Online Learning in P4/5/6/7

13th Jan 2023

Our Primary 4/5/6/7 Pupils regularly use the online Accelerated Reader and Mathletics programmes. Each term we analyse the data produced and we felt it important to share with you the results that our school achieved in this first term from September to December 2022, in both of these programmes.

ACCELERATED READER                                                                                                                         

Over the first term at school our Accelerated Reader programme has recorded that the total numbers for P4/5/6/7 were;                   

Quizzes attempted; 1404

Quizzes passed; 1312 

Total word count; 9,292,070

We also recorded an average reading comprehension understanding score of 86.4%, which is higher than our overall school target of 85%. This is a great achievement by our pupils and represents a 1.5% increase in reading comprehension levels when compared to this same period, last year. Well done everyone and keep up this great reading.

MATHLETICS

During the first term the P4/5/6/7 pupils in our school achieved  a total of 436 Bronze Certificates, 72 Silver Certificates and 4 Gold Certificates. It is also encouraging to note that over 77% of our pupils always achieve 100% in any activities completed and since the beginning of this particular school year each pupil who has accessed the Mathletics app has recorded an average of 7.64% increase in their ability levels from September to December 2022. This further highlights the benefits the Mathletics app can have on our pupils. Remember everyone has access to this app at home and teachers set tasks for your child to complete.

We trust that you will agree with us that the benefits of both of these programmes is evident and both apps greatly assists our pupils to working towards achieving their potential in both reading and general numeracy.
