DIGITAL MATERIALS IN THE CLASSROOM
Last summer, the Letters of 1916 project held a workshop for secondary school teachers in An Foras Feasa, Maynooth University. Over the course of two days, eighteen workshop participants collaborated to create three distinct lesson plans for Transition Year students based on letters from the Letters of 1916 collection. To view the lesson plans, please follow the links here.
Join the Military Archives and the Letters of 1916 team to share your experiences of creating and using digital materials in the classroom.
