Dear Parent,
I hope you find these links useful.
This post is intended to make finding
these three posts as easy as possible;
1. Helping your child with Reading
2. Helping your child with Maths
and ‘the honours course’;
3. How you can help your child’s ‘higher order learning’ using Bloom’s Taxonomy

PS. 1. Greystones Library is running
a ‘Reading Passport’ promotion
to encourage reading over the summer.
Why not call in and sign your child up!
2. Finally ‘Smart Futures’ are running
a technology project competition
which may appeal to your child’s interests;
Smart Futures.ie – Competition
‘Smart Futures’ is an enterprise
which aims to introduce students
to the potential of a future
working in the areas of
science, technology,
engineering or maths.
This project involves choosing an area to study.
It could be about a career in this area or about
someone, past or present who work in this area.
To present this project
you could design a website or webpage,
‘an animation or a PowerPoint presentation, a music video or a game.’
This project is aimed at students at primary or second level.
It may appeal in particular to any student involved in working with Coder Dojo.
Thank you for all your help.I really appreciate your effort.
Thanks Annie. I know you’ll make good use of the ones that are of interest to you. Have a great summer. It’ll be lovely not to be too tied to the school routine. Thanks for all your co-operation, support and kindness.
