Welcome to Seomra Ranga, the Hub for Primary School Resources. For the overseas visitors “Seomra Ranga” means “classroom” in the Irish language.
Seomra Ranga has been successfully providing tried and tested resources for primary school classrooms since 2007. Since that time, the site has gradually built up a strong following amongst educators as a repository of quality teacher-created resources. The resources on the site, which support all areas of the curriculum, are arranged in accordance with the curricular provisions of the Irish primary school….

Weave Silk Art
Have you ever tried doing some Digital Art with your pupils?

Unjumble the Sentences 01
This PPTX resource is aimed at pupils in first to third classes or SEN pupils. Its purpose is to assist with the understanding of both sentence structure, comprehension and reading for meaning. These sentences are made up of six words. There are 25 different sentences in the presentation for pupils to unjumble.
Shoe Prints Art
This is a really simple and easy art lesson to do, yet it is one which pupils of any age will enjoy. It focuses on the pattern of the shoes that they are wearing in school and trying to recreate that pattern onto a shoe print. A class full of these shoe prints makes a great display travelling up the wall, around the door and even onto the ceiling!
Salad Spinner Art
If you are not using that salad spinner at the back of the kitchen press any more, bring it in to school to make a great piece of visual art. All you need to create this effective piece of art is the salad spinner, paper plates and paint, it’s that easy. This visual arts lesson could be done with any age group.
