Mrs Hutchinson's Class 1999 - 2000

In P.7 the class have built 3D shapes out of artstraws and written descriptions and done a lot of work on the Famine and investigating differences in pictures from the past.

When in P.6 (Mr. Livingston) the class did the following:
Cultra Residential

P.6L went from 17th-19th February on a residential at the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum, Cultra with St. John the Baptist Boys, Finaghy.
The school recently bought several Apple eMate computers so that children can wordprocess and draw at their desks in the classroom. The eMates can be connected to a computer and the information transferred so that it can be uploaded to the school's web site. 
As children's work becomes available I will post it here.
The children have been writing descriptions of aliens following work on the poem "The Marrogg" as they have been looking at adjectives.
The children wrote acrostic poems on Autumn and have being examining Cinquain poems which have five lines.
Line 1 - The title
Line 2 - Two adjectives describing the title
Line 3 - Three verbs
Line 4 - A phrase or sentence
Line 5 - A similar word to the title
From the 17th - 19th February 1999 the children were on a residential to Cultra. You can see the finished reports of the trip are now on each child's page.

Ormeau Park.


In the olden day's rich people went to Ormeau Park. You would never see poor people there it's not much different to-day. Some of the nature is still there to-day like the trees, people and of course the beutiful lake. The olden day picture I have is taken in the early 1890's which is nt long ago. People who went to Ormeau Park would of wore lovely clothes some of us to -day would have worn dressy clothes. the men would have worn suits with kind of a straw hat and the women would have worn dressy hats and lovely desses.

THE FAMINE


In 1854 the potatoes failed to grow and people started to starve. After sometime people got a disease and died. people emigrated to America in ships called coffin ships. Coffin ships were there nick name because so many people died on it. It takes about 6 weeks to cross the sea. Some people went to the work house people were thrown out of there house because they could not pay. People rioted outside places for food which was terrible. 1,000,000 people died

Making a cube

First we got 1 piece of straw out of the six. Then we cut it into 6 peices in 6cm each.We took four pieces of straw from the six pieces we cut, then put masking tape over it and made a square. Then we put four bits of straw going down the way. Then made a square again and made a cube.

Triangular Prism

1.First we got six long pieces of straw then we cut them accurately in to 8cm percisely;you need six of your art straws.
2. After that you get a long strong piece of masking tape then cut small pieces of the thick masking tape and cut it in half and you don't need to cut it accurately.
3. Then get three neat pieces of straw tape them accuratly together to make a triangle do this again then join it neatly to make a neat triangular prism (There You Have It.)

The Alien

One day I was walking through the woods and I bumped into this huge tall thing. He thirteen foot tall. He had bright yellow hair. He had four antennae with huge eye balls put on top of his four antennae and if stuff was higher than him he would take off his bright red eye balls off the antennae and hold them up. He had a long spiky nose with multicolour all over him. His face is like a huge black balloon with green lips. He had no neck, a skiny stomach three arms, one finger on each hand and one toe on each foot. He had a purple ear for his belly button and one cheek and he does not breathe and nobody knows how he can stay alive with out breathing. He has got one leg and four feet one of the feet is size small three, big three, small one and big thirteen. He has one long eye at the back of his head. His bright yellow hair is down to his feet. He smokes three cigars in his mouth all together and he stinks.

THE POTATO


This picture tells us about the familys finding out about the blight this was alfully hard for the familys because they depended on them . Earlier it was said that Sir Walter Raleigh was the first man to bring the potato to Ireland and he was to be bleamed for this matter.The reason why people depended on the potatoes was because the potatoes gave them good and healthy food.It was very frighting because people were dying not only of the famine but of the starvation people had.

Some indications that these things are not happening now is that the clothes they are wearing certainly aren't similar to the clothes were wearing now. Another difference is that if you look closely at the pram it is very different to the ones we see today.As well you notice that it is only the rich that are there .Also another noticeable thing would be that it was quite common to wear black especially on Sunday.

