Module Overview

Travel through time and across the sea to a land of lush landscapes, ancient legends, and magical encounters. This education module invites students to journey alongside four adventurous 5th graders who wake up one morning to find themselves, not only back in time but also, far from home—in Ireland. To return to their own time, they must embark on an epic quest filled with discovery, bravery, and wonder.


With the help of a loyal Irish Wolfhound and mischievous yet helpful Irish faeries, the friends navigate Ireland’s rich geography, uncover its fascinating flora and fauna, and delve into its geology. Along the way, they learn captivating myths and legends that reveal the spirit of the Emerald Isle—and their own inner strength.


Designed for curious young minds, this module combines the excitement of an adventure story with engaging, hands-on learning with supplemental materials for both students and teachers to enrich the journey.


Together, we’ll bring science to life, fostering a deeper understanding of Ireland’s natural world and cultural heritage. 

Our modules celebrate and preserve Ireland’s rich culture and heritage, preserving them for future generations.

The world is rich in diversity of culture.  In the United States, there is a meeting of many cultures and the ones people came from can be forgotten over generations.  


We strive to preserve Celtic heritage for Americans of Celtic descent so they may be connected to the threads of their past, present, and future.
