Learning at Home, 25-29 May
Good morning! This week’s work is organised for you in a daily schedule grid, at the end of the Learning at Home document. Organise your day to suit your family and your household. Do as much as you can from the list each day, but do focus in particular on the core subjects: English, Maths and Irish.
Try your best, but if you can’t do something, move on to the next thing on your list. Ask me if you have any questions at all. Déan do dhícheall! I look forward to seeing your work on Seesaw
Worksheets for revising multiplication tables
Georgian Dublin
Georgian Dublin describes a time in history (1714 to 1830) when Dublin grew as a city. During this time period, four Georges were king and ruled over Great Britain and Ireland. Hence the word Georgian.
Houses built at this time had a particular style of architecture, they were all similar and very symmetrical. The Casino in Marino is a magnificent and local example of architecture of this time.
Have a look at my Power point presentations which will help you to learn more:
In the Power points there are links to interesting videos and virtual tours- Please ask your parents before clicking on any link.
Here is a worksheet, which, if you have access to a printer, you might enjoy. It relates directly to the Virtual Tour of No. 29 Fitzwilliam Street. It is very good but quite long so you may not want to print all of it.
Handel’s Messiah
Handel’s ‘Messiah’ was first performed in Georgian Dublin in 1742 on Fishamble St, close to Christchurch Cathedral. The performance was so popular, that the organisers worried that everyone wouldn’t fit in the hall. So they asked ladies to wear no hoop under their skirt, and for gentlemen to leave their swords at home.

Hi girls,
I really hope you all had a fabulous weekend and didn’t get blown away, it was certainly a windy one!
Remember, as always, to do your best. Everyday is different and is going to have different challengers, some days will be harder then others and thats OK!
Don’t forget that you can ask me any question you want on seesaw or get your parents to email me at schoolclosure2ndclass@belgroveseniorgirls.ie – I would love to help in any way that I can!
If you didn’t collect your maths book, let me know and I can email you pictures of the pages 🙂
Have a super week girls, I really look forward to hearing from you all.
Ms Duffy
Week 25.05.2020
Hello Ladies and welcome back to another week of school at home!
This week we have a new chapter with an old topic in maths – percentages! There’s a lot of work in Busy @ Maths, so you just do what you can, don’t feel that you have to finish every page. I’m also giving you a large topic in History – there’s a whole lot to listen to, but not a lot of writing to do. This topic is a good chance to work on your note-taking skills!!
I’m hoping to take delivery of a new microphone for my computer this week, so with a bit of luck (and some finger crossing), I’ll have improved my recordings on Seesaw in no time! 🤞🤞
Here’s the work for the week – all the additional stuff is up on Seesaw!!
Have a great week girls!!!😁😁
Ms. Carroll 🤗

Dia daoibh!
I hope you all had a lovely weekend. 🙂
We are starting a new project on Brazil this week. I would like you to spend this week researching the topic. I have attached powerpoints and websites where you can gather your information for your project.
I would like you all to revise the musical notes below so that you can participate in the music activities on Seesaw.
I hope you all have a lovely week and I am looking forward to seeing and hearing from you on Seesaw 🙂

Hi girls,

You are all amazing!
Here is this week’s plan of work. Also attached below are some sheets you could use to practise your tables.
Deán do dhicheall!

Hi girls!
I hope you all had a lovely weekend! I am so impressed with all of your work on seesaw. You are doing a fabulous job.
This week we are starting a new SESE project all about Brazil! It is to be completed over a number of weeks. I would like you to spend this week researching the topic and I am adding in some powerpoint presentations and websites on the blog here to help you familiarise yourself with this topic.
Remember start each day afresh and focus on that days work please. Prioritise your English, Irish and Maths work first. Seesaw activities can be answered on the app and shouldn’t take too long. They can help you develop your typing skills and have a break from all the handwriting.
I hope you all have a lovely week! I’m so proud of all your hard work.
