Literacy in Div. 12

We will be exploring literacy throughout our day during story workshop, guided reading, read alouds, explicit instruction, and through our inquiry learning.

Curricular Competencies we will be exploring:

Using oral, written, visual, and digital texts, students are expected individually and collaboratively to be able to:

Comprehend and connect (reading, listening, viewing)

  • Demonstrate awareness of the role that story plays in personal, family, and community identity
  • Use personal experience and knowledge to connect to stories and other texts to make meaning
  • Recognize the structure and elements of story

Create and communicate (writing, speaking, representing)

  • Create stories and other texts to deepen awareness of self, family, and community
  • Communicate using sentences and most conventions of Canadian spelling, grammar, and punctuation
