Hello everyone,
Yesterday was a terrific day of athletic competition. I'm very proud of the effort that all the students demonstrated. Especially since it was such a hot day. A big thanks goes out to Mr. D. and Mrs. Lummiss for all their hard work in preparing for the day.
Next week our grade 6 students will be taking the EQAO test. Please refer to the note sent home this week regarding the administration of the test. Students have been working hard to prepare for the assessment, and as part of this we have discussed the importance of not stressing or worrying about the assessment. Students are simply expected to put forth their best effort, but not worry nor stress about the results. Such worry and stress can be detrimental to test scores, as well as overall health.
Please find this weekend's homework below:
I am not assigning any new homework for this evening. Students are encouraged to read, as well as make sure that they have completed all homework from the past 2-3 days. The grade 5's have their Federal Government questions due Tuesday, and the grade 6's are encouraged to continue working through their EQAO booklets as practice for the test next week. As they practice it is important that they continue to practice using the "APE" (Answer, Prove, Explain) strategy that we have worked on in class.
I hope everyone has a terrific weekend!
Jonathan Carr
