Donegal Libraries are proudly celebrating World Down Syndrome Day on March 21st with a special ‘See Me’ window display in Twin Towns Library featuring Finn Valley native, Aoibhe McConnell. Aoibhe can be seen in the photos using the See & Learn and Numicon resources that are available for free throughout all Donegal libraries. The window display will remain in place until mid-April so be sure to take a look!
The See & Learn kits are designed to meet the specific learning needs of children with Down Syndrome. They can help children develop clearer speech production, learn vocabulary, and develop language skills by learning to read from an early age.
Numicon is an approach to teaching maths that helps children see connections between numbers. It is a multi-sensory way of learning, which allows the child to learn by seeing and feeling.
Both See & Learn and Numicon resources are now available to borrow from the following libraries:
Twin Towns Library
Buncrana Library
Bundoran Library
Leabharlann Phobail Ghaoth Dobhair
Central Library Letterkenny
If you don’t live near one of these libraries, don’t worry we can deliver one to your nearest library for you.
All you need to do is have a library card, which is free! Joining is simple, either call into your local library with some ID or join online by going to https://www.donegallibrary.ie/

Tá Leabharlanna Dhún na nGall ag ceiliúradh Lá Domhanda Siondróm Down ar 21 Márta le taispeáint fuinneoige speisialta ‘See Me’ i Leabharlann na mBailte Nasctha ar a raibh Aoibhe McConnell ó dhúchas Ghleann na Finne. Tá Aoibhe le feiceáil sna grianghraif ag baint úsáide as na hacmhainní See & Learn agus Numicon atá ar fáil saor in aisce ar fud leabharlanna Dhún na nGall. Fanfaidh taispeáint na fuinneoige i bhfeidhm go dtí lár mhí Aibreáin mar sin déan cinnte go bhfeiceann tú é
Tá na citeanna See & Learn deartha chun freastal ar shainriachtanais fhoghlama páistí a bhfuil Siondróm Down orthu. Is féidir leo cuidiú le páistí léiriú cainte níos soiléire a fhorbairt, stór focal a fhoghlaim, agus scileanna teanga a fhorbairt trí fhoghlaim a dhéanamh ar an léitheoireacht ó aois an-óg.
Is modh é Numicon do mhúineadh na matamaitice a chuidíonn le páistí naisc idir uimhreacha a fheiceáil. Is bealach foghlama ilchéadfach é, a ligeann don leanbh foghlaim trí fheiceáil agus trí mhothú.
Tá acmhainní See & Learn agus Numicon ar fáil anois le hiasachtú ó na leabharlanna seo a leanas:
Leabharlann na mBailte Nasctha
Leabharlann Bhun Cranncha
Leabharlann Bhun Dobhráin
Leabharlann Phobail Ghaoth Dobhair
Lárleabharlann Leitir Ceanainn
Mura bhfuil tú i do chónaí in aice le ceann de na leabharlanna seo, ná bíodh imní ort. Is féidir linn ceann a sheachadadh chuig an leabharlann is cóngarach duit.
Níl de dhith ort ach cárta leabharlainne a bheith agat, agus tá sé sin saor in aisce! Tá sé simplí ballraíocht a ghlacadh amach, buail isteach i do leabharlann áitiúil le haitheantas éigin nó fáigh ballraíocht ar líne chuig https://www.donegallibrary.ie/
