UNIT 6 IRELAND - Lesson 2

Session 2 --> Geography

           In the last session our homework was to do the information cards about the provinces. (Munster, Leinster, Ulster and Connaught). Today 31st of March we will do the next activities.

Activity 1

You will watch the video, you will learn how you do a compass, Could you try at home?

After you must go to this page http://www.eduplace.com/kids/socsci/books/applications/imaps/maps/g1_u3/index.html and make the activities. You will learn the cardinal points (North, South, East, and West).

            After this activity, I will explain to you the usefulness of the compass. First I draws a cross and later I write the four points of the compass on the blackboard or PDI.

Activity 2

Now you will solve a word search about the principal names of the cities of Ireland. To know the names of the cities you can watch the map of the session one, where there are all the principal names.

Also you could do the wordsearch, if you click Main cities of Ireland.
This activity will be useful to start the next activity.

Activity 3

In this activity I want you to know more about the main cities of Ireland. Each group will have the name of one city and you will do research about the city you have got.

I will give a sheet to each group showing the main points of the research:

The final aim of the session is to include the final index-card of each group in the guide.
