Congratulations! You have almost completed a year of your education at Our Sisters’ School. Before advancing to the next grade, we have the privilege of reflecting meaningfully together on the past year, measuring growth, and looking forward to the future. This is metacognition in action!
This year, the Portfolio Project has three basic steps:
Think about artifacts and learning experiences

Prepare and share virtual presentation
Your teachers will guide you through this process week by week and all assignments will be found on your Google Classroom but the directions for the project as a whole as well as the reflections for each subject can be found here: Full Portfolio Guide
