Reminder: Project Work

European Day of Languages - Thursday, 26th September 2019
Today in Third and Fourth Class we celebrated European Day of Languages. The children all found out the language of their country (for the Blue Star Programme). We went around the classroom and the children told each other these countries and their languages. Then we looked at a powerpoint presentation all about European Day of Languages and why we celebrate it. The children then got a chance to examine how people say "Hello" and "Goodbye" in other languages. To end our lesson the children then did a wordsearch on "How to say Hello in Europe". This wordsearch was a great challenge for the children and they found it a lot of fun! We are really enjoying learning about Europe and the European Union.
Project Work
The children in Third and Fourth Class started researching their countries this week that they got as part of the Blue Star Programme. They have until Wednesday, 16th October 2019 to complete their projects. Mrs. Crosby has decided that Tuesday evenings for the next five weeks will be project night - learning and reading homework along with researching their project! The children are really looking forward to doing their projects. When the projects are complete the children will then take it in turns to present their projects to the rest of the class and teach us all about their country!
