Two more weeks until the EQAO Math Test

Hi folks,

just a reminder that tutoring is available on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of each week to students who need assistance with Math until the end of the year.

Please review time with your child to ensure they can measure elapsed time as some still have difficulty. Also, review addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Next week, sample of EQAO tests will be sent home as homework to practice in preparation for the big day. We have already done two tests this year so students should already be familiar with the format and content! The EQAO test is scheduled for the last week of May and the first week of June!

The "Social Studies" program for the grade 3 is nearly completed - focus will be on the grade 4 program.

We have completed the grade 4 "Science" program and will be working on completing the grade 3 curriculum after EQAO until the end of the year.

On June 14th, the Grades 3 are going to Black Creek Pioneer Village and the Grades 4 are going to Medieval Times. Forms have already been sent out and signed. We are now collecting money for the event.

Also, we have planned a visit to "Le Papillon". This will be our final excursion! We will also be collecting money for this event. All monies should be collected by May 27th latest!

PLEASE DON'T FORGET! .... this Friday and next Monday are holidays! Please remember not to send your child at school as there will be no classes and no one at school!
