P5/6 – Digital Literacy

Leave a comment

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.

P5/6 – Topic (The Victorians)

IDL Topic: The Victorians

This week, Primary 5/6 looked at significant events from the Victorian era. Each pupil worked within a small group to research and take notes on one significant event which they then used to create their own fact page in their jotter. After this, one pupil from each group presented their findings, teaching the rest of the class about a range of significant events. Finally, the pupils worked as a class to create a timeline of events from the Victorian era based on what they had learned.
