The brief, as put to the class: A good musical instrument is one on which you could play the tune of Three Blind Mice and which is strong/durable, nicely decorated and loud enough to be heard from a distance. The instruments were nothing short of fantastic! The girls were tasked with playing their tune, solo or as part of a band and were marked on their performance and on the instrument itself. Thanks to everyone for the huge effort! Special mention to those at home, who helped out in so many ways. See our photos below.

Both 3rd classes went on tour last Tuesday to the Indoor Arena in the National Sports Campus (Blanchardstown). They had an absolutely amazing day. They got to take part in so many fun activities with some great coaches-gymnastics, athletics (long jump, high jump, relays, obstacle course..), football, basketball, trampolining, parachute games and more.
Well done to all the girls in 3rd class for being so great all day:-).
This week as we continue with Non-Violence we are talking about 'Avoiding Hurting Others'. Room 20 are watching this for their homework but if anyone else would like to look at it we would love to hear your thoughts too.:-)
Watch the video and leave a comment or write about the video in your values copy. 
Check out the video below to see what Room 20 have been up to during March and April. It includes Seachtain na Gaeilge, Active Schools Week, our values work, International Women's Day, some of the work we did with our student teacher Ms. Balfe and more.
Well done on all your hard work girls. SOUND We have been looking at sound this week. We have learned that sound is a form of energy and have investigated how sound waves travel. We have listened to and identified a variety of sounds in the environment. See our Picasso- inspired collage work below. In 1912, Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) made a guitar. Cobbled together from cardboard, paper, string and wire, materials that he cut, folded, threaded, and glued, Picasso's silent instrument resembled no sculpture ever before seen. We are going to design and make our own musical instruments next week. Keep an ear out! 
Check out our latest slideshow to see what 3rd class have been up to in January and February. Enjoy!

"How can we be so different and feel so much alike?" "And how can we feel so different and be so much alike?"
