Paris! 

Pop on some French music in the video to the left and 
start the day with a French breakfast, maybe a croissant or pain au chocolat or a slice or brioche with butter and jam and a hot chocolate.

Maths:
Time to plan a real life trip to Paris for you and a friend, you have a budget of €600 each. 
Things to consider when planning your trip:
When will you travel?
For how many nights? (we’re pretending the world is pandemic free for this one)
Where will you fly to and from? 
Where will you stay? 
What attractions will you see?
Remember to include:

• Flights
• Accommodation
• Entry Fees for sights 

This week we will also have our virtual Sports Day.  Ms Fahy has uploaded lots of super ideas on the main blog page for this.  Remember now that SeeSaw is up and running for the class you can send on work through the app if you'd like.  Of course you can still contact me on the sixth class email if you have any questions.
Have a great week,

​Ms Condron.
