Parent Information Session: 'Literacy in the Primary School'

On Tuesday, 3 October from 7:30-8:30 in the library, we will be hosting a parent information session focusing on 'Literacy in the Primary School'. At the end of the 2016-2017 academic year, the Primary school made some commitments in the areas of high-frequency words, handwriting, and word study. Please join us as Mandy Ray, our Literacy Teaching and Learning Coach, and Darlene Huson, our Primary Principal, share the updates on how these commitments will help your child receive a more balanced approach to literacy in the primary grades. In addition, Jill Daley, our Primary Librarian, will share why reading aloud with your child is a valuable part of their literacy development. Parents will have the opportunity to see Jill model a read aloud with some of our students and explain the importance of each component.
