Each month, school newsletters include a one-page insert called Home-School Connections. It describes ways in which families can enhance student learning at home in the areas of literacy; numeracy; healthy, caring schools and improving student learning.
This month’s Home-School Connections (Pdf) [1] features:
- Literacy and Numeracy: Back to School with Picture Books
- Numeracy: Positive Messages to Encourage Students in Math. For more positive messages and research about math and growth mindset go to Youcubed [2].
- Healthy, Caring Schools: Wear an Orange Shirt to school on September 29 and support the National movement to ensure ~Every Child Matters [3] ~
- Improved Student Learning: Kindergarten programs will be based on the expectations outlines in The Kindergarten Program, 2016 Pdf [4]
