Belgrove Senior Girls' School

A good project is easy to read and the information is presented neatly.  Here are some guidelines to help you.

• The title of your project is Great Britain and it is due on Monday 20th December 2021 (before Christmas Holidays).
• Projects are to be 2 pages of an A3 scrapbook- ( no longer than 3).
• Project must be handwritten in your own words.
• Project must include a Map of Britain (which I will give the girls). Include on this map the major cities, mountains, rivers and seas.
• Project must include at least 3 pictures or diagrams. They can be hand drawn or printed.

Here are some ideas of paragraphs to include, remember you don’t have to include all of them! Please choose 4 topics from this list to include in your project.

1. Where is Great Britain? How can you get there?
2. What countries make up Great Britain? What are the capital cities?
3. Draw the Flag of Great Britain and Flags of England, Scotland, Wales
4. Physical Geography- lakes, rivers, mountains, sea
5. Famous Landmarks- natural or manmade
6. What money is used in Great Britain? What jobs are there?
7. What sports are popular in Great Britain? What are the most famous? Where are they played?
8. Any event in history that involves England, Scotland or Wales
9. The Monarchy ( Kings and Queens)
10. Famous people from Great Britain? ( pop stars, artists, politicians, sports stars, authors)
11. Animals and Wildlife: What animals would you find there? Can you draw them and write about them? Are there any Zoos or parks?
12. Brexit – what is Brexit and how it effects Ireland.

Hi girls!!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I can’t believe we’re in the final two weeks of school!! Where did the time go? You’re all doing such a fantastic job at working from home, I’m so proud of my Room 2 girls! 😊

The work for this week is a little different to other weeks, there are a few surprises included which I hope you’ll enjoy!! 🙂

I know it’s tricky to stay motivated at times, but I know everyone is trying their best – you’re all super! 🌟 Remember, you don’t have to complete everything. Start with the core subjects – English, Gaeilge and Maths. Then look at the other subjects and suggestions. Do what works best for you and your family and make sure to spend time doing things you enjoy 👍

If you need any help with anything or have any questions you can let me know on Seesaw. I really enjoy seeing all your amazing work and hearing about all the fun activities you’ve been up to – keep sending it in! 😊

Have a fantastic week girls,

We have a fresh week ahead of us again 🙂 Remember to create a neat, comfortable work space for yourself and try to work as independently as you can. Read the questions and instructions at least twice before completing your work and take your time. Déan do dhícheall and if you have any questions or you’re finding something a bit tricky, write to me on Seesaw – I’d love to help you out 😊

Hello my lovely Room 2 ladies 🙂

Just a little note to say that I’ll be thinking of you on ‘2nd Class Day’. It’s a pity that we can’t all be together celebrating the First Holy Communion at this time. However, I’d like to wish you a very Happy 2nd Class Day and I hope you spend time doing things you really enjoy this weekend!

There are lots of other people thinking about you at this time as well. If you go for a walk/cycle this weekend have a look at the windows you pass for some fabulous posters the other Belgrove girls have made for you specially for 2nd Class Day! A big thank you to them all 🙂 Check out Seesaw for other special messages!

I’m thinking of you all and missing you very much!! I hope you have a wonderful weekend with your family filled with fun and laughter,

Ms. Daly 🙂

Hi girls!!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed the lovely sunshine 🙂

I am so impressed with all of the work I am seeing on Seesaw. You’ve all been working incredibly hard and should be very proud of yourselves! As well as having a class full of bakers I also have a class of inventors – your creations for the STEM activities were amazing!! Keep up the fantastic work!

Below you will find the work for this week. Remember: Déan do dhícheall and make sure to focus on your handwriting. If you can’t do something that’s ok – you can ask me questions on Seesaw.

We all know that this week should have been a very special one! It’s very sad that we can’t all be together to celebrate the First Holy Communion, but check the blog on Friday for a special message!! 🙂

I hope you all have a fantastic week! I’m missing you all very much but I’m looking forward to hearing from you on Seesaw!
