How to build a stone age hut.
You will need ; clay, lollipop sticks, fabric, straw, wool, leaves and glue.

First you roll the clay into a ball. Next you flatten the clay to make a base for the hut.
Then add the lollipop sticks to the clay in a diagonal manner. Let it dry for 48 hours.

We had a great fun dressing up for Halloween. We paraded around the school in our costumes and scared everyone. We went to an assembly in the hall and learned about our new class houses. 
Ms Leonard showed us a new app on the tablets called Quiver which brings 2D pictures to life. It uses augmented reality, something we were learning about in our reading this week.
We finished the day with doughnuts and some fun 'Minute To Win It' Games. Congratulations to Grúpa Oráiste on winning the games.

We worked really hard on our projects. We put a lot of time and effort into them at home a and as a result the projects were excellent!! We had to give a presentation on our county and everyone stood up and talked in front of the class. Well done to all.

Teacher put one piece of untouched bread into a plastic bag.
 Then one third of the class washed their hands with soap.One third used hand sanitizer.
One third did not use anything.Then we touched the bread.

We made predictions about which bread would have the most mould.
What is your prediction?? 
Check out the photos to see the results.

We learned that to stop germs you need to keep your hands clean!!
