From Fernando Oliveira's introductory message ...

Ned Supplementary Courses Program (www.ned.knet.ca) - This is an eLearning program that delivers supplementary courses in Math, Science and English Literacy to grade 7 and 8 students in First Nation schools. The basic aim of this program to help students transition into high school. I recently received approval from the Ministry of Ed to deliver a grade 9 "reach ahead" credit for the Learning Strategies course (GLS10). This will allow grade 8 students to acquire a grade 9 credit while still in grade 8. I'm quite excited about this prospect and I`m currently in the throes of developing this course for the coming school year.

I hope all the partner First Nations will consider registering their Grade 7 and 8 classes into the Math course.

It will great to see gifted Grade 8 students from the region enrolled in the "reach ahead" Grade 9 credit course.