In Ireland long ago a devastating disease occured
Millions fled to America in hope of finding a new world
People called this the blight 
There was not a healthy body in sight
It caused millions of deaths and lots of despair
Workhouse were crowded everywhere 
To people this was a nightmare
Dead bodies were found everywhere.

Ormeau Park

This picture shows rich peole taking a walk in Ormeau Park.These people look rich because of what they are wearing.Some of them are wearing big hats which my friends say look like a satellite dish.Ormea Park has certainly changed now.Our class think that in the picture it is a Sunday because all the men are wearing a suit and there are about 60 people there.The children are even wearing big hats and suits.I do not like the looks of it because they don't look very clean.

Eviction

In our picture people are being evicted. On the roof people are trying to smoke the family out of their home. The landlord or landagent is on a horse. People are begging the landlord to give them another chance. Soldiers are making sure people get out of their house without rioting. People are watching in shame as the family beg on their knees. In fields behind the cottage children are playing without knowing what is going on.Some people walk by as if nothing is happening around them. We feel people should not be treated like this.

Whining people rioting,fighting.

Ulster Folk And Transport Museum Residential

On the 17th of February we went on a residential. That day we did a fire drill. That night we went to Bangor Castle Lesuire Centre for a swim, we also had a birthday party for Jill and watched Casper Meets Wendy. After Casper we went to bed. In dorm 4 we were telling ghost story's, Sarah told this really gruesome story.It was all about a sycopath girl. The next morning we had breakfast, I had Rice Krispies. After breakfast we went on a scavanger hunt. David Dawson, Kerri Dawson, Charmain Winsor and Aaron Moffat were in my group. When we came back there was a band called Jig Time.One person played the violin another played the uillean pipes another played the jaw's harp.The man who played the jaw's harp said if you aren't careful you could have your tongue. After Jig Time we had lunch.

That night we went to a Barn Dance,taught by Mr. Patterson. Leah McDowell was my partner, we did I Ga Do, The Birdie Song,The Macerena and The Hokey Cokey. Near the end we had to make up our own dance to Cotton Eye Joe. Later on that night we watched Richie Rich.When we went to bed that night instead of telling ghost stories we told funny stories about a little boy being chased by a tiger! The next day we went farming.We got to feed the sheep, ride a donkey and see the new born calves.After farming we went on a woodland trail.After that we went to the shop,when we got back from the shop we had lunch. After our lunch we made a patchwork quilt.Then we went home.

We where early getting there,so we went for a walk outside.The lady who was in charge is called Madeline.She told us all the rules and regulations,and anwered all our questions(you could also call her "She Who Must Be Obeyed"). First we where shown our dorms and told there would be a fire drill in a few minuts.We where showen where the fire door was, how to get out of the building and where to line up.We had to be quiet,but everyone went mad!When we got back in we went to our dorms and unpacked.My dorm had 4 bunk-beds,a locker and a wardrobe.Nearly every day we went for long walks.It was sore on our on our legs but we lived through it to tell the tale.On Thursday we went to a Barn Dance and learned how to line dance.Your partner could be a girl or a boy. My partner was Jade Mc Cleary.While we where dancing Mr.Livingston was taking photographs of us.He took photographs of us in the Common Room to.We where embaressed and we hid behind our friends.Also the man who told us what to do in the Barn Dance was called Mr.Patterson. We went for a Scavenger Hunt to find different objects.It was Jill Thomson's birthday and she had brought a catapillar cake with her.So after the boys had watched Match Of The Day we had a party and watched Casper Meets Wendy.Most people fell asleep that night and the night we watched Richine Rich,so in the middle of the film it was stopped and Mr.Livingston woke them up and they where put to bed.Sometimes to keep ourselves occupied when we where waiting for something we played Apple,Apple,Apple.Every one was called a fruit and some one was in the middle.It was great funand we played it for about fifteen minits at a time.When we went for walks we where put into groups with teacher in each group.The teacher in charge of the group I was in was called Mr.Grant.On Wednesday we went to Bangor Lesure Centre.There was a children's swimming pool for under eight's which was about a quarter of a meter deep. A pool for learners which was about half a meter deep.There was also a family pool which was deep and shallow,and a pool to dive into from two diving boards.The learers pool was really warm and the family pool was really cold.So for fun my friends and I went into the warm pool got out quickly and jumped into the cool pool and it gave us quite a shock!We were not allowed to dive from the diving board but I don't know why.To get there we had to take the train so we had to take the train home,but some people got a giant gobstopper so they had to take it out of there mouth's until they got home.
Once when we went for a walk we went to a cottage to make candles.A very kind lady helped us make them.The colour of the wax was light blueand I thouht it was a very nice colour.What you had to do was...There was a pot of hot wax on a chair and you had to go round the table every time dipping your piece of wick into the wax and letting it dry,dipping it in letting it dry and so on.It gets thicker every timeand eventuly you have a thick candle ready for burning.The lady asked if you would like your candle twisted,nail patterned or left classical(which means left the way it was.)
One day we where all called to the Common Room after our walk for a special occasion.This group called "Jig Time"had come to entertain us.A woman had a fiddle,one man had a boran,another man had villean pipes and another man told stories and had a little instrument called the jaw's harp which made a twanging noise.They entertained us for an hour and then they whent home.
On all of our walks we went to urban and rural house's.One of the old buildings was The Northern Bank.It had 9 rooms in it and was very old.In most old houses there where lovely patchwork quilt's on the beds and they must have been very warm on cold nights.We went there for three days and got there and came back on a bus.I was kind of glad to be home because I missed my warm comfy bed and my mum and dad but I would like to go back again.

