Access to Active Learn

Dear Primary 5, 6 and 7,

Hope everyone is doing and keeping well.

Just a quick reminder that every child should have received their logins for Active Learn and Education City. If you cannot find the login or you child was absent when they were given out please email admin@royalmile.edin.sch.uk and we will send it out ASAP.

The school code for Active Learn is 3rqh and a quick reminder that to access Education City you have to first select your country as Scotland.

If you have any other questions or queries, please email us as above.

Kind regards,

The Second Level Team

Second Level Home Learning for School Closure

Dear Primary 5, 6 and 7.

For the next two weeks, your learning will be in the format of a cross-curricular learning grid. The grid includes activities for learning in areas we are currently covering in class. You can work through these at your own pace and in an order of your choice. You can adapt activities to suit your confidence level and support available to you at home. Please try your best in these circumstances and we would love to see some good examples of learning so that we can share success on the blog.

On the Week 1 grid attached below for week beginning 23rd March, you will find details for the school admin email account. This is how you can contact us throughout school closures. We will all be available to continue to support you in your learning and answer any questions that you have. Additionally, we have turned on the comments feature on each of our class blogs. Please keep in touch!

You should have all received a pack of additional learning resources from school this week. If you were absent, we will try our hardest to get this to you. Learning activities in this pack are supplementary to your learning grid and there is no firm expectation that all of this will be completed. We appreciate that learning comes through many experiences. We are happy to support you in any way that we can in whatever way you choose to continue learning. In the near future, we will also be posting an additional list of ICT resources that can be used to extend learning at home. We hope that this helps.

We understand that these are difficult circumstances for all. Please strive to stay connected within the school community.

Kind Regards,

The Second Level team,

Ms Murray, Ms Kerr and Mr McPheely.

School Closures and home learning

During the school closures we will be updating the class blogs regularly to guide learning at home. If you have any questions please do email: Admin@royalmile.edin.sch.uk

You should, hopefully, receive a home learning pack to assist in learning from home but we will be adding additional tasks here over the next few weeks.

There will be a School Closure Learning Grid for each stage (Early for P1, First for P2-4, Second for P5-7) published weekly on the blogs for you to work through over the course of a week, or more.

Here are some Active classroom activities that you may find useful (and are referenced in the School Closure Home Learning Grids).

You should have online log-ins and passwords for Active Learn and Education City. These are guides to help you log in: Active Learn – How to access and Education city – How to access if you didn’t receive. Please do email if you do not have the password information for your child.

Happy World Book Day 2020

We all celebrated World Book Day together on Thursday 5th March 2020.

We borrowed books from the Book Box.

We wrapped up our books so they couldn’t be judged by their cover and wrote a recommendation on the front so someone else could enjoy them.

The whole school participated in a book swap. We read the recommendations on the cover to help us decide on our new reading book.

We had an assembly with Mrs Jessop about the importance of bedtime stories. Then each of us had an exciting visit from a teacher in the school who read a bedtime story to us. We even had some delicious hot chocolate!

We are also all visiting Central Library Children’s library on George IV Bridge with our class. Some of us have been this week and some of us have visits planned over the next couple of weeks. We will be receiving our new library cards and taking part in an exciting session with the librarian.

P.S.

If you took part in our homework reading challenge you can still hand it to your teacher for your chance to win a prize.

Remember that you can donate any books that you are finished with to our school Book Box.
