Ministry to The Ministry of Education will conduct reviews in reading and mathematics for Grade 6 students during the 1988/89 school year, Education Minister Chris Ward an- nounced last week. The process, known as Provincial Reviews, will record student achievement and the effectiveness of programs current- ly in use in Grade 6 classrooms. The Provincial Review of Reading will focus on the range of literacy skills needed by an individual to function effectively in his or her life and will assess student achievement in the levels of meaning in reading, reading as a source of informa- tion, and reading different kinds of materials for a variety of purposes. The Provincial Review of Mathematics will assess student knowledge and skills in arithmetic, measurement and geometry, including using mathematical concepts and arithmetic operations with understan- ding; understanding, consolidating and ex- tending the measurement skills outlined for the Primary Division and understan- ding more complex spatial relationships. The reviews will be carried out at 100 English-language schools and 100 French - language schools and will be reported publicly in December 1989. Mr. Ward stressed that the reviews are not designed as, or intended to become, a mechanism for comparing the perfor- mance of student against student, school MEMORIALS OF DISTINCTION 111111611111111101.

Absolutely not. Where and when Masons meet is public knowledge, as are their objectives and activities. The only "secrets" are the ways in which Masons recognize each other. Is Freemasonry Some Sort of Religion? It is not a religion and the subject is never dis- cussed at Masonic meetings. A Mason must have a belief in a Supreme Being, but his particular faith or creed is a personal and private matter. Are Masons Obliged to Help Each Other in Business? No, Freemasonry is not organized for member profit, career enhancement or political advantage. Its purpose is to teach morality, encourage charity and practice worldwide brotherly love. Do Masons Ever Discuss the Order with Nonmasons? . Yes, Masons welcome opportunities to talk about Masonry. As a policy, they do not solicit new members but are always ready to respond to those interested in becoming a member. If you have other questions or would like to know more, talk to a Mason.
