Our fraction skills will be quite useful. Probability vocabulary: chance, likely, unlikely, certain, possible, impossible, ratio.

EQAO: St. Isabel students in grade 3 will be writing EQAO from May 25th - 29th each morning. We will be completing the standardized testing using Chromebooks during class time. EQAO booklet #6 is due Friday, May 8 (please return even if it is not all complete so that we can review & help with understanding). Some students are not finishing the writing portion of their booklet and this is a very important skill for EQAO.
