I have provided a link to a good website below for children who struggle with reading or just need a little boost with their reading.

I have copied the blurb from the website below. Please note that the links are to YouTube for the book readings.

“KidsRead2Kids helps kids build self-esteem and reading confidence with every chapter. We hope to inspire and empower young readers.

KidsRead2Kids was founded by Dyslexic and ADHD siblings to bring the joy and confidence back to the struggling reader.

We provide free video-audio books read by kids for kids – filmed chapter by chapter for easy listening. A great resource for both homeschooling parents and primary teachers.”

This week’s topic for discussion is the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. Enjoy!

Good morning

More teachers have been creating a Microsoft Team for their class.

We now have teams for the whole school:

P1 – Miss Mair, P1/2 – Mrs Kilday, P2 – Mrs Bryson, P3 – Mrs Norman, P3/4 Miss McGrane, P4 – Mrs Burt, P4/5 – Mrs Walkinshaw and Mrs Scarisbrick, P5 – Miss Morrison, P6 – Miss Black, P6/7 – Miss Kirkcaldy and P7 – Miss Millar.

To access Microsoft Teams:

• Download the Teams app on your phone/tablet/computer (the Teams logo is below)
• Login with your Glow account details – the username for Teams is your Glow login username + @glow.sch.uk                                              e.g.  Ian Brown’s username would be:  gw17brownian@glow.sch.uk
• The password is the same one that you use for logging into Glow
• Your teacher will have added you to the ‘Team’
• You can start chatting to the others in your class or access some learning (if your teacher has put some on)

Here is the link to the new blog for the ECC:

It’s brand new so you will have to give us a few weeks to get it fully up and running!

Both the school and the ECC Twitter feeds are now linked to both blogs.

As you know everyday in Mauchline Primary and ECC we celebrate ‘Pupil of the day’ and ‘Staff Member’ of the day. This celebrates the special and unique qualities that we all have and the special role we all play within our school community by giving the ‘Pupil of the day’ and ‘Staff Member’ ​person compliments.

This week we would like to relaunch this with ‘Community Members’ of the week. Today we will be celebrating our NHS workers. If you have a special person you would like to give a compliment to, or would just like to give a general compliment to NHS staff please post a message here on the Blog (click on ‘Leave a Comment’) or on today’s Head Teacher’s twitter message.
