Week Beginning 18/01/21

Good morning Primary 4.

The work you require for today has been set on our primary 4 Teams page.  If you check your glow email account, you will see that I sent everyone a video last week, showing you how to access Teams and where to find the assigned daily tasks. If you haven’t watched this video yet, can I ask that you do so now as this will assist you in accessing the tasks to complete.

To access the tasks, go to files in Teams, then class materials folder. In the class materials folder, the work is broken down by curricullar area folders, then sorted into group tasks.  If anyone is still not sure which group work to access, please let me know and I can remind you.

Best of luck today,

Mrs Travers

Thursday 14th January

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 6 Tasks for Thursday 14th January

Hello Primary 6,

I’m pleased that the majority of you have managed to access all your resources and tasks on Teams. I have posted ALL the resources and activities you need to do under the section Daily Tasks – 14.1.21. Going forward I’ll name all the sections like this but change the date.

I have posted your tasks for tomorrow below, as I know some people are still having issues accessing Teams.

I will be in school all day tomorrow supervising, so I won’t be able to reply to any emails or messages on Teams. I will reply on Friday.

Thank you for all your hard work so far Primary 6!
