Digital Literacy
During digital literacy this week, Primary 5/6 have learned how to delete unwanted e-mails (clearing their outlook inbox), forward an e-mail to another person so that they can share information, carry out an online search for an image then save it to a specific location on their laptop.
They also had some more practice at accessing MS Teams, where they were able to locate links which took them to some revision tasks for numeracy.
Digital Literacy: Glow
Last week the Primary 5/6 pupils updated their ‘All About Me’ pages in their e-portfolios. They were able to edit the colour, font and size of the text on their All About Me page. They then composed an e-mail by searching for Mrs Wilson in the address book, selecting her as their recipient, then composing and sending a short email. Finally, all pupils were able to access Microsoft Teams through their Glow account and access their homework tasks. Some pupils found this helpful so that they could do this at home.
Throughout the whole lesson, pupils were encouraged to think about and discuss what would be appropriate and not so appropriate to use Glow e-portfolios, Outlook and MS Teams for considering that these are educational platforms and they were very sensible with their suggestions.
