Dia daoibh a scolairí,
Tá súil agam go bhfuil gach duine ceart go leor, slán agus sláintiúil. Go raibh maith agaibh as an obair a sheol sibh chugam. Thank you for the work students have sent and for the contact. I am giving feedback on this bit by bit. It is difficult for you to improve without some feedback so I encourage others to practise questions, to send them to me and to avail of this feedback during this month. Seol aon rud a dhéanann tú óna paipéir a chleachtamar roimhe seo. Send anything from any of the papers we have been doing up until now.
I am going to put in here today some revision notes from our filiocht agus 1 prós that may help.

I would like you all to start writing a diary of what you are doing everyday in Spanish. This can be written in your hardbacks or in a special book or online, but I think it would be nice for you to have a record of this exceptional time and doing it in Spanish makes it extra special!
I think we should park the Spanish papers for the minute and start learning about Health, Una cita con el medico, Unidad 10. This chapter also incorporates the Imperfect tense which is very important.
This week I would like us to look at the following work:
P338: read and do the questionsP339: fill in 10.1 BP340: read and answer questionsP341: 10.1 E, do the email (p105 of your learning diary)P342: 10.1 g look up online, 10.1 h label with the words below and also fill in page 112 of your learning diary.
Please send me a photo of your email and diary entries/ record by Friday.
That is all for now, please remember to keep a record of this exceptional time in Spanish.
