FUN SITES - Lots of useful links below to great sites for learning
There are lots of websites offering free resources to assist parents and pupils in revising work. There are lots of interactive literacy and numeracy games, power point presentations, worksheets, tests and videos on every topic in the curriculum. If you do not have access to a printer, you can download into a folder on your desktop and children can read and watch as well as writing answers onto paper. Parents of younger children may want to focus on phonics, spelling, sight words, rhymes, shapes, addition, subtraction and science experiments too. Older children may revise tables, spellings and maths topics already taught (not new ones!), Irish vocabulary etc.
