ADSBThis week is Education Week in Ontario. Algoma District School Board trustees briefly spoke about Education Week at Tuesday’s meeting. The board has been focusing its efforts on numeracy this year, reflecting the provincial theme, ‘Achieving Excellence: Moving Forward in Math’. Examples of what has been going on include a ‘Math Game Day’ at one school. Activities focused on math skills students will need at this stage in their lives and in the future. Among the other activities celebrating Education Week are talent and fashion shows and a ‘Fitness Day’, where medical students visit the school and do presentations on healthy eating and active living. Authors and theatre groups are visiting some schools and other classes are going on field trips or walks around their neighbourhood.
