Some of you have still to complete your Maths Diagnostic on Sumdog for Primary 7 from last week. This should be your homework priority this week.
For those of you that have completed the Maths Diagnostic, there is a Sumdog Spelling Diagnostic which should be completed this week. This will assess your spelling and reset you Sumdog Spelling for Primary 7.
When this Spelling Diagnostic has been completed I will be able to reload the Primary 7 Spelling words ready for you to use.
