Well, it's that time of the week again where I am going to tell you all about my week! So, my week started out on Thursday because I was absent on the other days! So on Thursday morning we had a talk on homelessness and the Simon Community. Ms. O'S gave it to us because she has first hand experience with the Simon Community! She told us there is other things for people to do for the homeless other than just giving them soup. It was very interesting to hear about! Later on we had History with Ms.C and she showed us pictures of different castles and how they changed from a defensive home to palaces really! We had Spanish and since it was Thursday we got to watch some of our movie! Which is really good! In Irish with Ms.B we read a drama called Deirdre's Sorrow! After that we had Mini Company! Our Mini Company is coming along good we should be ready to sell in a few weeks! In Careers we started to do a person spec. for a job! I also had Ms. W for English so that meant we worked on our life story presentation which will be really cool when it's finished!
On Friday the day started out really good! Our first class was Maths and since we are doing Cryptography we are watching the Nicholas Cage movie National Treasure! It is such a good movie! We had Spanish too and Ms.M told us what number we would be for our orals with is really exciting because I've never done a proper oral before! In Religion we worked on our drama a bit more. We had a really fun Music class with Ms.S we song the song "I Follow Rivers" by Lykke Li which was the song we all sung in Carlingford so there was good memories too! Then we tried to play it on piano, I wasn't very good but I had fun trying! We had Geography and we going to do a case study on the hair industry in India which will be really cool I think! We had Design after that which meant JunkKoutre and we decided that we were going to feather the back of the top too! But disaster struck, our skirt went all black so we have to re-leave it again but there are no more green leaves left so it's going to be brown instead! Hopefully it will look okay! I think that's all I have to say! Over and Out, Corrie!
So, it's the second week after mid term and I am still going strong! It has been another fun packed week in TY. It started off on Monday in Art which means it was time for Junk Koutre! We started sewing on the feathers onto our top! which proved to be an awkward job! On Tuesday I had Tech. with Mr. W which was really fun! We all worked on our Formula 1 project which I am Team Manager on! We also started Cryptography in Maths which is really interesting! Then we had Home Ec. were we continued to sew on the feathers and fixed up the head piece which is back to being a birds nest! Wednesday was next and I had Work Experience! On Thursday we had Mini-Company and I started to design a poster for advertising and we also came up with a name and slogan! we are now called "SportScope" and our slogan is "Shoot for the Stars." I also had English with Ms.W and we worked on our Life Story Presentation which will be really cool when it's finished! We also started watching a new movie in Spanish! So far it looks good! On Friday we had Religion with Ms.G and we entered into a drama contest! Our group is doing it on homelessness and how people look down on homeless people even though it could very easily be them on the streets! I wrote a rough outline of the script and some of the girls looked at music and lighting too! We also had Music were we are learning the piano, I am not very good but I enjoy it all the same! We had Design too so that meant more JunkKoutre and we finished our feathers and are starting to fill in the white gaps on the top with felt that's blue so it looks like the sky! I had I.T too on Friday and Mrs.L was telling us how she would like us to make a video of the school so all incoming first years could have a proper look around the school! We started making a list on how we would like to film it and if it all goes to plan it will be deadly! I guess that's it for this week! Over and Out, Corrie!
Well, It's November already! My first week after mid-term and I have to say it's been one of the best so far! Well, it all began on Monday when we had Art which meant more JunkKoutre! We figured out how to make our owls body stick onto the t-shirt! After that we had P.E with Mr. L, which is not my best subject(I'm not the best at sport!) but we did High Jump which I was surprised, I wasn't that awful at it! On Monday, we also had English which was good because we talked about the song Viva La Vida by Coldplay as a poem which was really interesting! Tuesday came and went in a flash! We had Religion, and we watched the debate on the Children's referendum, I liked this because it actually effects me! Then came Tech. with Mr.W and we did more work on the Formula 1 Competition which I['m really starting to get into! It's so fun! We had Home Ec. with Ms.McC in the afternoon and that meant more JunkKoutre! We tried to stick on our owl and it didn't go to plan, but we soon figured out what wen had to do and we got half of it done! Wednesday I had work experience, so look at my other blog to find out all about that! Then it was Thursday, one of the best days of school so far. It began just as normal, and we all headed out to the Odeon Cinema in Naas for our Mini-Company Meeting but the lady from the Enterprise Board was unfortunately sick! That was bad for her but kinda brilliant for us because we got to watch ... Skyfall!!! The new James Bond movie! Which I have been dying to see! It is absolutely amazing! I loved it! to top it all off we all got popcorn, jellies, drinks and these cool cups! It was the best!
