Mauchline PS – Parental Reporting (Parent Survey)

The UK’s first ever online festival to help the nation with numbers is available right now on www.numeracyday.com

The Festival is being kicked off by National Numeracy Ambassador Rachel Riley, with later appearances from the likes of Martin Lewis, Bobby Seagull, Lauren Child reading from her Charlie and Lola and Ruby Redfort maths-focussed books, Carol Vorderman answering questions about unlocking maths confidence, Maths for Mums and Dads author Rob Eastaway sharing tips on how to teach maths at home, the Bank of England’s Andy Haldane helping with household finance and more. Even Amazon’s Alexa will be joining in by answering questions about numeracy.

The National Numeracy Day Virtual Festival covers three areas people want support with during this challenging time: helping children; personal development; and getting to grips with household finance. It aims to help everyone feel a bit better about their number skills.

Why not see for yourself!

Since we are missing out on our weekly assemblies, I have attached a link to a vimeo clip created by Picture News. This week’s discussion is about space and who it belongs to.

Monday 11th May

Good morning to all of the children, parents and carers of Mauchline PS & ECC. We hope you are all staying safe and managing to have some time to relax as well as continuing to learn wherever and however you can.

Here is a poster to remind you of the best way to keep your hands germ-free.

Remember to check the blog page for your child’s class – they contain fabulous ideas and activities to keep the children learning at home.

All classes now have a ‘Teams’ page that allow the children to post comments and completed work within a safe and secure environment. See the previous blog posts about Glow and Teams to get you logged in.

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.
