The course highlights child development for grades 4 to 6, the Ontario curriculum and the recent Junior Expert Panel Reports and its learning expectations, the importance of assessment and evaluation, issues of reporting student progress, implications of EQAO testing, and cutting-edge, research-supported, instructional practices for students.
