Thank you everyone, again for being patient with the learning platform on Office 365. Here are hopefully some answers to your queries.
If you have not already done so, to access the platform you need to go to office 365 at www.outlook.com and enter the email address and password that was sent in a recent email. Once logged in, the children can then access teams, by clicking the tiles in the top left corner of outlook (9 little white dots in a square formation) and then selecting the Teams tile from the list that shows up.
Some tablets including ipads also need you to download several apps before you can use office 365. These are: Outlook, Word, One drive, Powerpoint and Excel.
Once into teams the children need to go to teams. Each day, I'll post a Literacy/reading task, Maths and Topic assignment for children to do. Once these are done if I have asked for work to be uploaded, you add it back to the relevant assignment. Assignments are always found in the general channel. Some children will have managed to type straight on to their assignments, but this often depends on the compatability of the device that has been used. If this is the method they have used they just click save and turn in. However, the easiest method is to do their work in books. When completed, you need to take a photo. Once you have taken a photo, you go back into the assignment and at the bottom there is an add button. You select this then in the pop up window, choose add from device and turn in. I hope this is clear if not this video should also help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGuv9wHCWYE
