Week 2 Work Reminder

Hi Everyone,

Hope you all had a nice weekend especially all of the mammies! 😃

Below is just a reminder of the work that has been set out for week 2.

We understand how challenging it can be to maintain a timetable and routine at home particularly when parents still have to work from home. I hope Sinéad's email has clarifies our expectation, as we do not want anyone feeling under any more pressure at this already stressful time.

Thanks to those who took part in the quiz on Friday! It was a learning curve for us so we know for next week how to layout the answers as the quiz was very sensitive. Well done to everyone we hope you enjoyed it. Below is just a reminder of info you have already received.
The project is due this Friday and can be video and emailed to us. From the quiz we can see that there is such a wide range of animals being explored, hopefully we will be able to post some of the projects on the blog so you can learn about the other animals too.
