free-access-to-abair-liom-online-for-all-classes 

Have a lovely weekend,
