Special edition will run every Tuesday and Thursday for children from junior infants to 6th class offering teacher created content from educational publishing house, Twinkl
The Irish Sun, Ireland’s bestselling daily tabloid newspaper, has created an educational supplement entitled ‘The Irish Fun’ to provide a range of activities for primary school children during lockdown.
The series is designed to promote positivity and add structure to young children’s lives during these restricted times, through a range of fun activities. Each edition contains numerous exercises and illustrations for primary school children from the educational publisher Twinkl. The Twinkl educational tool provides teacher created resources that can be used at each step of a child’s learning journey, from lesson planning and assessments right through to online educational games, augmented reality and so much more.
Kieran McDaid, Editor of The Irish Sun, says: "This is proving to be a challenging time for parents and children of all ages. In order to minimise the impact of school closures on both parents and children, The Irish Sun wanted to bring some fun by creating a supplement that offers interactive online and print resources on a variety of topics. Our fifth edition of the supplement hits shelves this week and offers Twinkl based exercises for primary school children from junior infants right through to 6th class.”
The Irish Sun is Ireland's bestselling daily tabloid newspaper, with the latest local and global news, fashion, entertainment and sport.
