English
This week in English we will be looking at Explanation Writing again. For this week, the children will be expected to finish their writing.The topic for their writing is "How is Honey made?". I have left the video below.
Also in relation to Reading, I wanted us to try and read together. So I have attached the link to bring you to the online copy of Roald Dahl's very famous book, the BFG. I have attached an audio of me reading the Chapter 9 today that the children can listen to as the read along to the words. This week I would like the children to read Chapter 8 called "Frobscottle and Whizzpoppers" and next week I will read Chapter 11. (Click below for the book)

Irish
This week we will be reading about Sa Bhaile! (Home). I have uploaded the reading comprehension in the link below with recordings of myself reading them aloud to help the children with pronunciation.
If you just click on the speaker Icon and press play the children will be able to hear me read and then they can read it aloud afterwards to practice their oral Irish. I have also added in translations to help at home because I understand that Irish is a tricky subject to help with.
I have also included a PowerPoint with a voice over to go through some new words about Sa Bhaile. There is a worksheet in this powerpoint for the children to do.
