Description
Introducing Fuaimeanna na Gaeilge!
Having taught naíonáin for years, I have put this book together bearing in mind what I would have liked.
The book begins with the letter c, as many schools use that for letter formation. Below is the order in which the letters appear but you can pick and choose which letter to focus on as you like.
-coadg
-rmniu
-dfthb
-pves
-áéíóú
There is a progression in the pages beginning with a colouring page initially of objects that have that initial sound, it then moves on to a variety of objects where they colour only the ones beginning with the sound you are working on. After this they find the written letter and colour it, then move on to tracing the letter. The final two page have them writing the letter themselves independently and reading words that begin with that letter. The book serves as a great support to teachers teaching Fónaic na Gaeilge to naíonáin bheaga for the first time, or as a revision book for naíonáin mhóra/ those struggling with their sounds.
The books will be posted out at the beginning of the next school year 2024-25 in time for the new school year.
I hope it helps support your teaching of Fónaic na Gaeilge in the classroom.
