This video was created by a Glasgow primary teacher to help access your glow account, emails and class teams.
Glow allows learners to work in a variety of ways, from collaborating with peers to working individually at their own pace. Glow services are free to all students with a Glow login and can be accessed at anytime, anywhere, and on any device. In the event of school closure, we are able to use Glow to support Home Learning.
There are many benefits of Glow for Learners such as:
Office 365 – Glow provides full access to Microsoft’s Office suite including: Mail, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OneNote, OneDrive and SharePoint. Pupils can download a full version of Office 365 at no cost. This can develop their skills with Office applications and support their learning outside school.

Sumdog
www.sumdog.com
Sumdog is a fantastic website that uses motivating games to encourage children to practise their numeracy skills. Your child has a paid maths subscription for this academic year so they can enjoy every maths game available on the website. Research findings have revealed that children who practised maths using Sumdog for 30 minutes or more a week almost doubled their mathematical fluency when compared to that of non Sumdog users.
Your child can play lots of different games. Every game comes with instructions. For every correct answer they will earn gold coins. Your child will start off with a basic avatar and an empty house. You can use the gold coins to buy clothes for your avatar or items for your house. You can earn pets as you progress through the ranks too. There are lots of different ranks your child will achieve too starting from common rat to giant panda to dolphin.
Every child has been given their own unique username and password. They need to press the log in box and enter these details carefully to get logged in.
You can access Sumdog on the website or download the free app on your ipad, tablet or smart phone. Once logged in they can then play any maths game they choose. Remind children to never give out their password to any other child.
Sumdog has been set at an appropriate level for your child. Please ensure it is only your child that answers the questions as their level may be altered past their ability if you choose to play for them. Your child’s teacher can set homework and class challenges for your child to do at home. They will be able to track your child’s progress and identify next steps. Children are familiar with Sumdog as it is used throughout the school.
