Open Night Toolkit Support Sessions

Open Night Toolkit Support Sessions

PPLI | Languages Connect is organising English and Irish medium online Communities of Practice (CoPs) for teachers, to showcase how best to make use of their Open Night Toolkit. The toolkit is available online below or in hard copy through your school*

The toolkit is designed to help encourage incoming students to “Say Yes to Languages” when choosing their subjects for Junior Cycle. Included within is a selection of ideas and resources that can support activities on the night, as well as in-class, including:

  • Tips for hosting open days/nights in your school for incoming first years and their parents.

  • Ideas for engaging the students and their parents with games and online activities.

  • Language passport designed to give students confidence in their capacity to learn foreign languages.

  • Language specific activities for the four main curricular languages taken in Junior Cycle.
