Finbar the Cat by Thia Houlihan

It was November,
no wait it was December,
Oh yes it was very cold,
the children were very bold so I said look it’s Santa!
Where? says one I ONLY see Fanta!
As I run away I notice animals hibernating,
And Leaves slowly disintegrating,
And I thought “poor old robin”,
So I gave him my lucky bobbin,
Then ran home just in time for pudding,
But me ma still gave me a whooping,
So I went to see Santa,
Who sent me to visit Setanta,
Who lived in ATHLANTA!
Where I bought a cat,
Which was VERY fat,
But he was a star,
So I named him FINBAR!!!

​ George The Snowman
I came out of my room, my mum was sweeping with her broom.
I went to check on my elf who was sitting on the shelf.
I got on my coat and hat to go feed my fat cat.
I looked outside the window, and what did I see … SNOW.
I fed my cat and out I went, I got absolutely drenched.
I made a little snowman and I called him George.
I built him a house, a nice size for a mouse.
I went inside his little home it was shaped like a dome.
I was called to go inside, my little snow man cried.
I said goodbye to my snow friend, I went inside and hit the bed.
I had so much fun that night, I hope George is still in sight.

I see the winds blowing, I think it must be snowing.
I make my Christmas cake, hopefully my hands won't shake.

As Mary sits in the manger she thinks of nature’s danger.
Oh, I think I see a light, it must be Santa on his flight.
Up in the North Pole the vigorous winds blow.

In Santa’s cabin all the elves are dabbin, while Santa’s rappin.
I went home lookin for some puddin and I got a whoopin with no puddin.

So I flew up to Santa, he sent me to Setanta who lived in Ethlanta,
Even there I could hear Cian yelling at Colm to GET ME
AAAA FFFFAAAAANNNNNTTTTAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lego WEDO

Lego WeDo, what is it? Well it is a technical Lego device you can programme to do what you code it to do.
It is an educational coding app you can get on your tablet or laptop. It is good for Lego lovers looking for something new or maybe not- you might just want to try something different, either way it is great fun.
You programme it in the app. You have a tray to put the Lego in. In the app you must connect the core piece which must have 2 AA batteries. Then you connect the tablet or laptop to the core which you need Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
Now you pick a robot to build and click on it and press START BIULD then you start construction. You get the blocks from the tray. You can programme it to change colour, move around or spin and make sounds. It is pretty simple anyways.
It is really fun, easy and educational. It was my first time with technical Lego. I thought it would be hard but is was and very smooth.

LEGO WE DO 2.0
Lego WeDo is an educational and interactive robotic system, and programme. It does what you please How?
Download the app on an i pad and soft wear on a laptop. You start with the glowing snail. Then a step by step programme comes up on the screen.
What does it do though? Move, change colour, and sound. WOW, what age do I have to be to do it? 7+ Which set should I get first? The core set is the best for starters, and make sure you have 2 AA batteries. Thanks a lot.
WARNING LEGO wedo is very expensive but definitely worth it.

It is an educational, interactive robotic system. You will need to get the free app on an ipad or laptop. The app will show the instructions of how to build what you have picked.
 
Then you put in the batteries. You will need Wifi and you will need to connect it to Bluetooth. Then you start programming.
 
You can programme it to make noise, record sound, change colour and move. Then you can break it and make something else.
 
We just started using it in school. It is not too hard and not too easy. I recommend using Lego We Do if you like programming

You can get the Lego Wedo app on an iPad and laptop and your phone. It is great for imagination. You can download the app on play store or on the internet. The app is free to download. The Lego Wedo set is suitable for two pupils over seven years old.
To play on Lego Wedo you have to have Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and batteries. The rest comes in the set that you can get in any education shop. When you go into the app you can connect to Bluetooth.
Lego Wedo can do many things. You can build many things like robot, fans, cars and many more. In your core set is instructions where you can unlock more items you can make. On your device you can control your creation by pressings buttons.
In my experience with Lego Wedo I found it great fun to make all the creations. It really drives your creativity  to the max. I really recommend it.

Lego is very educational to young children, it’s also interactive. It’s based on a robotic system with coding and you must use an iPad or Laptop to connect it.
 
You need Bluetooth to connect to your device so your character or figure can move. You can also connect batteries to make it move, you would also need Wi-Fi to connect it.
 
Lego has lots of different shapes and sizes and some can move and also light up.
 
Personally I think Lego We Do is very good and Lego is very fun and educational.
