Curriculum check and original sources
An adult reads the English text and questions aloud. The child points, acts, draws/colours or answers orally. The child is not required to read these prompts or write English answers. Accept natural appropriate answers; never infer a test score from a model response.
Terms in these original EWS lessons and review papers are a recommended practice sequence, not an official allocation. Use the child’s school plan.
Grade 2 remains on the earlier curriculum in 2026; official reform implementation starts in 2027. Do not label these as the 2027 Grade 2 modules.
The 2018 NIE ABOE teacher handbook gives 16 themes and supplementary classroom language, mathematics vocabulary and nine storybooks. Its introduction directs assessment of listening and speaking, not formal English reading/writing tests.
Do not use the older 16-theme Grade 1 outline as a replacement for the 2026 Grade 1 materials.
