2nd Class: Agri-Aware Worksheets from Task 1-5

In second class our teacher, Rona Coghlan, made up a booklet for each of us. The booklet contains lots of fantastic worksheets downloaded from the Agri-Aware program. Today 10 of us volunteered to have our worksheets from our booklets photographed and published as part of our Agri Aware project application.

We learned about the famine in Ireland. We learned that people were able to eat because the potatoes could grow lots of food in a small space. It was a cheap crop to grow. Then blight came to Ireland and all the potatoes died. The people had nothing to eat so they became very hungry. This was part of the reason why the famine happened in Ireland.