THE POTATO


This picture tells us about the familys finding out about the blight this was alfully hard for the familys because they depended on them . Earlier it was said that Sir Walter Raleigh was the first man to bring the potato to Ireland and he was to be bleamed for this matter.The reason why people depended on the potatoes was because the potatoes gave them good and healthy food.It was very frighting because people were dying not only of the famine but of the starvation people had.

by Catherine -anne. and Julie-Ann

 

FAMINE

Fever stalks the land,
All are diying everywhere,
Many have emigrated to a country with food,
In the soup kitchens so full, children have died,
Nothing to eat no where to stay,
Everywhere needs shelter,Theres no way out.

BY JULIE-ANN

 

A National School in 1902

What I see is a little school in North Thomas street .The children in it look like the age of 5 to 11years of age.Out side the building are a few children who look like their not wearing a school uniform.The clothes their wearing is a pinifore over a dress for girls and a cap,shirt and trousers for the boys.The footpaths are made of cobble stones which look sore on the childrens feet because they are not wearing any shoes .The buliding has two entrances and five windows which look very dirty.

Famine

Fever came and killed people
After a year about a million people died 
Millions of people emigated to America
Ireland was strock in 1845 
No body was ever fat 
Everyone had little food.

Dying was very hard for loved ones
Every one was poor
Some people looked like a walking skeleton 
People were very ill with fever 
After about 8 or 9 years the famine ended
Ireland was free again
Rescued from despair.

One Monday I saw an alien . It had one deep green eye and the other was bright red . It had blue arms and six fingers and eight toes . The alien had red smoke coming out of his head and a pole coming out of his head too . He was slimed from head to toe and when he walked slime dropped of him . He was saying " Kill kill " , so I threw a stone and the alien still walked . He was fat and not very pretty so he had a nose that was purple . The alien stared to fly in the sky and that was the end of the alien.

January 17 1858
This is Peggy i'm just writing to see how everyone is. How is doing with the job? Hows Nano and you?Have you moved in with John yet? After I left you in Castletaggart we went to Queenstown to the shipping office I was very worried in case I was too young but Mrs Molly stood up for me and told the man I was with her so I got my ticket. Then we found out the ship didn't set sail until tommorrow so we booked into a hotel called Seaview.It was better than nothing.Then the very kind lady at the hotel told us we would be best going to the shop in the town to get a chamber pot and a bucket.
The next morning I looked out the hotel window and there it was The Fortunata. We all got up and got ready we had breakfast and went down to the quayside where we had to wait in the long,long queue . The children started to get restless.Then we got on the ship we had to go down to the steerage it was very squashed and people were fighting for bunks. There was a massive table in the middle of the floor. Later I met a girl called Sarah.She had 2 brothers called James and John Connolly. Then a very bad thing happened it was a storm the ship got flooded and we weren't allowed up a lot of people were sea -sick at this time aswell so that didn't help matters.

