Dear Parents and Carers,

Hello! We hope you have all had a wonderful long weekend. We are missing your children sooooooooo much and can’t wait to get back to school!!! For now, we are continuing with our home learning schedule and thank you all so much for your continued support, positivity and determination to make this work.

All of the information you need for this week can found in Microsoft Teams. Please start by locating the Week 6 Home Learning Schedule which can be found in the P3 Term 4 Home Learning Schedules folder on Microsoft Teams.

We would love to see examples of any work, as well as some lovely photos of you all. These can be emailed or sent through Microsoft Teams and we can also share them on Twitter with your permission.

We will make phone calls home next week. However,  as you know, if you and/or your child would like to chat with us this week, please just let us know and we will organise a time.

Have a fabulous week!

Kind regards,

Mrs. Mori and Mrs. Schammas

Dear Parents and Carers,

It’s Catch-Up Week in Primary 3!  Please use this week to work through any lessons and activities that you have not yet managed to cover from the home learning schedules. The home learning schedules can be found in the P3 Term 4 Home Learning Schedules folder on Microsoft Teams.  

We would love to see examples of any work, as well as some lovely photos of you all. These can be emailed or sent through Microsoft Teams and we can also share them on Twitter with your permission.

As per Mrs.Brazill’s letter, we will not be making phone calls home this week but you know that you can always contact us during normal school hours if you require any support or have any questions.

Have a great week!

Kind regards,

Mrs. Mori and Mrs. Schammas

Dear Parents and Children,

We hope you have had a wonderful long weekend and are all happy and healthy.

You can find all of the learning tasks and resources for this week in Microsoft Teams in the Primary 3 Home Learning Team. Please go to the ‘P3 Term 4 Home Learning Schedules’ folder first to access the learning schedule for the week.

It would be so fabulous if every child could please access Microsoft Teams, Sumdog, and EPIC! Reading every day this week. We will be giving prizes to the children who do this (we are able to see who logs in to each of these programs, the sections accessed and for how long).

As always, we are on hand to provide remote support and guidance regarding your child’s learning and/or help you set up the technology at home. Please contact us if you need any support at all, we are here to help.

Have a lovely week,

Mrs. Mori and Mrs. Schammas

 

Dear Parents,

We hope you and your children are well. We continue to miss you all so much and have really enjoyed hearing from everyone who has logged in to Microsoft Teams so far. 

We have two special challenges for you to complete this week.

Challenge 1: Last week we had a number of children who successfully accessed Microsoft Teams from our class; well done to those children! They can choose a prize from our class lucky dip box when we return to school. It would be wonderful if everyone in our class could log in to Microsoft Teams this week as then we would know that you are accessing the learning that has been carefully planned for you. Please also leave us a little message to say hello. Anyone who accesses Microsoft Teams this week can also choose a prize from our lucky dip box when we return to school.

Challenge 2: The second challenge is to login into Sumdog Maths every day this week (with the exception of Friday which is a holiday). An important quiz has been set up for you each day which will help us to know how well you are doing and if you need any help in a range of maths topics. Please complete the quiz each day before completing any other academic work (including the original home pack).

Good luck with your two challenges, we can’t wait to see how you get on!

The suggested learning schedule for this week can be found in the P3 Term 4 Home Learning Schedule folder on Microsoft Teams. We have attached the guide on how to access Microsoft Teams through GLOW below again for your reference. It has been updated to offer instructions on how to use the Microsoft Teams App which is the easiest way to access Microsoft Teams.

On Microsoft Teams we have also now added in the option for your child to upload and store any photos, videos or work in their own individual folder (in Files) whilst home learning is ongoing. Please note that these folders can be accessed by anyone in our class but we ask and strongly advise that you only access your own personal folder. If you would prefer to continue emailing work directly to Mrs. Mori, please feel free to continue doing this instead.

Mrs. Schammas will be making phone contact with you all this week to touch base and say hello. As always, Mrs. Mori will also be in contact with you all and making follow-up phone calls to families we haven’t heard from in a while. In the meantime, please do let us know if you need any further support. 

