Third Class had author Natasha Mc a’Bháird in to visit and read to us.  We also had some fantastic costumes on the day and even a specially written WBD song performance!  We also had a book swap in class.

Third class have been working really hard on their first big history project – “Ancient Egypt”.  We have learned all about the Pharaohs, the Pyramids, the importance of the River Nile, King Tutankhamun, Gods and Goddesses and the sarcophagus.  We each presented our project in class; some used posters, some had a booklet format, some did a PowerPoint presentation and someone even made an Ancient Egypt Times.  We also made something to go with our projects!  Everyone did amazing work and our classroom displays looked fantastic!

Mrs. Duffy’s third class were hoping for snow this January but we’ve had none yet!  We used chalk to create these lovely snow scenes.

3rd class are getting really excited about Hallowe’en!  We have been looking at the tradition of this festival in History, and for Art we designed super witches boots using some recycled materials.
