On the Farm word search – 4th Class

How to use this at home

Your child practises the exact spelling of 9 Irish words about on the farm. Because the letters have to match exactly, they quickly learn that a fada matters: á is a different letter from a, just as it is in their school copybook.

1. Make it a race: you look for one word while your child looks for another. The answer key on page 2 settles any arguments.
2. Once the grid is done, cover the English in the word list and see how many meanings your child remembers. Then swap: you say the English, they find the Irish word in the list.
3. On a drive in the countryside, spot tractors, fields and animals and name them.
