Suggested tips:
  ●   Find great resources on the school website that can support learning from home. https://www.scoilnanonagle.com/learning-
      from-home.html ( If you are having trouble viewing the website on your smart phone- try using Google Chrome and
      clicking on the three little dots on the top right corner of the webpage and ticking the box for desktop site.)
  ●   At the start of the week check to see if you can access the websites/books online for completion, print out any worksheets
      included. Print this list of work if possible and put it where you can see it each day. Mark off the work as you complete it.
  ●   Try and create a daily routine with the same fixed times for breakfast, school work, lunch, dinner and relax time to help relieve
      anxiety and create more normalcy with home schooling.
