Fraser Report (Toronto Sun)
Has anyone read the Sunday edition of the Toronto Sun? There are articles about the Fraser Report's findings that math scores are way down across the province. Saying there is too much time being spent on literacy and that the current exploratory style of math teaching is not working. We will see if the pendulum will start swinging back towards getting a solid start with basic skills before exploring can take place.

I can't speak to all boards, but I know that my board invests a lot more money on literacy skills (reading and writing) than numeracy/math help. Boards are concerned about padding OSSLT results...perhaps it's since the OSSLT is a graduation requirement?
