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.

Pelmanism 05
Pelmanism is the name of the memory game which you play by turning up pairs of cards from a pack and trying to pick out matching pairs. It is named after the Pelman Institute which was set up for the study of memory in London in the 1930s.
This oral language memory game focuses on homophones (words that sound the same but are spelled differently). There are three sets of sixteen cards (eight pairs) in this pack, 48 cards in all. The game can be played initially using one set and as the pupils become proficient, another set can be added.

Book Review: My Ireland Activity Book
I loved this book. It has really fun activities and games in it. But my favourite pages are 12 + 13 (Where’s Larry) and my least favourite page is page 19/20 (postcard). I haven’t done much in it though and I don’t like the tricky things in it either. I would give this fun activity book 8/10. read more…
Comórtas “Saol Faoi Shráid”
I previously wrote a blog post about “Saol Faoi Shráid” an animated children’s TV series created by Meangadh Fibín for TG4. The series is aimed at 3-6 year olds and follows the adventures of brother and sister duo, Glibín & Ribín, aliens from the centre of the earth.
A book based on the same series, “Saol Faoi Shráid – An Giotar Nua”, was launched at the Baboró International Arts Festival for Children in Galway last October. The book can be bought in a small and larger format read more…
Book Review: Rugby Flyer
This is the fourth book in the series. If you’ve read ‘Rugby Spirit’, ‘Rugby Warrior’ or ‘Rugby Rebel’ then I’m sure you will love this book as well. But rest assured you do not need to read the others to enjoy Rugby Flyer. Rugby Flyer is a book all about rugby.
In this series, this was the first one I read. If you don’t know the basics of rugby but still want to read it (like me) then I think you would still love it as I did. It’s just that in the match you might not understand what’s happening at all. This book isn’t about the matches but more about rivalry, characters, ghosts and Irish history. read more…
