Lesson Plan
Support material for the 'action learning' project on writing a new proclamation for 2016. The methodologies will assist in facilitating classes to discuss and engage with the main ideas of the Proclamation, to decide if they are relevant in today’s society with the aim of identifying, discussing and creating their vision for Ireland in 2016. The focus is to gather ideas, share prior knowledge, formulate a plan, develop teamwork strategies, listening, speaking and writing skills.
How it maps to the curriculum
- 5-6
- SESE History
Strand: Eras of Change & Conflict
Strand unit: Modern Ireland
Content objective: This resource should enable a child to:
- become familiar with aspects of these periods
- examine and become familiar with evidence which informs us about the lives of people in the periods studied, their thoughts and concerns, especially evidence which may be found locally
Suggestions for use: The suggestions in this document are highly practical and include prompts to assist teachers to differentiate resources and methodologies, depending on class groups, which may help to frame the new Proclamation. Some terrific suggestions!
