Hello conscientious Terraview-Willowfield students and parents! We have moved the blog to a new, slightly different address for 2012-2013.
The new address drops the '6', it is: tw78.blogspot.com
That's where you will find all the information that you will need about school, homework, trips, and any other important stuff we have to pass along.
Thanks,
Mr. Marshall & Ms. Ricketts

Gr. 6 - EQAO
EQAO is coming up and I wanted to remind students and parents about some details. The grade 6s have two Language sections and one Math section to complete. They will be writing one section per day on Tuesday (29th), Wednesday (30th) and Thursday (31st) of next week. Each section will take the full morning to complete and the students will follow their regular schedules in the afternoon.
Please ensure that your students get a good night's sleep all next week and eat a full, healthy breakfast each morning. Also, be sure to send a full water bottle and healthy snack to school with them.
For math I have sent past EQAO test sheets home with the students a few times over the past month. I hope that the students have reviewed and completed the pages as it will familiarize them with the format of the test and the content that may be included.
