Mrs. Carter’s Work 18th – 22nd May

Hi everybody,

I hope you’re all keeping well and getting by as best you can. I hope you’re getting lots of exercise and plenty of sunshine and fresh air during the day, while keeping yourselves safe at the same time.  I hope you’re getting lots of reading done too. I’ve attached some ideas for art for you to do if you’d like, but I know that some of you talented artists will have many excellent ideas of your own. Please send photos of some of your creations to me.

I have attached the answers to last week’s Future Tense sentences, last week’s New Wave Mental Maths answers and this week’s Figure it Out Answers. Use these to help you spot where you’re going wrong. In Maths, if you find you’ve made a mistake, use the answer to help you work backwards and try to figure out where you’re going wrong. If you need any help please email me on clara.carter@stjosephsgorey.ie

This timetable is a guide. You can follow it if you like or follow your own schedule. Try some of the maths – if you are a fast worker you should get most of them done, if it takes you longer then pick a few from each exercise. Do not worry about getting it all done. Do what you can. Your best effort is all that any of us can do. I know my class is full of great workers so I know what you’re all capable. I received some fantastic work this week boys so keep sending it to me at clara.carter@stjosephsgorey.ie

I’ve attached some Google Forms which will make it much easier for you to send me your answers to English and Science exercises, your Sentences and your Future Tense answers. These can be used on a phone, tablet or a computer. If you’ve any trouble with these please email me. Or you can continue to email me photographs of your work. I’m very impressed with the work I’ve received to date so keep it up boys and well done!!

Transition to Secondary School from 6th Class

WEBINAR -Transition to Second Level – An Adventure and a Challenge.

An extra  Webinar on the Transition to Second Level has been added – An Adventure and a Challenge  on Wednesday 20th of May @ 7pm as the 13th of May is now fully booked.

Title. Transition to Second Level – An Adventure and a Challenge.

The transition from Primary to Secondary school is an exciting time in a young person’s life. It also comes at a key developmental stage, a fact not lost on parents as they come to terms with the arrival of the teenage years. Over the last 20 years I have played a key role in developing the transition programme for my own school, delivered our induction programme to incoming first years and supported parents through parent evenings. An information pack supporting this webinar will be available to all participants. Key areas addressed are

  • Junior Cycle what’s new.
  • Supporting teens to manage change.
  • Identifying common areas of concern and how to prepare for them.
  • Troubleshooting and where to go for support.
  • Embracing change and being open to new opportunities.
