Fighting With Words

The boys had a great time at Fighting with words on Thursday. They put all of their great ideas together to make a terrific story called 'Harry's Big Fear'.
The story is about Harry the Fishfinger and his best friend Super Egg. Harry's dream is to become a Gaelic football player, lets hope the evil fork referee doesn't put a stop to Harry's dream!
You will have to read one of the boy's books to find out what happens to Harry:)

Autumn Poems

The class wrote lovely Autumn poems in class today.
Here are a few of them for you to enjoy. Well done boys!

Autumn
Apples are falling from the trees,
The trees are losing there leaves,
The trees are losing there branches,
The roots have stopped growing,
The barks are falling off.
By Jake

Autumn
All the trees,
Underneath, the leaves,
The trees are
Big Big Big,
All the leaves are blowing,
The leaves on the tree are falling down,
The trees are falling down...Oh No!
By Justin

Autumn

Apples fall,
Under the tree,
The leaves are falling,
Under the trees squirrels run.
My ma will take nuts home,
Nothing was there any more.

By Ross

Helen Keller

This week the class learned a little bit about the life of Helen Keller. Helen was both blind and deaf so with the help of her teacher she learned a unique way of communicating. By tracing the letters of words on her hand Helen was able to understand what her teacher was saying to her and in turn she was able to communicate with others. The boys had fun communicating with each other in this way!
