Portfolios

Portfolios went home today. There is a collection of work in the binder from the past 6 weeks (Math and Language). The math rubric is based more on the last 2 assessment pieces, the first two were tracking progress. Assessment in all subject areas is an ongoing process and evaluation is not only based on 'final tests' so over the year there will be an assortment of checklists, rubrics and descriptive feedback sent home, with and without a leveled mark. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Monday the students are invited to dress in orange and black for Halloween. Our trip to the Baxter Conservation Area is on Tuesday Nov 1, and so far the weather looks good! If possible, please send students with rubber boots if it is wet. Also, since it is that wet time of year, an extra pair of socks, mitts, and even pants, could be a good idea in the school bag.

A reminder that progress reports go home on Tuesday as well, and interviews are available to schedule now, for Thursday.  All parents are invited to schedule an interview in person or by phone. The link to interviews for myself and Mme.Seguin are listed below.

Thanks. Have a great weekend!

Portfolios, Progress Report, Interviews

Portfolios will be going home on Friday Oct 28. Please take some time to go through the work with your child and ask them many questions. Please sign the sheet at the front of the binder. All work needs to stay in the binder as it is a continuous collection for the year. 
Also, Progress Reports will go home on Tuesday Nov 1. Interviews will be held Thursday Nov 3 from 4 - 8 pm. I will hold interviews in the Learning Commons (library), not the portable. ALL parents are invited to sign up for an interview. If a phone interview on a different date is more convenient, please send me a note. If there are questions about anything, please do not hesitate to contact me at school. Thank you for your continued support.
