This bundle contains a 14 page long term English plan and a 10 page long term Gaeilge plan for First or Second Class based on the 2015 New Primary Language Curriculum.
These plans are based on the NCCA draft long term planning frameworks and took me over 20 hours to complete!
The plans contain all of the sections suggested by the NCCA in their planning framework for the New Primary Language Curriculum including aims, learning outcomes for each strand, a section where you can mark which progression milestone the children are on at the beginning of the year and where you want them to be at the end of the year/ term, methodologies, differentiation, assessment, linkage and integration.
I have included 3 versions of the Gaeilge plan with this download so you can choose which one works best for your class:
Version 1 contains a table for terms 1,2, and 3 and I have left the content section blank so that you can fill in the stories/ poems etc. that you wish to cover. I have filled in all other sections such as methodologies, assessment, differentiation, and linkage/ integration.
Version 2 has the content section filled in and is based on the Abair Liom C Programme for First Class.
Version 3 has the content section filled in and is based on the Abair Liom D Programme for Second Class.
The English plan has a comprehensive table containing suggested themes/ topics, and content. The content gives suggested poems, rhymes, books, phonics, letter formation etc. that can be covered each month. This can be tailored to meet the needs of your individual class, be it First or Second Class or a mixed class with both. The poems, books, letter formation and themes are suitable for both first and second class, however I have included 2 versions of the plan with different grammar and phonics for first and second classes.
For even more clarity in both the English and Gaeilge plans, I have colour coded each strand so that you can see at a glance where it is referenced in the plan.
A huge amount of time and effort was put into these plans and I am confident you will be happy with your purchase. Positive reviews are very much appreciated to let other users know that this is a quality plan. If you take the time to review this product, as a thank you I will send you a sample first/ second class timetable, as well as a 6 page thematic teaching grid outlining possible themes for the year and how I have integrated different subjects into these themes.
Thank you!
