Daniel’s JI having great fun exploring different ways to problem solve with the new maths curriculum 😊

Both 2nd classes have begun literacy power hour twice a week and are enjoying reading, writing and word work stations.

Your colleagues, parents and pupils may be interested in the following free eResource that is now available from Dublin City Libraries.

LOTE Online for Kids allows kids to enjoy the magic of books in LOTE (Languages Other Than English), both in the library and at home. Kids can also watch each LOTE title translated and narrated in English to help with reading and literacy development. To access it, all that is needed is a Dublin City Libraries library card number.

There are over 1200 book titles in over 40 languages as follows: English, Arabic, Bengali, Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mexican Spanish, Persian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Punjabi, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Spanish (Latin America), Tamil, Turkish, Urdu, and Vietnamese.

Also, please see below a number of links to blog content created in recent weeks and months by our colleagues in Dublin City Libraries.

Each blog looks at a particular theme or area of interest and outlines a variety of useful and relevant online resources, including detailed information on each one and information on where to find it and how to register/ login.
