Seomra Ranga is delighted to team up with Edware Interactive Learning, an Irish company (www.edware.ie), to bring you a competition for the month of November. Edware is presenting us with prizes of their hugely successful geography software programmes Know Your Ireland (two copies) and Know Your Europe. Edware also produces Know Your World and Know Your USA
programmes.

| Know Your Ireland |
Know Your Europe |
To be in with a chance of winning one of these three great prizes, all you have to do is upload a resource to Seomra Ranga during November. Simply attach the resource, in any format (.doc, .pdf, .ppt, .xls, .pub, .jpg etc) to an e-mail and send it to info@seomraranga.com You can enter as many times as you wish (one e-mail = one competition ticket). |
Seomra Ranga has created some new resources for the website using a very simple free online piece of software called "Wordle" (http://www.wordle.net) Wordle allows you to create "word clouds" which displays text in an interesting and unusual fashion. 
You can create your own Wordle resources on the Wordle website or you can view the ones created by Seomra Ranga HERE>>>> |

Seomra Ranga is pleased to announce that it has received permission from Irish Water Safety (IWS) to include their powerpoint resources on this site for teachers to download freely. These resources should be of great benefit to primary school teachers to use in the classroom. These resources were created by IWS and remain the copyright © of IWS.
There are eight powerpoints in all, four in English and four as Gaeilge. They deal with water safety under four themes: boating, swimming, the home, on the farm. They are all suitable for use in the SPHE curriculum under the Myself Strand, Safety and Protection Strand Unit.
These resources can be downloaded HERE>>>>> |
Seomra Ranga has produced a collection of A4 sized phonics posters in full colour. There are more than thirty posters in the collection at the moment. These will be added to on an ongoing basis.

To complement the phonics posters, there are also loop cards to accompany each poster.

Swine Flu is very much in the news at the moment and will probably be more so with the return to school in September. Seomra Ranga has produced some classroom posters in both English and Gaeilge to encourage pupils to engage in good hygiene practices.

These posters can be viewed in the SPHE posters section HERE>>>>>
The HSE also has a poster about Swine Flu especially for children and this can be downloaded HERE>>>>> Check out also www.swineflu.ie

Themed lined pages are useful for pupils to display their written work in an attractive way. Seomra Ranga has produced some themed lined pages for seasonal times of the year. These have now been gathered together into one web page to make it easier to see what is available to download.

It is hoped to add to the collection of themed lined pages over the coming weeks. In the meanwhile you can view the available lined pages HERE >>>>>

All of the Power Point resources on the web site have now been gathered into one easy-to-use collection.
