EVEN BEFORE THE DISRUPTIONS WE FACED DUE TO THE PANDEMIC, IT WAS ALWAYS<br />
A CHALLENGE TO IMPLEMENT A ROBUST PROGRAMME THAT TEACHES ESSENTIAL<br />
ENGLISH SKILLS. WE ARE NOW ACUTELY AWARE THAT LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS<br />
CAN BE DISRUPTED AT A MOMENT’S NOTICE, AND OUR ENGLISH PROGRAMMES<br />
AND TEACHING APPROACHES HAVE TO BE FLEXIBLE ENOUGH TO ADAPT.<br />
OUR FOCUS HAS ALWAYS BEEN ON<br />
UNDERSTANDING REAL CLASSROOM CHALLENGES<br />
AND CREATING SOLUTIONS TO MEET THEM. THIS<br />
PAST YEAR, WE HAVE PLACED MORE FOCUS ON OUR<br />
ENGLISH PUPIL WORKBOOKS, PROVIDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR<br />
PRACTICE AND CONSOLIDATION. WE HAVE ALSO WORKED HARD BY<br />
INNOVATING AND EXPANDING OUR <strong>DIGITAL</strong><br />

Differentiated Cards<br />
Chameleons are lizards.<br />
Chameleons have clever skin that can change colour. Their skin can make<br />
patterns of many colours. They can change the colour of their skin to hide<br />
from enemies. They show dark colours when they are angry or trying to<br />
scare other animals. Male chameleons show colours to attract females.<br />
Desert chameleons change to black to help them stay warm. They also<br />
change to light colours to keep cool.<br />
Chameleons have large, bulging eyes that can rotate. This allows them to<br />
see in two directions at one time. They can see insects metres away. They<br />
also have very long tongues that they can use very quickly to catch insects.<br />

REVIEW ‘We have been using Sounds in Focus throughout our school for one year now. We chose it initially, because we sought a<br />
scheme that would combine the focus on phonemes and graphemes in the teaching of spellings. We also felt that this programme<br />
would bring a focus back to phonics in the senior classes. We found the brainstorming session on the introduction of each sound to<br />
be beneficial for the children, whilst the downloadable games and activities acted as effective reinforcement.’<br />

Features<br />
• The whole-school nature of the programme means that pupils<br />
are revising and building upon the same sounds each year.<br />
The programme ensures that pupils become very comfortable<br />
with segmenting words into their sounds.<br />
• Each year level has 36 units of work, designed to fit into the<br />
school year. Each unit is based on a specific phoneme(s), and<br />
with the teacher’s help and assistance, pupils explore the<br />
grapheme(s) that can be used to represent it.<br />
• Ideal for multi-grade classrooms and differentiation.<br />

to represent the ever changing curriculum and focus on developing the children<br />

Hands-on projects to engage pupils<br />
Design and Technology is a six-box series that offers opportunities to hone pupils' process and production skills<br />
while designing and creating interesting and fun projects. The flexibility of the four themes (food, cooking and<br />
nutrition, clothing and textiles, building and construction, and technological advancements) means that projects<br />
can be adapted where necessary. No matter which project your pupils are working on, they will be collaborating and<br />
communicating to find solutions to real-life problems.<br />

The books can be used for class lessons, homework or for quiz competitions within a school. They can be used for independent work,<br />
pair/group work and station teaching. The quizzes would be excellent for challenging early finishers, as the questions entail revision<br />
of concepts covered at each class level and would encourage pupils to research the answers to some of the general knowledge<br />
questions. The photocopiable quizzes can also be given as homework assignments as an effective way of revising different<br />
curriculum areas.<br />
NOTE FROM THE AUTHORS<br />
Practising teachers, Cróna Nic a tSeachlainn and Emily Uí Chnáimhsí<br />
'It was always evident in the classroom that the children responded well to assessment in the form of quizzes, upon completion of<br />
a particular topic or theme. They enjoyed the challenge of testing their knowledge and testing themselves against their peers. We<br />
have created themed quizzes, like questions on the Normans or the human body, as well as having quizzes that included questions<br />
relating to all areas of the curriculum. We believe that quizzes are excellent for learning new facts and keeping minds sharp!'<br />

REVIEW ‘I enjoyed how these activities required pupils to apply knowledge, logic<br />
and skills in literacy-based activities that also integrate other curriculum areas<br />
(science, maths and geography) and disciplines. The creativity and mixture of the<br />
types of challenges available make them more stimulating and interesting for pupils.<br />
The definitions of behavioural verbs provided at the start and the way each activity<br />
is organised into a certain skill were both very useful elements.’<br />
