Ms. Clare – Rang a Ceathar agus rang a Cúig – Gaeilge
Ag tús na bliana, rinne muid plé ollmhór inár rang ar ábhar ‘Mé Féin’ le haghaidh Gaeilge. Bhí muid ag caint faoi muid féin, ar rudaí ar nós ár gcaitheamh aimsire, ár deatháireacha agus ár deirfiúracha, ár scoil, ár gcairde, gan ach roinnt a luath. Ar dtús, scríobh muid síos líosta de na ceisteanna áirithe bunaithe ar ‘Mé Féin’ inár gcóipleabhair. Bhí beagnach fiche ceist againn!! Ansin, scríobh muid síos ár freagraí le chéile mar rang. Chuir mé na scéalta go léir suas ar an gclár Gaeilge, chun deis a thabhairt do gach duine iad a léamh. Féach ar seo!
