Education Week
A schpol teacher of 36 years.
ngo finds changes in today's me -
Mode Of teaching and more MO -
demi ways of presenting the sub-
ject matter, Gram' decided as she
visited the public school to get a
story for Education Week,
On Friday afternoons the Jun-
ior grades meet in the auditor-
ium for visual education films
secured through the Department
of Education.' I arrived at the
school just in time to see a film
ram Goes BackTo School
entitled "Maple Syrup Time".
Filmed in color, it showed
men tapping the trees, gathering
the sap and boiling the syrup in
the sugar houses where they
work all night when the process
is nearing completion, We learn-
ed that the Indians discovered
the secret of making maple syrup.
and passed it on to their descend-
ents.

titled "Why Punctuate?", which
illustrated the confusion which
followed the printing of a news-
paper without punctuation. One
sentence, used to illustrate how
omitting punctuation marks
changes the meaning, was, "I'm
hungry. Let's eat, Grandma",
which became "I'm hungry let's.
eat Grandma."
Films Popular
Principal Arthur Idle informed
us visual education has become
more popular in the last five to
10 years. Film councils, which
provide machines and educational
films, are being established
throughout Ontario. •
Mrs. R. D. Jermyn's grade one
pupils were studying "Commun-
ity Helpers" in their social study
periods. The fireman was their
topic for the week. A picture of
a fire, cut from the local paper,
a large colored picture of a fire-
man and short sentences, about
his work made the subject very
real to the child, Their theme
for the following week was to be
"Doctors and Nurses" and they
had made crayon pictures of,
South Heron Hospital as the
start for the project,
Reading does not begin with
learning the alphabet but by
learning sight words. After the
child has a basic vocabulary of
75-106 sight words he begins to
read. - He recognizes similar
sounds, and before he goes to
grade two he must know all the
sounds and be able to use them,
lig the end of grade three, the
pupil must be ableto read well
enough to master all the basic
skills of reading and be able to
apply them. Pupils of grades
four, five and six are handicap-
ped if a proper reading level has
not been estabilshed and, thus
the emphasis in the primary
grades is on reading.
Primary pupils work in groups
at their Own learning level. In
that way the slower ones do not.
become discouraged and the
quicker pupils are not held back.
"The cooperation of publishers
with the schools has resulted in
many improved text books", Prin-
cipal Idle remarked,
Encourage Pupils
".Crafts and handwork, some-
times labelled "frills", have a
purpose," Mrs. Jermyn told us,
for often the slower pupils have
skill along that line and tare en-
couraged by their success."
The geography of Canada is
studied by following the .courses
of explorers and the expansion of
new countries. Grade six geo-
graphy goes into 'details of the
North American continent.
Visiting the school again last
Friday morning, I attended as-
sembly. Pupils of Miss Nancy Sin-
asac's second grade were in charge
of the program with Bobby Hig-
gins as piaster of ceremonies.
The flag salute was led by Les-
ter Heywood and Brian Sweitzer.
Sandra Hunter led in repeating
the Lord's Prayer, The Bible
story, "The Good Samaritan,"
was read by Lana Keller. Sheila
Bonallie recited' a poem, "Help
One Another." •
Marion Bentley introduced the
Rev. Samuel Kerr who spoke on
the migratory instinct of birds
and fish. John Harness thanked
the speaker, Linda Hunter-Duvar
played a piano solo.
A visit to Miss Helen Anthony's
room was interesting. Her pupils
were having their poetry period.
A new poem was read in unison,
then by members of the -class. It
was written into their book of
stories and poems. Glancing
through these, we found each
poem or story was accompanied
by an appropriate picture and we
couldn't help noticing the neat
appearance of the books.
Design Book Covers
That afternoon in their art
class, these pupils were to design
book covers from which one
would be chosen for a book they
will send to a school in Egypt
through the Red Cross. It will
containsnapshots of the school
and interesting places In the
town. Stories of their school ac-
tivities will be included, There
will be an exchange of books
with pupils in an Egyptian
school.
An interesting project, "Life in
French Canada," compiled by the
class, contained many illustra-
tions in crayon, bound together
in book form.
The health lessons in the sen-
ior grades stress good grooming
and good posture. During a half-
hour health period each week,
Miss Anthony takes the girls of
the three upper grades to the
auditorium for volley ball, basket-
ball and square dancing. Prinel-
pal Idle conducts the boys' class.
After watching the girls go
through several square dances, I
decided they enjoyed it just as
much as the Senior Citiaens.
The friendly spirit of staff and
pupils made my visit to the pub-
lic school a pleasant assignment.
Once you've been a.school teach-
er you never really get the chalk
dust out of your veins and "going
back to school" brings back many
happy memories,
