Glow Scotland

Celebrate Scotland’s year of homecoming in your classroom

Glow is providing Primary School teachers with the chance to partake in a ‘Homecoming’ topic with schools across the whole of Scotland. In January there will be an on-line classroom where teachers from P4-7 can contribute to, and get ideas from, that will have great potential for cross-curricular teaching and learning.

As a teacher, you will get the best of the ideas by planning with teachers from across Scotland – just submit ideas and they will be collated and shown to everyone else. Each week there will be on line challenges that you can take part in, and you can share the work your class produce on Glow as well.  See what other school across Scotland are doing, and encourage your pupils to peer assess other people’s work as well.

There will also be additional opportunities for you to use technology to enhance the children’s learning, and the on-line classroom will show you how to do this through tutorials and advice. For example – have you ever thought about using animation to inspire the children? The on-line classroom will show you where you can get software (even for free!), provide planning resources, and also show you how to use it.

If you want to be a part of this innovative way of teaching, email Sat Bance on s.bance@LTScotland.org.uk to express your interest. In the meantime, share your thoughts and ideas on the discussion forum.
