Student Profile
We decided to orient our Week Plan toward a realistic Grade 6 class in Toronto, Ontario and subsequently has 28 students - the capacity for a junior classroom. Our imagined classroom is made up of students from an urban, mid-low socio-economic background. The majority of the students in our classroom are from a non-English background and speak Urdu at home. Although many of the students in our imagined class are ELLs, most have been in Canada for several years and only one is a recent immigrant with weak English. To reflect the reality of most public school populations, our class has two students who are identified as having special learning needs and subsequently have IEPs. These students have accommodations in all curriculum areas.
We believe this class profile accurately reflects the reality of a typical Grade 6 classroom in the Greater Toronto Area.
