Last week of term June 22nd - 26th 2020
Dear parents and pupils,
The final week of school is here! I hope you are all safe, well and excited about the summer holidays.
I will not be attaching a plan of work for this week as the only thing I want you to do is to finish your Mental Maths. You should be on weeks 39 and 40. Once complete, make sure to self correct.
I want to take this opportunity to wish the outgoing 6th class all the best as they begin their journey to secondary school. Fun and exciting times are ahead for you all.
Thank you again to the children that have sent in work over the past number of weeks. I really did enjoy seeing how you were getting on and your work was just brilliant.
I'd like to say another thank you to the parents - well done! The past few months have been tough on everyone and I know home-schooling can be hard, so look forward to the well earned break.
Enjoy the holidays - relax, have fun, go on adventures but more importantly, stay safe and well.
Take care,
Denise McGrath

Plan of work for June 2nd - 5th 2020
Dear parents and pupils,
I hope this Bank Holiday weekend finds you all safe and well.
This week's plan of work can be found below. For the next couple of weeks we will be incorporating Science into our English. Our English reading will be based on Science and so will our definitions. For History this week, I have asked you to do some research so the use of the internet will be required. If this is not possible, do not worry about it, you can just do the reading section.
Like always, we don't want families to feel under pressure to complete any of the set work.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading about and listening to the books that the children are reading independently at home. There have been some excellent book reviews and I can tell that the children enjoy reading them too. Also, I loved the children's creativity with their recycling logo. The drawings alone were wonderful but the slogans that the children came up with were just brilliant! Keep up the good work everyone.
If you have any questions or queries, or need some help or guidance please email the school at laurencetownns@hotmail.com and include FAO Denise McGrath in the subject bar.
Kind Regards,
Denise McGrath

Plan of work for May 25th - 29th 2020
Dear parents and pupils,
I hope you are still staying safe and are keeping well.
This week's plan of work can be found below. I have outlined some work to be uploaded onto Seesaw but I understand that this is not possible in every household. The work is not limited to what I ask for, if the children want to send me anything that they have been working on I would be delighted to see it.
As always, we do not want families to feel under pressure to complete any tasks.
Another huge thank you to those who have sent some work in. Your debates were very good and there was a good mix of children who were for and against the topic. They made for very interesting reading.
If you have any questions or queries, or need some help or guidance please email the school at laurencetownns@hotmail.com and include FAO Denise McGrath in the subject bar.

Next week is the first week that we will use Seesaw. We are using this because I would love to see some of the wonderful work you are doing at home.
This week, I would like you to take a picture of your Maths copies, your English debate, the front cover of the book you are reading and finally over the next 2 weeks I would like you to upload a picture of your Geography Project.
If any of you want to upload pictures of the work you completed during the first few weeks of the closure, I would love to see those too.
