Oíche Shamhna, úlla buí,
Cailleach agus púca ina suí,
Cailleach agus púca ina suí,
Cailleach agus púca ina suí.
Éist leo, éist leo bú-hú-hú,
Bú-hú-hú, hí-hí-hí.

Múinteoir: Dia duit a Nicole. Conas atá tú?
Nicole: Tá mé go maith agus tú féin?

Nicole: Tá athas orm.
Múinteoir: An maith leat Oíche Shamhna?
Nicole: Is maith liom Oíche Shamhna.
Múinteoir: An maith leat cnónna?
Nicole: Ní maith liom cnónna. Is maith liom milseáin.
Múinteoir: Maith an cailín. Slán.
Nicole: Slán.

Maths is all around us. Prices on menus, the number on a football shirt, a wheel is a circle, cylinder kitchen roll, a car registration number. The children in room 4 were able to think of 30 ways that maths is around us.

On Thursday 25th October we went on a maths trail in the meadow. We worked in pairs and we counted the trees, made a set of 7 stones, collected 3 twigs and 5 leaves.

The children worked as Maths Detectives at home too. They brought in photographs and pictures of maths in the environment... patterns, 2D and 3D shapes, prices and numbers on food packaging.

Tá Patrick i gcónaí ag caint as Gaeilge. Mar sin bhuaigh sé an chéad teastas 'Gaeilgeoir na seachtaine'. Bíonn sé ag labhairt le gach múinteoir as Gaeilge. Is breá leis ag foghlaim focail nua. Maith thú a Phádraig.

Don't waste water! Turn off the tap when you are brushing your teeth.

On Monday in Maths we collected information about our class and recorded it on this chart. Now we know how many boys and girls are in our class. How old they are and what their favourite animal is!

Look at all the autumn leaves and seeds the children brought in for our nature table!

We have been learning all about the changes that happen in Autumn. The leaves turn red, yellow and brown and fall from the trees. Chestnuts (or conkers) fall from the Horse Chestnut tree, helicopters fall from the Sycamore tree and acorns fall from the Oak tree.
