2nd Last Day

The first class I was assigned to was room 13 and I took down pictures and hung up new ones. After I did a quick job for Ms.Murphy and went to each room to hand out book vouchers. I was then in room 19 and I firstly hung up pictures. After I went to each p.e storeroom to tidy them up. I went back to room 19 again and observed a lesson of history.

After little break I was in room 16 and helped the children with their maths. For the rest of the time I helped a teacher go to each class , pick students out and change a book from their classroom library to the main big library.

When big break was finished I was in room 6 senior infants and we got to do p.e in the hall. We played duck duck goose and the children had a good time. For the last hour I was in 6th class and the teacher gave me something to type up for the rest of the day.

I enjoyed the whole day and I am sad that next week is the last week. I will miss everyone and have enjoyed my experience.

Week 6

The first class I was in was 5th class room 19. The teacher firstly asked me to deliver a letter to each classroom in the room. I then had to pump up the balls in the small hall storage room & the big hall storage room. After I tidied up both storage rooms. When I was finished I went back to the class and we all went on the netbook's to research different history topics.

After little break I was in 4th class room 16. We were all doing division in maths and I was helping the children. I handed out icepops sticks so they could use them to help them with their division. The vice prinicipal Ms.M needed help in the office so I went down to her office and put copy covers on school novels until big break.

After big break I was in senior infants room 6 , they were all going to P.E for the rest of the day so I helped them all get ready then we went down to the hall. For the rest of their time in school we played duck duck goose! Since the infants went home I was meant to be in an older class and took pictures down in one class. For the rest of the day I went to the hall and listened to the choir. The choir were practising as they have the confirmation tomorrow.

I enjoyed the day a lot as it was very different from other days since I moved around more today.

Week 5

I firstly started off in 2nd class and we were doing art! All the children had made clay models in pairs two weeks before and had to paint them today. I helped set up all the tables with paint and everything. I went around asking the children about their clay model and we were all finished painting in an hour. After we had to take down the number of books each child read over the past week for the Readathon. I got to write down on the board the number of books they each read and overall the class read 385 books!
We then had little break and after I was back with the same class for another few minutes. The children were learning how to use a ruler and drawing lines different lengths. Next I was in 3rd class and the class were doing plans for stories.

For the next few minutes before big lunch I went to 6th class to give them a talk on secondary school. They all had a lot of questions and I think I helped a lot of them for what was ahead of them in the next few years. They were all very thankful for my help and I enjoyed telling them about it.

After big lunch I was back in 3rd class and they were doing maths this time. They were doing area in maths and all got little white squares with holes in them. They got plastic pins and used the pins to show the area of different numbers in the white squares. After maths we were doing english comprehensions. Some people in the class had harder questions depending on their level. For the rest of the day we played little maths games and other fun games.

I enjoyed the day a lot and it was my favourite day so far in Scoil Mochua work experience. I am sad that it will be soon over but I am glad that I got to do work experience there.

Week 3

I started off the day in 4th class and introduced myself to everyone & sat at the back of the class. I went around and helped all the students. The last thing I did before little break was hang pictures up. After little break I was in the same class again and helped all the students out with the laptops. I also folded sheets of paper for the students projects. After 4th class I was in 6th class and I firstly cut out bookmarks and laminated them for the students.I was also minding the students before lunch as their teacher was on yard duty.After big lunch I cut out words and laminated all them to stick them up on the wall.
I enjoyed all the day.
