Assessment

Assessment in Kindergarten

The Communication of Learning is a formal document that your child will be receiving three times during the year that has been created to provide parents a snapshot of your child's growth. The Educators will assess your child's learning in Kindergarten through their daily activities and instruction. Educators will gather observations, work samples, and have conversations with your child and interpret them based on the Ontario Curriculum. Learning is evident in all areas of your child's instructional day, from their entry, to snack time, to small group learning.
