Maths:  Money

Group 1: This week I would like you to spend time each day sorting coins into 3 different values 1c, 2c and 5c. Put a selection of coins on the table and try to sort them into the 3 values. if you can add in some 10c coins that would be great

Group 2: I would like you to count out different values of money using coins. Ask your parents to write down 5 different values each day and see can you find the coins that make that amount. Here are some examples of values you can count.

12c =10c+2c    48c = 20c=20c+5c+2c+1c

PE: Tune in to Joe Wicks every morning for some fun ways to keep fit.

Science: Listen to the weather forecast every day on TV. Can you find where Co. Louth is and what kind of weather we will have tomorrow? Look and see if there is a picture of the sun or some cloud over us. Look and see if you can spot any blackbirds in your garden. May is the month for Furze growing on the mountains or on the side of the road. See can you spot any near where you live.
