This year is our fourth year of the Leadership for Literacy Program. We will continue to focus our work on developing literacy and numeracy skills and to foster respectful and responsible behaviour. Ms. Gail Sajo, the Literacy Coach will be working in all the classrooms again supporting the use of research based strategies in all the classrooms and co-teaching and planning with all teachers. This year we will also be expanding our focus on math skills. Our teachers will be receiving professional development five times this year from the SSDEC Math Consultant Cathy Canavan-McGrath.

As we did last year, we will be offering Intensive Intervention for individual students one on one, or in small groups, to assist with their growth in reading and writing skills. We will use a new program: ‘Leveled Literacy Intervention’ that will target the specific skills that each student needs. We are also helping students with Math skills in small groups.

Above Miss English sits with some students in her Gr. 1,2 class, and models writing.  Ms Loretta Myles reads aloud to the class. Every week in our Integrated Culture Unit students in the Gr. 8,9,10 class and the Gr. 5,6,7 class spend a half day learning language and culture—often by going out on the land. Below: the girls are identifying plants, and Mitchell and Laura Ann pick cranberries. They are learning the Dene language as they work,  and will also be working on Science, English language assignments, traditional cooking—they made cranberry jam!! - and learning about the history of the community.
