My first week of fun

This is actually really exciting, I've never blogged before so it's really different and fun. I also can't believe that a whole week has past in TY. You get up to so much in just one week. In TY the year is mixed into three new classes. They're called Cinealtas, Cairdeas and Síocháin. It was a bit weird at the beginning of the week not being with certain people from our old base classes but already class Síocháin (woah!) are having a great laugh together. Ms.H told us that we were the loudest class she teaches! :) Opps! 

This year we get the opportunity to try all of the subjects, even those that we hadn't done for the Junior Cert. In technology we're making a keyring while in music we're learning how to play the guitar! :) I know two chords so far! Major achievement! We've started loads of different projects including Junk Kouture in Home Economics and Art. We have also started Young Scientist in Science. At first it's difficult to come up with an idea but after a few brainstorming sessions the project begins to come to life and is really fun! The aim of Junk Kouture is to design and make a dress or outfit completely made out of recyclable materials! For my project we're making a Medusa themed dress. So far we've just started the paper maché.

Also in Geography we have to plan an around the world trip to 2 first, second and third world countries. Very exciting! However I just ended up spending  the geography class finding out whether Dubai was a country or city on the internet! It was quite funny really! :)
