Here you will find a variety of resources which will help support you in your English and literacy studies in S1 to S3. There are our popular “Literacy Mats” which offer advice, examples and success criteria for a whole range of literacy tasks. You will also find sentence start cards to help improve the fluency of your writing and advice and success criteria for talk activities.

If you wish to work on the technical accuracy of your writing, there are also language activities to help build your knowledge and skills.

We have also included links to really helpful websites which allow you to work on your English and language skills using games and on line resources.

Although there is progress in suppressing Covid, @scotgov has announced remote learning will continue until mid February. We will review again on 2 February. I appreciate this is difficult for pupils and families. We will restore face to face learning as soon as we safely can do.

Been noticing that I have had stuffy heads, tired eyes from all the increased screen time and noticed I am not drinking enough water Highly recommend a hydratem8 bottle or something similar to remind you to drink Easy way to set targets and monitor how well you are doing! https://t.co/hvqiIPKzfl
