\"\"<\/a>We are delighted to announce that St\u00f2rlann N\u00e0iseanta na G\u00e0idhlig<\/a>, with support from Education Scotland, are distributing a colourful Gaelic resource pack on the Commonwealth Games.<\/p>\n

The pack includes a poster with the Commonwealth flags; a poster showing the 17 sports which will be at the Glasgow Games; stickers suitable for sport, such as A\u2019 Chiad \u00c0ite, Tha mise math ann an sgioba, Bhuannaich sinne! (First Place; I\u2019m a good team player; We won!) and two sets of cards about the sports at the Games and about the Commonwealth countries.<\/p>\n

The cards convey information in a way which will encourage the Gaelic reading, comprehension and speaking of the pupils, and there are assignments for them to do too. There are questions on lifeskills maths, and plenty opportunities for research. The findings can be presented in a variety of ways such as reports, web pages and podcasts.<\/p>\n

There is differentiation in the maths work, and it is expected that pupils will work to their own level in the other activities. There will be something for everyone, whether working on their own or in a group, and with the help of the cards, pupils will be able to speak in some depth about the sports and about the countries which are part of the Commonwealth.<\/p>\n

Teacher\u2019s Notes with suggestions for using the resources, sample questions, country data, and links which will help with the research, are available on the St\u00f2rlann website. <\/a>We are also organising a competition with cool prizes in conjunction with B\u00f2rd na G\u00e0idhlig, and interactive on-line games.<\/p>\n

We hope there will be plenty winners with this Commonwealth Games pack!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
