Rang a Trí

We have been learning about Ancient Egypt. We did some hieroglyphics in art class, see pictures below. We made paper that looks like it is from ancient Egypt by using tea and tea bags then drew hieroglyphics on them.

We are learning a new song that you might know! It is called “Walk like an Egyptian”. Does that ring a bell? We had different lyrics all to do with the Egyptians. Mr. Fairbrother came in to listen to us!

It was Eid on Thursday. We talked about it in class and wished people celebrating a Very Happy Eid.

We did our Drumcondra tests this week on reading and maths. We did them on Monday and Tuesday.

It was Mary and Ms. McCoy’s birthdays! Happy Birthday!!!

Oliver had surgery on his left arm. He is wearing a sling. But we are glad to have him back in school with us. Katherine fell on Monday and is on crutches. Get better soon everyone! Last week we did PE which involved lots of team-work. We are getting better at supporting our team mates and helping them when they need encouragement.

For drama we did bingo using other people!! Where we had a sheet and it said “find someone who…” and then we would find someone and they would have to sign it. In english we learned about when to use commas and explanation text on how the Egyptians mummified their Pharaohs.

It is Ms Mc Coy’s last day with us. Thank you Ms McCoy for teaching us and we will miss you.

Edith and Edie
