JEP

The week ended with all of us in the class very busy 

doing Market Research

 for our Junior Entrepreneur "Big Idea"

Different groups of us carried out different research with some groups doing surveys of children in our school.

Some of us took part in a focus group with teachers of Infants, 1st and 2nd class

And finally the third group carried out interviews with parents.

We are looking forward to analysing this research next week and making a final decision on the type of story book we will create 

.

The children asked teachers to put on their parents hat while carrying out this interview

Thanks to all the teachers for giving up their time.

 

 

Music Workshop

Sixth class really enjoyed the music workshop facilitated by Sue and the music students from Cavan College

The workshop gave the girls lots of confidence and by the end of it lots of the girls were confident enough to sing both in groups and individually.  They also enjoyed composing and performing their group piece. It was great fun

The Dragons were a hard bunch to please but the high standard of ideas and presentations put forward by the girls left them dumbfounded.  

They really believe that some of the children have bright futures as entrepreneur.

After much deliberation the class have finally come up with their 

"BIG IDEA"
