Over the past eight weeks, Fourth Class have worked in their TSI groups independently applying comprehension strategies, developing skills such as working in groups, working in different roles and giving effective feedback. All children were trained in the roles of Leader, Questioner and Strategist and got to read a wide variety of reading material at their own pace. TSI was an extremely successful initiative and was thoroughly enjoyed by the pupils....................... 'TSI is fun and it helps build team working skills' Anna Lynch 'The teamwork is fun but the books are even better' Aoife Holland 'You must listen to the leader, the questioner asks the questions and the strategist predicts the future events' Colin Griffin 'It was enjoyable, the best part of English!' Lucy McCarthy 'It was fun and you could see how your reading improved with your group' Oscar Wrixon-Todd 'It was good because you can test your reading' Darragh Sweeney 'TSI is great even if you do it with a friend' Cathal Ahern 'It was fun, enjoyable and the best thing ever!' Gemma Collins 'TSI is fun and great, it helps us read so good that you will never believe!!' Freya Loughnane 'TSI is great fun because you can read with your friends' Dylan Keogh We had great fun recently during a visit to see the Author Alan Nolan at our local Library!21/12/2017
