Language Update - ORAL REPORT/ EQAO/ FRINDLE

AA Parents,

We are reaching the end, but still so much to do! We have been busy bees :)

I announced last week to the students that they will be giving a presentation on ANYTHING they would want (except weapons or games with violence). You can find the rubric here

I will be strictly marking their presentation skills Voice, eye contact etc. Students can be as creative as they want. This is a great opportunity for students to have fun and improve public speaking skills (as they will be doing a lot of in grade 4). Students are welcome to use technology; put video or powerpoint on a USB.

Aside from that, we are still working on Frindle. We are preparing for the EQAO and we are gradually moving on to talk about Media (advertising and the impact if has on the viewers/readers).

Thanks for all of your support!
