Registration

This morning, those children who are here have all had a practise of registering on google classroom today in preparation for next week and after the Easter holidays. I have created an assignment on the Primary 5 google classroom called Attendance- each morning, the children have to check in by 9:30am by simply putting a Y in the box and pressing enter next to their name for that day.  Those children who are at home just now if they can have a practise of this today too please so that I can see they know what they are doing. 

I have also posted an assignment called practise- where the children are practising completing a task and then handing it in. To hand it in there is a button on the doc page called ‘turn it in’ they can press this and then click hand in. That allows me to know the children have completed the work and I can provide feedback for them individually if need be. If you are home just now could you please have a go at this as well so that I know you are understanding and can prepare. If you are unwell obviously that is not essential right now but when is best for you. 

Thank you all for your support. We had a big chat this morning and we talked about the importance of having a timetable daily for what our day will look like as we usually have in the classroom. I shared with children that I will be doing one every night for the following day so that I myself am also still in routine as it is really important for our mental health. I will still be getting up, showering, getting dressed and putting make up on like I would be for work. We talked about when they are doing school work to wear their hoody or jumper if they choose so that they know this is learning time and then they can change when it is free time.

Lots of love to all those that are at home just now, we are thinking of you! We are all in this together and we need to stay positive. I am looking forward to a new challenge of learning/working from home.
