There is an abundance of resources that I have looked at from module one alone. One of my favourite resources was the list of 22 proverbs that are believed to be true, I could say one of these on a daily basis. This is linked to the Nose Up to the Sky activity. This is also useful for integration of literacy and Gaeilge (Seanfhocal).
Particularly in Ireland, we can become obsessed with the weather at times. To give children opportunities to build and create their own weather instruments is a great lesson. The integration with maths is very obvious from this lesson. Children are becoming more aware of the term climate in recent times. We regularly hear the term ‘Climate Change’ in the news and in our day to day lives. As of this, ensuring the children have the correct terminology is very important. The activity where the children have to decide which phrase is linked to climate or weather is very important in my opinion, especially for children learning English for the first time.
