2. Can I play Kahoot at home?
Yes! I have added instructions on how to play the games I have created at home to all class Blogs:
3. Can I have the other Parent Prompt booklets?
Yes. I will add all three booklets (Early, First and Second level) to the ‘Helpful Resources’ section on the school website.
I will also add the other resource I mentioned, called ‘Every day is a learning day’. This is aimed at parents/carers of 3-6 years but it gives simple ideas on how to support Literacy, Numeracy and Health and Wellbeing at home.

4. How do we monitor the individual levels when using iPads/ICT?
A great question! Depending on the game/app it might give you access to individual pupil results. The Kahoot app and Sumdog both allow the teacher to check on what questions the individuals struggle with so we can provide support or if they are too easy, we can give them more challenging questions. Some other games/apps do not allow the teacher to monitor the results. However, as mentioned these activities are only one way we teach and practise maths concepts.
