3. Gaeilge:
As a revision exercise try ask your child a few questions based on “Sa Chistin” and “Sa Seomra Codlata”.
Ask them where a certain object is. Get them to give you a full answer, eg.
Parent: Cá bhfuil an taephota? (Where is the teapot?)
Child: Tá an taephota sa chistin (The teapot is in the kitchen)
Pick objects from Tuesday & Wednesday’s list at random and ask your child to tell you where it is, through Irish. If you are not comfortable using Irish then by all means ask them “Where is the teapot?” but your child should answer you through Irish.
