Aaron's Stories

Aaron has written two stories and he hopes you like them.

Once upon a time there was a boy. His name was Jack. His eyes were brown. His hair was black. He lived in Rush.He was 8. He lived in a big house. He loved football. One day Jack went to play in Reece's house. Jack's dad brought Jack to Reece's house. Reece and Jack played untill 5.00. Jack's dad fell and broke his foot. He said 'I will be on crutches for 6 weeks'. 'Oh no' said Jack. He was sad. He went to play football. He got €2. He ran to the shop.
Friday his mammy got a new car. 'It is cool' said Jack. One day Jack saw Aaron. Jack's mammy brought Jack to Aaron's house. When Jack went in to play, Aaron went in too. Jack went to play with his friends. He went to the woods and a bear ate Jack.


A SPOOKY STORY
Once upon a time there was a boy who lived in Rush. His name was Lee. His eyes were brown. He was as tall as a car. He thought he was cool.
One day Lee drove to the shop. He went to his house to get ready for football. He broke his foot. 'Oh no' said Jack,
One day he went to the woods. The wolfman jumped out of a bush. 'Aaaaaa' said Lee. The wolfman ate Lee. Jack went to look for Lee. The wolfman ate Jack too.

This year I will be working with some children in their classes, in my room and out in the garden. Aaron has written a poem for the blog and hopes you enjoy it.

Aaron’s Poem

I am a man

I have a van

I have a bear

And he has no hair


We are working in the garden. Mary gave us a plot to use. 

Jonathan worked hard spreading the compost. 

In the room we planted mustard and cress seeds.

Welcome back

Welcome back everyone. I hope you all had a lovely Easter holiday. Unfortunately Mr Ó Sé will be absent for a few weeks so I am acting principal in his place.
Mr Devine will be teaching in Room 4. The children are already working well with Mr Devine and I hope you all continue to work hard and get ready for fourth class.
I will be dropping in every so often to see how you are getting on.
We will start the children's blogs again from next week.

We have been learning about clothes, fabrics and design. We looked at clothes for celebrations from long ago, nowadays and from Nigeria.
Then we learned how cloth is made and tried weaving ourselves.

We had a great bud race in the class. We placed some twigs in water on 7 February and waited to see which would open it's buds first.
We waited for a few weeks and do you recognise which bud is the winner??

Hi my name is Aminat.  For my cyos I read a book. It was ‘Saffron, The Yellow Fairy’. It was a good book you should read it.

The House of A M.O.N.S.T.E.R.  

One day a little girl called Sophie moved into a new house in England. Her grandparents came too but she would miss her aunty and uncle. She would miss her friends and the rest of her family. Then when she got there she loved it but her house did not say a lot. When she was sleeping  she could hear noises like errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ,  creeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek, woooooooooooooooooooble , woooooooooooooooooooooooble,     aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh! Help, go, go, go, save yourself. Ruhhhhhhhhhhhhhn, maaaam! Help! What? I am hearing things.

Few, it was just a dream.     AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Hello it is me again Chloe Gilmartin and for what I am doing for you is   ‘Arthur Locked in the Library’. Arthur and Buster were walking up the school steps one morning when an angry voice shouted behind them. ‘Arthur,Arthur. Arthur turned. Buster turned too. The voice belonged to Francine. She was charging towards them. Muffy and Sue Ellen were with her. ‘What’s up?’ asked Arthur. Francine folded her arms. ‘I’ll tell you what’s up. You told everyone I looked like a marshmallow’. ‘I did’. That is all I will do for today. Till next time see u later. Chloe saying good bye.

Hello my name is Cian. I am reading a book called Super Diaper Baby 2. I am going to copy the words. But whatever the reason he stank or his dough, He stood up there hating the people below in the town. No one knows why he was feeling so ruthless...It could be because all his money was useless.

Hi my name is Eirinn. For my C.Y.O.S I made a pyramid out of cottonbuds and tape. First you get three cottonbuds and two bits of tape. You stick the three of the cottonbuds together. Do the same eight times and you have a pyramid. I also practised a poem.

Spring poem
The sun is out
The flowers are up.
It is nice outside.
We are having fun.
We are all happy.
Everyone is singing.
We love the sun.
It is so so so fun
By Stephanie Efeduwuyi

Hi my name is Samuel I wrote a poem
The little turtle there was a little turtle he lived in a box.
He swam in a puddle.
He climbed on the rocks.
He snapped at a mosquito,
He snapped at a flea,
He snapped at a minnow.
And he snapped at me.
He caught the mosquito,
He caught the flea,
He caught the minnow.
But he didn’t catch me.

today's blogs


Hello my name is Naana and I am going to write a story.
                        The boy who went into the spooky house.

Once upon a time there was a boy who saw a huge house. He went into the house and there was a ghost saying "wwwhhhooo". The boy was so scared he wanted to go home but the door was locked. He said “mommy I want to go home”. So he ran upstairs and when he went upstairs he saw 100000 bats coming from the wardrobe and he screamed. He said “bbaattss” and ran into a room and saw a girl behind him. The girl said “hello what’s your name?” He said “my name is Morgan Brown”. The girl said her name was Sophie Williams. So they got out the room and ran outside the back garden and saw all kind of monsters. There where hairy ones, three legged ones, four eyed ones and hungry ones. So they ran inside and got weapons and went out and killed the all the monsters. They ran back inside and went to the door and ran home. THE END


Hi my name is Nicole. This Sunday I was at beavers. The roof in the beaver den is falling down so beavers was in the school. We played games and sang songs. We had lots of fun.

hello

Hi my name is Kristians. I love money .You can buy anything you want. When it was my birthday I had €95. I was rich but I did not know what to buy?


Hi my name is Morgan. For my CYOS my dad and I made a volcano that explodes and I am going to tell you how to make one too. First you will need some chicken wire and if you don’t know what that is ask your dad. You will also need lots of newspaper, red and cream paint, vinegar, baking soda, red food colouring (optional), a spoon, PVA glue, a bottle the same size of the volcano for the end.
First get the chicken wire and make it into a volcano shape. Then get the PVA glue and put it into a basin. Then rip the newspaper into skinny rectangles. Put about 4 or 5 strips of the newspaper into the basin of PVA glue for about 10 seconds. Then stick them onto the chicken wire. You need to do put a few layers of the newspaper. When you have done this leave it to dry. When it is dry go over it with another layer of PVA glue. Then let that dry.
When that is dry paint the volcano peach or brown. Then paint the top red so it looks like lava. Then cut a hole on the top of the volcano. Get a bottle the same size of the volcano. Stick it in the volcano with the top of the bottle sticking out of the top.
Put the baking soda in the bottle and then put in the red food colouring. When you’re ready pour in some vinegar and sit back and watch it EXPLODE!!!!!!!!!. Well that’s all for me. Morgan, out, peace.
