Nibbler’s Adventures

Nibbler’s Aistear Adventures is a comprehensive resource I created for the delivery of the Aistear programme for junior and senior infants in Irish primary schools.

Aistear emphasises wholistic and integrated learning, and like Aistear, the Curriculum is founded on the principle of the integration of learning.

                “Children learn many different things at the same time. What they learn is connected to where, how and with whom they learn.” (NCCA, 2009, p.10).

My aim with Nibbler’s Aistear Adventures resource is to seamlessly and simultaneously integrate all elements of the infant programme in a wholistic way through play, right across the curriculum from the New Primary Language Curriculum, STEM, across all subject areas and with an opportunity to introduce early coding.

          “For the young child, the distinctions between subjects are not relevant: what is more important is that he or she experiences a coherent learning process that accommodates a variety of elements.” (Primary school Curriculum p.16)

Language for Living

I am a firm believer in developing oral language and vocabulary skills in children. I developed ‘Language for Living’ (also referred to as Tip of the Tongue), which contains a wealth of inspiring resources for the development of oral language and vocabulary development.

• Offers planned, intentional teaching of vocabulary…words of the day/ overused words and expressions etc.
• A progressive, considered method to narrow the word gap
• Hands on, ready to use.
• Adaptable to the learning needs of different children.
• learning through play, games and activities.
