In the past, students were given a mark of zero for:
 Incomplete homework  Late assignments  Missing assignments  Non participation in class activity  Cheating

Problems with this Practice:
 A mark of zero is often an inadequate reflection of student learning.  A zero is skews the overall average for the negative (outlier).  A zero is often given to as a consequence for learning behaviours, not a learning outcome, essentially serving as a punishment for infractions. (T. Guskey)  Although often intended to motivate students, a zero can have the opposite effect on students, instead causing some student to give up.  If a grade or mark is intended to provide information about performance, a zero offers no feedback or suggestions for improvement.

The purpose of this portfolio is to give an overview of your child’s progress in all the developmental areas throughout the school year. Samples of your child’s work are collected and used to show his/ her learning. Your child helps to make decisions about what to put into this portfolio. They are accessible to you and your child at anytime throughout the school year.

The work samples collected in this portfolio will give you an idea of the curriculum and daily activities used in our prekindergarten program.

During the preschool years, young children greatly expand their knowledge, understandings and abilities. They actively explore and discover their world through experiences using their senses of touch, sight, smell, hearing and taste.
