Hey Ali-A Kaiden in Primary 7 has been busy creating this LED light up card for you. He’d love to see it on video. He designed, soldered and created it all by himself :-) Happy Christmas!

Teachers, parents, students: I've decided to start a daily read-aloud of WONDER! Still figuring out platform, to be announced next week, but I was thinking at 12pm every weekday: I'll read a few chapters and add a little commentary. Stay tuned for details. #WONDERreadaloud

Finding Microsoft Teams both very useful and very frustrating. Inability to order posts chronologically and the fact that the search function doesn’t work is making it very hard to keep track! And PLEASE Education Scotland can we get the chat and video function enabled for learners?

Another Microsoft Teams issue when using it for home learning is the lack of ‘draft’ function. I have to set work for the day ‘live’. This isn’t ideal when I want to plan work for the week and because I start working at 5.30am. Don’t want notifications disturbing learners!
