Information for Teachers and Parents - Misean Mhíleo

Misean Mhíleo

This fun game is about materials and their properties. The player chooses the material that will get the character, Míleo, through each puzzle. The game can be played as it is or there is an option to use 'puzal amháin' where the player will only be asked the questions. Further research on materials and their properties can be done through 'An Binse Ábhar'.

If you would like to get involved with what your child is learning, the following questions and activities may help stimulate discussion:

Put a few different objects of different material in a bag and see if your child can guess what they are by feeling them. Explore and talk about the properties of safe household objects. Discuss the properties of different things in the environment - eg. parts of different modes of transport, safety clothing.
