Langloan Primary School

Parent/Carer

A big thank you to Tesco Express in Coatbridge (just along from the school) for allowing us to leave jotters and pencils for parents to collect when out doing their essential shopping.  We have supplied two different coloured jotters.  The green jotter is for P1-3 and the red jotter is for P4-7.  Just ask staff for the relevant jotter you need and they will supply you with it and a pencil too if needed.  We have restricted it to one jotter and one pencil per pupil. Thanks to Miss Glencross for helping to organise the delivery of these resources!

Thanks for you cooperation,

Staff will not be online on Friday or Monday as we will be undertaking development work, but we have provided new learning tasks today as normal for you to use if you so wish.

Week 5 – Elephants Cannot Dance

Hi P7 Parents/Carers

I have been sent some useful information from Coatbridge High School with regards to transition for our P7 pupils. I will attach the information below for you to share with your child. I have given you a link to the CBH school blog, this contains lots of up to date information. CBH sent a Meet the Departments document, which I have also linked below.  I have also provided links to a virtual tour of CBH, which was recorded over three parts and can also be found on the CBH school twitter account.

Transition periods can be a daunting and scary time for some pupils so it is important to talk with your child about how they are feeling and to spend time going through resources together. Myself, Mrs Waddell and Mrs Smith are also happy to help in any way we can to try and alleviate any fears or concerns you may have as a parent or any worries your child may have.  You can send your enquiries to elainepaterson@langloan.n-lanark.sch.uk.

As it stands I only have information from CBH at the moment and will post information from St Ambrose and St Andrew’s when I have it. Over the next week or so we will be posting more general transition resources that you can work on with your child.  Staff are finalising some of the details before we share it with you.

Thanks

Mrs Paterson

A Special Message for our Langloan Family ❤️

Remember you don’t always need to print the worksheets from you class folder to complete them. When you click on the PDF you will see a download button at the top of the screen. If you are working on a phone, iPad or tablet clicking on this will bring up the worksheet to full size. Take a screenshot of the worksheet and you will be able to edit it in photos to add the answers or you can open it in a drawing app or any photo editing app that you like to use. You can then save and share your work with your teacher on Teams. You can also download and edit on a laptop too. Here is an example from the P1 Folder

We know that some of our families are struggling to access teams.  I have provided some helpful information that my assist you at this time.

It is best to download the app.  When you have done this it will ask you to sign in.  You MUST ONLY sign in with your child’s FULL Glow username, e.g gw12smithjohn@glow.sch.uk

The part I have highlighted in black is very important.  This helps the site to recognise that it is a school account. Signing in with your own email address will not work as your child’s Glow account has been added to their class team tile.

You will then be redirected to their Glow sign in page to put in their password, which is the same one that they would always use to sign in to Glow.  You may be asked to set the time zone if it is the first time you have logged in- select Dublin from the drop down menu.

I have added a guide below which you may find useful and all GLOW powerpoints and advice sheets can be found in the parent information tab of the blog.

Some great advice on how to access Glow from your consoles.
