BIENVENUE a la Classe de M. Mizrahi!
We have an exciting year ahead of us, and I’m glad that each of you is here to share in it! In order for us to make the best of the year, it is important for our expectations to be clear. I am committed to ensuring that I meet your individual and collective needs to the best of my ability. In turn, I expect that you will make your best effort in all aspects of your school life. Please take time to go over the following expectations with your child.
Getting Started
We have a lot to learn, and we cannot afford to waste any time. This means coming to class with all your necessary supplies, ready to begin your work.
Supplies include: agenda, notebooks, binders, paper, pencil cases, library books - bring these to class every day!
Homework & Reading / Assignments
Your homework must be completed EVERY DAY (unless otherwise stated). You will keep your homework in various notebooks and duotangs labeled for each subject. You are responsible for finding out what work needs to be made up any time you miss class.
Most days I will quickly answer any questions about the homework before we check it. I will then ask you if you are done or not done.
- It is important that you keep all of your assignments and tests in your portfolio in the classroom. These will be used for conferencing with your parents and with me at the end of the term.
- When there is a major project due or presentation, it is your responsibility to be present. We can accommodate any pre-arranged events, however advance notification is required.
- Sufficient time for group projects and assignments will be given in class. There should be no reason for meeting with group members unless class time is not used efficiently.
- Phys-Ed/Health: proper gym attire should be worn whenever our class has phys-ed scheduled. If you don’t bring your gym clothes to class then you are unable to participate- proper attire includes: tshirt- shorts, athletic pants, running shoes. Be sure you know on which days you have phys-ed (DAY 2 and 4) so you are not scrambling trying to find the appropriate attire.
Parents:
- Students are required to read at least 10 minutes a night (more is definitely welcome). Please supervise and ensure that this is occurring. a reading log will be sent home.
Evaluation: to ensure there is a common understanding, this is how your child will be evaluated in all subject areas:
- Level 1: achievement that falls much below the provincial standard. The student demonstrates the specified knowledge and skills with limited effectiveness.
- Level 2: achievement that approaches the provincial standard. The student demonstrates the specified knowledge and skills with some effectiveness.
- Level 3: the provincial standard for achievement. The student demonstrates the specified knowledge and skills with considerable effectiveness.
- Level 4: achievement that surpasses the provincial standard. The student demonstrates the specified knowledge and skills with a high degree of effectiveness.
- Formative assessment is ongoing during a unit and helps the teacher adjust instructional programming for each child - this does not count towards the final grade;
- Summative assessment, which typically occurs at the end of the unit, forms the basis of the grade and communicates what the student knows and can do with respect to curriculum expectations
