History

Our school is very interested in Clontuskert’s history as well. We were so interested that we decided to do a project on ringforts in Clontuskert. There are 204 ringforts in Clontuskert. We are going to make a film on one of the nearest ringforts. We are also reading books to do with ringforts. 3rd and 4th are reading “NUALA AND HER SECERT WOLF” and 5th and 6th are reading “THE DRUID’S TUNE”. My name is Buttercup. My interests are camogie, reading, playing music and singing. Our school has a blog too. Just go to www.clontuskert.scoilnet.ie.
I hope you will visit and like our blog. Have a nice 29th of February! BY BUTTERCUP.

English and Theme

At school, in English we are doing adverts. An advert is something that makes you want to by/use something or someone. We are really enjoying this subject because we get to listen, watch and look at adverts during classes. We have also been doing persuasive language. Persuasive language is a form of language that draws you in- makes you want that thing that they are persuading you to get. In theme we are doing the ancient egyptians; They built the ancient pyramids, the sphinxs and many different temples and buildings as well. We are really enjoying our lessons and we look forward to them.

Being a rebel, question mark anyone?

Well, 16 years ago my mother was in the hospital as I was ready to come out. I was almost a leap year baby, so I would be 4 years old right now, but I ended up coming the next day on March 1st. For that reason, leap year is an almost cool, not quite as cool as tomorrow, but still pretty cool day.

Facts about Germany

Germans are the second largest beer consumers in the world, after the Irish (of course).

Beer is officially considered a food in Bavaria.

Michael Ballack does not like beer.

Germany is Europe’s largest economy.

The most popular German surname (Nachname) is Müller.

Chancellor Angela Merkel has a Barbie doll made after her.

Historically, Germany was known as the Holy Roman Empire, the Kingdom of Prussia, and the Weimar Republic.

31% of the country has been kept with forests and woodlands, with Hesse having the most.

There are over 300 kinds of bread in Germany.
There are also bread museums.

There are 35 dialects of the German language.

The Wittelsbachs ruled Bavaria for 738 years.

Munich is further north than any major US city (excluding Alaska).

German is the official language of 5 countries: Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Luxembourg and Liechtenstein. It is also spoken in Northern Italy and the French provinces of Alsace and Lorraine.

Germany is the first country to adopt Daylight Saving Time (DST) in 1916.

2% of Germans do not own cell phones.

Gummy bears were invented by a German.

The balcony of the hotel Michael Jackson dangled his son over is in Berlin.

While it is called Oktoberfest, it actually starts in Steptember.
The first Oktoberfest was a wedding celebration for Prince Ludwig of Bavaria.

65% of the Autobahn (highway) has no speed limit.

The Cologne Cathedral took 632 years to build. (Bill Bryson in Neither Here Nor There (p. 88) wrote: “It is absolutely immense, over 500 feet long and more than 200 feet wide…It can hold 40,000 people. You can understand why it took 700 years to build – and that was with German workers. In Britain they would still be digging the foundations.”)

The first printed book was in German.

German is the third most commonly taught language worldwide.

When JFK visited Berlin, he infamously said “Ich bin ein Berliner,” which also translates to “I am a jelly donut.”

Hugo Boss designed the official uniforms for the Nazi Party and Hitler Youth. (I did an assignment on this for German class if anyone is interested in reading more about it)

To ask for a beer in a pub, you would use your thumb to indicate “one” rather than your index finger (watch Inglorious Basterds for improper examples of ordering beer)

Til Schweiger, sometimes known as the “German Brad Pitt,” is born one day after Pitt.

The longest word published in the German language is Donaudampfschifffahrtselektrizitätenhauptbetriebswerkbauunterbeamtengesellschaft (79 letters). Try saying that five times fast.

DWJS

We have been learning about the Victorians and I have learned about Isambard Kingdom Brunel in particlular. I am going to tell you some facts about him.He lived in Portsmouth and he is well known for his abillty to construct lots of bridges and vidacuts. He made ways to move around from place to place.Without his abillty to construct all of these buildings we would not be able to use all of them now.

Technology

The phone i am using at the moment is a blackberry curve 8520 its one of the old ones…it has bbm ‘blackberry messenger’… bbm is like msn but on your phone its a cheaper way to chat with the friends and you are always online! also on the phone it has a camera (3.2 megapixels), internet, games, video camera, voice recorder and much more. the only bad thing about blackberrys is that the battery drains so quickly because it has so much stored onto it! i have to charge my phone twice a day!

Snow comes twice a year

Snow Comes Twice A Year

Hi,
I am Niki,I am 8 years old and I just discovered we have snow twice a year. Because you see now it is February and it’s 2012 so then, it’s going to snow again in December.Well, that means extra fun for the young ones.
It would be better if it snowed all the time, every day,every min,every hour etc.

To me snow is magical because it glitters’ in the night and in the morning and its puffy just like fur.
It also looks so fun to play with and make snow angels.

Zombies on Mars

My wish for the future is that there will be a military base on mars on which will be a training ground for soldiers and used for experiments with bombs and weapons.
Mars will be a perfect spot for this because its so boring on the surface and its so far away from earth. This will make it safe.
The soldiers on mars could practice by fighting purpose built zombies

That extra day!!

As usual my morning is always manic, getiing 3 children up and ready for school, doing breakfast, tidying up, packing lunchboxes!!! Ground hog day!! Then its the manic rush to get the kids to school whereby i regualary experience episodes of road rage as i comment on other peoples driving skills!! Wonder what people say about mine – lol. They were saying on the radio this morning that today is the day that women can propose to men. I actually proposed to my husband but didnt do it in a leap year – just when i thought the time was right!! Any back to work life – Work is always different every day, I NEVER know what to expect. I work as a teaching assistant in a secondatry school (11-16). I help assist students with their learning and this brings lots of challenges but also some fantastic moments and some great laughs.- i actually really enjoy my job. I have a training session after school where we are going to learn about how to help the students that are from lower income families and people on free school meals – research shows that students who receive free school meals are oftern underachiebers and we are trying to close the gap between them and those not on FSM. Should be interesting to hear how they think this can be done.!!!

Scuba Diving Lesson
Hi people,
I am Andrei and I am 9 years old.I am from Bucharest,Romania.The next Tuesday I will take scuba diving lessons.I have to read 191 pages about scuba diving.I will have a test to see if I know.I will use a mask and an oxygen tube.I think that will be cool.My dad also will go with me because he want’s to do scuba diving, too.I will dive up to 4 meters.The divers that get in the ocean have to use signs to see if they are O.K.When divers get out from the sea or from the ocean they have to clean their oxygen tube because the salt destroys them.They also have to be careful at the sharks when they are in the ocean.They use a cage when there are many sharks so they can be protected from bad animals that live in there.
This day is a special day.Happy blogging day.

Snow comes twice a year

Snow Comes Twice A Year

Hi,
I am Niki,I am 8 years old and I just discovered we have snow twice a year. Because you see now it is February and it’s 2012 so then, it’s going to snow again in December.Well, that means extra fun for the young ones.
It would be better if it snowed all the time, every day,every minute,every hour etc.

To me snow is magical because it glitters’ in the night and in the morning and its puffy just like fur.
It also looks so fun to play with and make snow angels.