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your ongoing hard work and support with the learning and education of your children. This has been a huge learning curve for all of us, particularly with all of the new technology we are all getting to grips with. Thank you for bearing with us and supporting us so well as we try to support you and your children at home. 

Kind regards and sending lots of love,

Mrs. Mori & Mrs. Schammas 

Updated Help Guide For Microsoft Teams

Dear Parents,

We hope you and your children are well. We are missing everyone so much! Hopefully, you have been able to enjoy some of the sunny weather at the weekend. 

This week, P3 pupils are making the move over to Microsoft Teams on GLOW. What this means for you is that activities and resources will now be stored in one central location and you will no longer need to trawl through emails trying to find the various set tasks. We will be using Microsoft Teams for the remainder of the academic year.

We have attached a guide to access Microsoft Teams through GLOW below.  Alternatively, you can download the Microsoft Teams app straight to your device.

Please note that any worksheets that have been shared have been chosen with the awareness that many people will not have a printer at home. The intention is for your child to copy and complete the work in their relevant jotters or on paper, whatever is most relevant for each task. 

Please also note that your child should still work through and complete their home learning pack from March before moving on to these new learning tasks.

Please do let us know if you need any further support. We will be in touch with you all throughout the week.

Kind regards and sending lots of love,

Mrs. Mori & Mrs. Schammas

 

P3 Home Learning Weekly Schedule Term 4 Week 2

P3 GLOW Microsoft Teams Help Guide

Dear Parents/Carers,

I hope you are well and have had a lovely Easter break. Please see below the suggested weekly learning schedule for Week 1 of Term 4 for Primary 3 pupils. 

This week may seem quite full on as I am asking you to sign-up for a few new resources (EPIC! Books, Charanga Music, Twinkl Resources etc.). This is to ensure that we can continue the continuity of your child’s learning at home in the most successful, yet simplified way. Once you have signed up for these new resources, you will notice a regular weekly routine developing. My aim is to ensure that your parental/carer home schooling workload is reduced as far as possible given the circumstances, whilst maintaining targeted and specific educational opportunities for your child. Once your child is up and running with these programmes, the next few weeks should be quite straightforward as they will come to know what is expected of them each day. 

In addition, rather than having lots of resources in different places (i.e. some on the school website, some in GLOW), I am streamlining everything for ease of use and accessibility. Therefore, all resources will now be found in your child’s GLOW email account with the exception of the weekly learning schedule which I will post to the school website every Sunday evening. 

Currently, in your child’s GLOW email account you should find the following emails:

• An invitation to join EPIC! Books for Kids
• An email detailing weekly spelling tasks
• An email with your child’s individualised spelling word list for the week
• An email containing the Religious Education resources for this week
• An email containing the Scavenger Hunt resources for this week
• An invitation to join Charanga Yumu Music Program
• An additional copy of the Weekly Learning Schedule

Your child should also continue to work through any resources that they received in their home pack in March – the priority is that the work in this home pack is completed first, particularly the maths and literacy work.

As always, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me if you have any questions or require any support.

Kind regards,

Mrs. Mori

Dear Primary 3 Parents,

I hope you and your children are well. I am missing your lovely children so much already.

Below is a suggested daily schedule for your child to work through this week. I have also sent a copy to your child’s GLOW email account.

Whilst I have provided these guidelines, it is crucial that you make this work for you and your family depending on your own personal circumstances. Health and wellbeing come first, always. If at any point these activities become overwhelming for you or your child please stop, cuddle, play and relax. 

I am also on hand for any questions and queries you may have. My email address is in your child’s home learning pack.

The additional ideas and suggestions on this school website, such as the ‘First Level Home Learning’ grid and the previous homework grids are additional resources that you can refer to if your child completes everything in the daily schedule attached below. I will do my best not to overload you with information and links as there is so much out there that it can become overwhelming to navigate. 

I hope you all manage to have a positive and healthy week. I look forward to hearing from your children throughout the week via their Glow account emails. I will also be making personal phone calls to check-in with everyone towards the end of the week to offer any help or assistance that may be required. Looking forward to chatting with you then.

Kind regards,

Mrs. Mori
