HELLO GIRLS AND BOYS. IT'S NEARLY SUMMER!!!!!

I'M SURE YOU WILL BE DELIGHTED TO HAVE A WELL EARNED BREAK AFTER ALL THAT HOME-SCHOOLING. IT WAS GREAT TO SPEAK TO MOST OF YOU AND YOUR PARENTS LAST WEEK. IF YOU FEEL LIKE A FUN READING CHALLENGE FOLLOW THE LINK BELOW. LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU ALL AGAIN IN THE AUTUMN TERM  IN YOUR NEW CLASSROOM. TAKE CARE . FROM MRS BYRNE.

P4/5 IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THE HEALTHY KIDZ VIRTUAL SPORTS DAY GO TO

www.healthy-kidz.com  AND REGISTER.   (IGNORE THE DATE AS YOU CAN STILL REGISTER)

Hello boys and girls, I hope you are all keeping well. If you have been doing any of the GAA skills we learned in our PE classes, could you send little videos of yourself doing that  to our school email info@stpandstbps.ballycastle.ni.sch.uk

Thank you. I think our class favourites were, making bridges with our body and playing rounders while the rest of the class did lots of jumping, hopping, star jumps, skipping, running on the spot, press ups etc.

Look forward to seeing them. 

                            Good Luck 

                                       Mrs Byrne  

Prodigy Mathematics for P4 and P5 Passwords information

Passwords to allow access to P4CB and P5CB Prodigy Maths programme were not included in each child's Home Learning Pack.  These Passwords have been sent to your P4 and P5 children's home  by post today, Tuesday 21st April.

This PASSWORD is all that your child will require to access the Prodigy Maths programme.  Ignore the request for Class Code etc as our school has already provided these details.  Any queries please use the info@stpandstbps.ballycastle.ni.sch.uk email to contact a member of staff.  

We have received recent guidance from the ETI (Education and Training Inspectorate) regarding learning at home during the school closure.  (PDF document below) You will see that some of these websites mentioned are already on the list given out for your class and there are some others for you to explore.  The ETI state that “It is also very important that there is a balance between online learning, written and practical activities, outdoor learning and free time.” The teacher guidance given for your child includes written and practical activities as well as outdoor learning and free time.  Many of these activities particularly lend themselves to the home environment, taking the pressure off parents who feel they need to recreate a mini classroom at home – you will be relieved to know, you don’t! 

FOR PRIMARY 5

Over the next few weeks we will be doing some work about our next topic-Water In Our World. Could you think for a little while and then write down all the things you know about water- what it is, when and where and how we use it? Then write down all the things you’d like to find out about water. I’ll let you know what to do after that.

  This booklet and individual worksheets below will help you to do your work on our new topic. I will arrange to have them printed and sent out to you in a few weeks if necessary. However, if you’re able to and want to, you can certainly print them yourselves to use now. They don’t need to be in colour.  The little white icons with PDF written in red are all worksheets that can be printed.  Icons with PPT on them are powerpoint presentations to give you some information before you start each part.  All of the websites below will give you enough information to find out about Water In Our World over the next 8 weeks - there is absolutely no rush to do this work!!!  Spend some time watching the videos and googling anything you find interesting about Water In Our World before you try doing any of the worksheets. If you do the work in the order I have it on the page it should be easy enough to follow.   I hope you enjoy these activities and I've a great one for you at the end - needless to say I'm not telling you yet what it is!