He has spikyhair and it is very shiny the colour of his hair is bright bright green which I like rather well.His eyes are bright red with other flaming colours rolling around in his eye sockets.He hasn't just got two eyes he has five on the back of his head and the front.He is a sneaky old alien because he has three fingers and toes.He thinks he is the best alien in space but a lot of them have three too. He eats alot of unhealthy food but is really really skinny and I do not know how he does it.He breathes out flames but is a really friendly alien.

The Famine

The famine killed over 2 million people.
It was around in 1845.
There were riots over food.
People were starving to death.
People were homless.
People had no family.
People were moving to Ammerica.
1000000 people went but only atleast half made it.
The ones that died were rapped in blanketsand thrown over board.

 

The Monster

My monster would be described as tall ,fat and green.I would name him Gandoe .He would have one antenna, two mouths, seven noses, his arms would be made of metal and wood, he would have one foot and one arm , he would have sixteen at the front and none at the back. He could have two fingers, he would be like a news reporter, his toes would be deep blue, he would be one thousand feet tall, his eyes would be deep purple , his hair would be deep orang and gold and would go one way and the other, and his skin would be made of slime and when you touch it, it would peel. His mouth would be half brown and half grey. His noses woud be light pink.His face would be deep blue and his leg would be grey.His antenna would be deep green.

 

Autumn

Autumn is here and cold
Under the trees lie leaves
Trees are bare as can be
Under the trees are leaf fights
Mondays are cold in the mornings of school
Never warm and always damp and cold

It went quite fast anbd we arrived at five past ten. We met a woman calledMadeline and she said we were too early and we had to walk around the entire of the museum. When we got back the St. John the Baptist boys had been there for ten minutes and then Madeline and Miss Robinson showed us to our dorms. We had to put our stuff into the lockers and the wardrobe. Miss Robinson came to the dorms to tell us we had to go when we heard the fire bell. We had to go and line up quietly outside. We were out for a couple of minutes and went into the Common Room and we had outr lunch. As soon as we had finished we went to our dorms for twenty minutes and then we went to the groups we were put into yesterday. We did some work on Urban Victorian houses. Mr. MacCrystal said we would go out for half and hour to look at some of the houses. When we got back it was a quarter past three and we all had a game of Do You Like Your Neighbour? By the timne we had finished it was half four and we went for our dinner. We got ready for swimming after dinner. We went to the train station. Aaron W. fell down a hole.

When we got back it was Jill's birthday and we had a party. The party started at 9.30pm. At about 10.00pm we watched Casper Meets Wendy. As soon as the film was over we all had the chance to whisper to each other or got to sleep, Miss Robinson had to go intomy dorm about five times because we all talking too loudly. We were all worn out so we went to sleep. On the second day we all woke up at 7.00am and had to get washed and dressed and be ready for breakfast at 8.30am. We went into our groups and learnt about rural houses. We looked at some of the houses and it was about half an hour walking and me and Annie were at the back of the line. We went back and we had our lunch.When we got to the dinner room evrybodywas eating hier pudding almost.I was sitting at the table with people out of my class.Then at about 2.23pm we all were in a circle in the common room and played apple apple apple first I was ornage and then I was ugly.Then we ended the game.And Mr MacCrystal said,"My group over here."And my group were all half missing.

THE FAMINE

Fatality across the land 
No one was happy
Poor people evicted 
Hopeless people crying
Death despair and devastation
Could this nightmare ever end 
Years and years of starvation
They could'nt take it any more 
In coffin ships they went to explore 
Ireland was ruined 
Death ruled the land 
The Famine somehow ended
Im so glad of that 
But families go on to this day
And remember that dreadful time
