This resource is the first 'Report Writing' resource available for teachers to help their teaching align with the new Primary Language Curriculum. I hope that you will find it useful for a new type of Irish teaching. Please email me at michellesinnovativeideas@gmail.com with any questions.
This resource is aimed at children in 4th - 6th class. Please view the preview to decide if it is suitable for your class and their level of Irish. As this is a new type of writing for many children, pre-teaching of vocabulary and whole class teaching is recommended at first. Detailed suggestions for use are included in the pack.
If you have a 4th class group who find Irish difficult you may prefer to try the resource for 2nd - 4th class. Click here to view the Report Writing for Middle Classes.
