Glow Scotland

Yes the highly popular national talent event is back once again and this time it has a Christmas theme!

Why not join us on Thursday 17th December from 1.30pm – 3pm to see what fantastic talent the pupils in Scotland have to offer?

Our last event before the summer featured 15 wonderful acts with singing, comic performances, dancing and even bagpipes all showcasing within Glow. Make this event just as good by registering your interest with Jennifer McDougall - j.mcdougall@ltscotland.org.uk and taking part in this exciting event.

You don’t have to peform to join us on the day, you can be part of our audience and enjoy the event from the comfort of your own classroom. For more details go to glowhelp.me/thursdays and we hope to see you there on the day!

Our first online debate takes place this Thursday, the 11th of June. The Debate will come live over Glow Meet from the National Debating Group. Join the Glow Meet at 4PM to watch Bearsden Academy and Aberdeen Grammar debate the motion ‘This House Believes Now More Than Ever We Need A United Kingdom’ – this should be very interesting, and there will be a chance for virtual spectators to ask questions after the speeches.

Do you teach P6 or P7? Are you planning to work on World War 2, the Victorians, Scotland, favourite authors, Global Citizenship and international education, Astronomy, or even planning to work on a European Tour Guide Mission?

People always ask me what they can ‘do’ in Glow, or where they can find ‘resources’ or ‘people’ to help them in their work. To help this, we put together a series of events that would bring people together to share ideas, plans and resources related to either stages or curricular areas. We called them ‘Building Glow Communities‘, as they’d put people in touch with others that had a common interest or area of expertise.

We had the first event a couple of weeks ago for P6-7 teachers, and you can find some of the groups created at the event linked above. Tomorrow and Wednesday will see the second event take place for teachers of English, with a number of other events planned to take place at the beginning of next session. Watch out for a blog post in the near future sharing what was created at the English teachers event!
