LANGUAGE ARTS

Parents,

Throughout the past few weeks, our class has been focusing on media literacy. We have spoken about the different forms of media, which include newspapers, magazines, television and radio. I have posted a fun activity that will help your child with their writing skills and gain a better understanding on media literacy. This activity seeks to help students, "reflect on and identify their strengths as media interpreters and creators, areas for improvement, and the strategies they found most helpful in understanding and creating media texts." More specifically, students will, "produce media texts for specific purposes and audiences, using a few simple media forms and appropriate conventions and techniques." For a more detailed look at what is expected of your child, please refer to the curriculum document found at the Ontario Ministry of Education website.

About Me

Just as I am eager to get to know each one of my students, I feel that you should all get to know a little bit more about me. My name is Stephanie Venturin and I am a new teacher, excited to start this new school year. I enjoy reading books, watching movies and rollerblading. I have just started a new hobby, beading. I make necklaces, bracelets, and rings and will be more than glad to teach others how to make their very own creations. I have travelled to many different places in the world and hopefully I can invite you all to join me on journeys to exciting new places, right here on the internet. I like cooking, baking and trying new things. If you have something special you would like to share, let me know and I will be glad to help!
