Since the beginning of the school year staff have been learning more about "what is going on" for our students at Thomas Kidd. At the January Professional Learning Day, staff had an opportunity to look at student scanning questions, Grade 4 and Grade 7 Numeracy Foundational Skills Assessments (F.S.A) and term 1 numeracy proficiency in written updates.

Staff noticed that almost 50% of those that participated in the student scanning questions, indicated that they liked numeracy because they were good at it or they enjoyed working with numbers. Students also indicated that they found numeracy hard, they just didn't like it, made them frustrated or it was confusing.
