This week the star of the week in 5th class 1 was Seán and in 5th class 2 it was Finn. During the week we were learning about time in both the 12 and 24 hour system. In art we started working on green schools posters and finished our Taj Mahal drawings. This week we also focused on handwriting in English. For homework we wrote an explanatory piece on How It's Made. In Irish we finished learning about food. While we were learning about food we wrote menus, played bingo and played Kahoot on the iPads. This week we started a programme on Webwise that teaches us about cyber-bullying and how to avoid it. Finally, the Gaeilgeoir na Seachtaine in 5th class 2 was Enya.

Plant Propagation with Olwen

5th Class 2 entered a competition with two other schools to see which school could make the best poster presentation of a child's point of view of a 21st century classroom. Our class focused on the tables and chairs and how we can improve them. After we had finished the poster a group of children from our class went to NUIG to present our project for three judges and many people who passed by. Unfortunately we didn't win the competition but we came 2nd and won a Hokki stool for our class. We really enjoyed the project and are glad that they picked our school to participate.
