Here are the answers to some of this week's homework. As I've said, keep a record of things you were stuck on or that you found confusing and we can get back to it. I will organise correction of Guns of Easter work and Gaeilge after the Easter holidays.

Mo Scoil
Freastlaím ar scoil Réalt na Mara i mBaile Uí Mhornáin i gCo na Mí. Is scoil lán cailíní í. Tá mé i rang a sé. Miss Brodigan is ainm do mo mhúinteoir. Oibrím go dian gach lá. Gach maidin, déanaimid mata, Gaeilge agus Béarla. Bíonn an lón againn ag a haon a chlog. Gach trathnóna, déanaimid ábhar éagsúla (various subjects) mar stair, eolaíocht, tíreolaíocht, ceol nó drama. Déanaimid ealaín gach Aoine. Bíonn corpoideachas againn gach Céadaoin agus Aoine. Is fear liom *name a subject you like* mar tá sé easca. Ní maith liom *name a subject you don’t like* mar tá sé leadránach (boring). Caithimid éide scoile ar scoil. Caithimid geansaí dúghorm, léine bán, sciorta dúghorm, carbhat dearg agus riteoga dúghorm le bróga dubha. An bhliain seo chugainn rachaidh mé go dtí an mheánscoil. Sacred Heart/Coláiste na hInse/Drogheda Grammar/Loreto/ Greenhills... is ainm don mheánscoil. Tá mé ag tnúth go mór leis (I’m looking forward to it).
