The forum is composed
of two sessions. The first session, “Answering Parents’ Top Questions About
EQAO Assessments,” will be delivered by members of the EQAO School Support and
Outreach Team. This presentation will describe EQAO’s province-wide assessment
program and will inform parents about the EQAO assessments and how parents can
work with the school to support their child’s learning.
The second session
features an educator and author from Queen’s University, Dr. Lynda Colgan, who
will talk to parents about the importance of mathematics and how parents can
encourage their child to see the value of mathematics in everyday life.
