Home Learning: Google Classroom

google-classroom-logo

COVID-19 school closure

We are in new and challenging times.  With the coronavirus pandemic, we are following government guidance and are offering places in school to children who have an EHCP, a social worker or who have one parent defined as a key worker. All other children are at home and are undertaking learning set for them daily via Google Classroom.   

On this platform, teachers can set activities, set work, mark, give feedback and communicate with their class.  Children in the older years are already familiar with the platform through ICT lessons. However, many children will need support  logging on,  creating and turning in work. 

In this first week, please do not worry if you are struggling to adjust to the new routine or if your child is taking time to adjust to online learning.  This is totally to be expected.  We would just ask that all children sign in each day and try to turn in one piece of work daily or let their teacher know what they have been reading/doing.  Children without access to the iinternet, should undertake work from their home learning packs and parents can email class teachers for further activities.

The main thing is to keep safe and well; in the meantime, reading is always a fabulous go to!
