Hi Primary 5,
Well done to all of you who have managed to access the work and have sent it to me today. I know some of your parents are working as well as helping you with school work at home. Please tell them not to worry about uploading the work, this can be done at anytime throughout the day. If it is later on I will check it the next day.
I have uploaded your work for tomorrow onto our class Teams page. Can I ask you all to email me only and not Mrs Crawford as she has other jobs to do in the school just now.
When you are submitting work could please ensure you email it to me and not put it on teams page, everyone else can see your work on teams so it has to be emailed directly to me. If you have not managed to access the work yet could you email me and I will see if the school can help.

Primary 4 Daily Teams Tasks

Hello Primary 4.  Well done those of you who have been accessing work and keeping in touch with me either by email or through our Teams page.  The work I have received so far has been of really good quality, so well done to all of you!

From tomorrow (Wednesday 13th January) I will be uploading daily tasks on our Teams page.  It will be presented differently to the grid format you received at the start of the week.  I will post instructions daily on what tasks are to be completed and where to find these tasks.

In case there are any issues with Teams tomorrow, I thought I would upload the tasks to be completed tomorrow, on our Blog so as you can easily access the work needed.

Tomorrow every pupil will complete 1 spelling and 1 reading task.  These will be issued in literacy group tasks, so make sure you know which group you work with.  Books have already been assigned on Bug Club.

You will also complete 1 core maths task and 1 mental maths task.  These will also be issued in maths group tasks, so again make sure you know which group you work with.

There is also a whole class IDL task I’d like you to try if you complete all other maths and literacy tasks.  See below for tasks:

I am hoping to send out an email to all children via Glow this evening with a walk through video of how to access Teams and where to find the tasks once you have reached the Teams page.  Please ask children to check Glow later this evening or tomorrow morning and this should support pupils in accessing all materials through our Teams page.

Thank you in advance for your patience as we navigate a new format for daily tasks.  Hopefully there will not be too many teething problems and please contact me via email if you are having any issues at all.

Take care and stay safe

Accessing Teams through Glow

Microsoft-Teams-Guidance-for-Parents.docx.pdf.

Downloading Microsoft Teams Apps

Where possible, we encourage pupils to download the dedicated App for Microsoft Teams. We also encourage pupils to install Teams on their PC or Laptop if using one to access learning via Teams. Instructions can be found here (page 2 only):

Issue – Can’t open Email, Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc. so can’t complete work issued

All pupils can download office for free and it will work on all devices. You can download Outlook, Word, PowerPoint etc to use on your phone, tablet, laptop or PC. For instructions click here:

Issue– Can’t access Microsoft Teams. 

To find Teams, pupils simply click on the Teams tile in Glow, and they should see any teams they are part of.  For specific and additional guidance, click here:

Issue – I am using a mobile phone, and when I sign in to Glow, I can’t see the tiles for Teams or Google Classrooms

We do not recommend that phones are used.  If this is your only form of accessing content please contact the school directly. If using this for a short time when you sign in, near the top you will see a grey box with ‘My Launch Pad’ and a small grey triangle. Click the triangle, and from the drop down menu, select ‘Mount Carmel Primary’. Once you move to the school launch pad you will see the Teams tile, click on a tile to access content.

Issue– I want to use my Xbox or Playstation to sign in to Glow

It is possible to use your console to access Glow. However, we do not recommend that you do so as some of the features within Glow do not work via Xbox or Playstation. Please contact the school directly if this is your only way of accessing content.
