**Note: Parents- you may find that some pages are not finished in some of the books as we

come to the end of the school year. This may be due to missing a day or may not have

been completed by myself or Ms. Casey during school.

Feel free to complete these in your own time over the summer if you wish!

couple of their suggestions into sentences and write some sentences using

these words.

* Geraldine the giraffe has some great videos on YouTube to help your child

revise all of the letter sounds and digraphs which we have covered in senior

infants. This week try and focus on these two sounds:

find in your garden or in your local area. Patterns are everywhere in nature, we just

have to look for them!

Art

Rainbow art ideas:

I came across some nice rainbow art activities this week and I thought it would best

to just post them all in case anyone is looking for some art ideas!

‘How to draw’ tutorials:

These videos are also really child-friendly and teach you to draw in a step by step

format. There are lots to choose from but I just attached a few that I thought

were cute!
