Introduction to the Junior Division
 

 From the Ontario Curriculum, Grades 1-8: Language, 2006 (revised) the Ontario Ministry of Education notes:

The expectations for Grades 4 to 6 focus on students’ ability to use their knowledge and skills in listening, speaking, reading, writing, viewing, and representing to understand, critically analyze​, and communicate a broad range of information and ideas from and about their multicultural, multimedia environment.

Junior students’ language knowledge comes from their life experiences and prior knowledge and from the foundational language knowledge and skills acquired in the primary school years. The expectations in the junior years build upon this foundation. Because the base of knowledge, experience, and skills varies from student to student, it is important for instruction to be differentiated to meet the needs of individuals and small groups of students.

For a complete summary of the Junior learner from the Language Curriculum refer to the document below:
