Info for Parents on developing speech sounds

Please find below an EXCELLENT powerpoint presentation designed to help parents with developing their child’s speech sounds.

We know that this is a really important development area for children and can be tricky to know what to do if your child is having speech sound difficulties.

You will need to download the powerpoint to  be able to hear the clips. Viewing the  powerpoint is not enough and will not let you  access the ‘voice over ‘ sections. All children  from P3-7 can access Microsoft Office for free by downloading it through GLOW.

We can do this Mauchline PS & ECC!

Books! Books! Books! – update

Thank you so much to the very kind parents/carers who have handed in some books for us to add to our library.

Please remember to have a look for any ‘Mauchline PS’ library or reading books when you are clearing our for Santa’s visit.

Just give them to your child to return or hand them into the office.

 

 

Books! Books! Books!

Our library is still a little emptier than it was after providing reading books for everyone during school closure earlier in the year.  So we are asking everyone to have another clear out at home.

Please have a look for any misplaced school library or reading books and return them to school. We can quarantine them and then get them straight back on the shelves.

Also, if you have any ‘used/unwanted’ children’s books that are in good condition, please feel free to donate them to the school. We can check if they are one of our Accelerated Reader books and add them to our colour-coded library.
