Year 7 & 10 - Literacy and Numeracy Update
In Week 5, our Year 7 students will be completing their Best Start assessments and our Year 10 students will be sitting their first round of HSC Minimum Standards Tests.
If your daughter is keen to practise her literacy or numeracy skills with some quick online activities, we have Reading, Writing and Numeracy Canvas pages for her to access a whole range of tips, tricks and online tools. A great place to start is with a quick Free Rice quiz http://freerice.com/category or a Numeracy Quizlet https://quizlet.com/class/6902516/ to practise her number skills. She can also log into the SmarterMaths program using the link at the top of the Canvas Numeracy home page, using her school account.
Whether she has five minutes or fifty to spare, there will be plenty for her to do if she explores the Literacy and Numeracy Canvas Courses.
Year 10 students might also like to visit our Minimum Standards sections, which contain quick links to the sample tests for Reading, Writing and Numeracy.
All feedback is welcome and if you have any suggestions for different tools or websites you would like to see included in our Literacy or Numeracy Courses, please email cmcgillicuddy@
