Shapes Educational Games/Resources developed, tried and tested by a TEACHER to introduce a fun-learning aspect to numeracy and literacy. I completed a B.A. in maths and economics at U.C.C. and later attended St. Patrick’s College, Drumcondra. I presently work as learning support/resource in Scoil Gharbháin, Dungarvan, Co. Waterford. When I qualified in the 80s, jobs were scarce so I emigrated to London. I spent 13 years in a middle school (primary and first two years of secondary) and I taught maths and design technology. When I returned to Ireland in 2001 I attended W.I.T. to study architecture where I was introduced to C.A.D. (computer aided design). When I took up teaching again I used C.A.D. to produce a variety of resources to help me as an educator and to make learning a fun activity. I have successfully used these over the last five years and it was suggested that I make these resources available for other teachers, both in the area of learning support/resource and for general classroom use.

Shapes Educational Dhein mé céim i mata agus eacnamaíocht i U.C.C. agus ansin chuaigh mé go Coláiste Phádraig. Chaith mé 13 bliain ag múineadh i Londain – “Middle school” a bhí ann agus bhí bliain a 1 + 2 ón meánscoil agam freisin. Mata + “design technology” a bhí á mhúineadh agam. Nuair a tháinig mé ar ais i 2001 chuaigh mé go W.I.T. chun staidéar a dhéanamh ar ailtireacht agus dfhoghlaimigh mé C.A.D. (computer aided design). Nuair a thosaigh mé ar ais ag múineadh (i scoil Gharbháin) bhain mé úsáid as C.A.D. chun cluichí a dhéanamh sa mhata, sa Bhéarla agus sa teichneolaíocht. Nuair a dheineas iad bhí mé ag smaoineamh ar mhúinteoireacht feabhais mar bhí siad á n-úsáid agam féin agus ag éirí go h-iontach leo. Deirtear liom go mbeidís an-oiriúnach don rang chomh maith. Míle buíochas le COGG as an gcabhair a thug siad dom. David Hyland, Shapes Educational Feic Shapes English ANSEO Deartha ag ITS-KD.COM
