Times-Advocate, 1987-04-29, Page 11Itse vwhera 1 Art recognized as di Visual,arts'courses were once con- sidered a frill in the school system. Now. however, art is recognized as a discipline. says Christine Anger, Vises Mid- dlesexrts Consultant County Board of Education. While some people might see art as the icing on a cake, Anger considers Times -Advocate, April 29, 1987 Page 11 scipline in county school system it to be a necessary ingredient in a well-rounded education. "Art is everywhere. it's part of advertising, fashion and interior design," she says. "It helps to in- fluence what we wear, how we decorate our home and even how we feel. Cool colours, like blue, can make us feel relaxed, while warm colours, such as red and yellow, can make us feel full of energy." It can be difficult to fully appreciate art if we havoa.limited knowledge of it. Some of .Picasso's works might look to.us more like the dabblings of a five-year-old. But tollie trained eye, Picasso's art can be understood and admired. Picasso had to master the mechanics of drawing, painting. printmaking and ceramics before he could leap into the World of the abstract. Students also must learn the basics before they can develop their potential. Two years ago, the provincial . Ministry of Education made -arts compulsory at the secondary level. As a result, all high school students take at least one arts course. They can choose Visual Arts, Music or Theatre GET SIX 4-H PROJECT AWARDS received six projects awards at Tuesday's Middlesex Achievement Ni Kaylene Roloson, Lori Lansink and Jennifer Reymer.

The theme is --Come Learn with Me". We encourage and welcome you to visit our school. The activities began with a Mass and Open House, Sunday. A Spring Tea and French plays will take place. Thursday. Our school has been very involved with floor hockey tournaments. We have done verywell taking two firsts: with junior girls and intermediate girls and a runner-up: in junior boys. Congratulations to Amy Sullivan who was runner-up in the Middlesex County public speaking contest held at Medway High School. Imaginary trip at United Church "This is my Father's World" and our portion of That world is without. war: without famine and without persecution. Every Sunday we are called to celebrate again the resurrec- tion of our Risen Lord. At Lucan United Church Sunday. Rev. Darrell Shaule took us on an im- aginary trip to.ferusalem - along the Jordan River, by the Dead Sea, the Sea of Galilee - into the Garden of Gethsemane to the Mount of Olives and along the road to Emmaus - seven miles from Jerusalem. Now to relive again the joy those first women felt. on that first Easter Sunday morning, it was given to them to tell the good news. Ile is risen, and then to Peter who came to confirm their report and on down to the two disciples walking along the Emmaus Road. Depressed. deeply.sorrowful. fear- ing perhaps for their own lives. and then "Jesus came" and spoke to them. Could we imagine ourselves as part of that Bible Study Group. The old testament prophecies came pour- ing forth. everything that had ever been written came into their minds in that walk and they realized who their teacher and companion was. If you have experienced God's power in your life, even if you don't know all the answers in to -day's com- plex world - during this walk you will feel a renewing of your spirit within you and a strengthening of your faith. "tie is risen from the dead and He is Lord'-. The children's story told by Mrs. Coughlin was a lesson in being a good master. A small boy left his dog out -in a thunderstorm even though he knew. his dog was frightened of them. His dog. you see. had a responsibili- ty to guard the ball and the catcher's mitt which were left in his care at home plate. Because the dog knew his respon- sibility, he stayed regardless. Jesus is our Master and we should be eager to obey, however unlike the small boy, who was a careless master, Jesus never gives us a command which Ile knows we are unable to do. Arts. In Visual Arts they can choose basic. general or advanced levels, depending on their needs. The present guidelines, with balanced emphasis on content and process, expose students to varied art forms, materials, tools, techniques and styles. For example, students may be asked to produce a painting. White they work on creating the pain- , ting. they also learn about design components. They discover the im- portance of line, shape, colour, com- position and texture. Pupils in grades 7 and 8 are now re- quired. to study Canadian art. The study gives students a foundation in the art of their own country. More im- portantly, it helps them to understand the art they see not only in their own - homes, but also the art that appears in magazines, television programs, schools. galleries, public buildings, and other places throughout the coun- try. The study includes the bold and rugged style -of the Group of Seven -- Canadian painters who captured the spirit of the counrty in their works. When students study Visual Arts, they learn about design, art history and studio (exploring tools and materials, and becoming proficient in using theme. They learn to observe their surroundings and to translate their perceptions into visual forms such as sculpture or drawing. They examine and appreciate art works from different periods and/hey learn to evaluate and communicate. In summing up, Anger says, "It's real- ly another way of learning how-to solve problems." She concludes, "It has always been important for the student to create the art work. whether it's a painting, an album or a logo design. But what we recognize now as being equally im- portant in the student's development is the process that he or she goes through to complete the art work." Today, providing opportunities for young people to develop satisfactory ways of .problem solving is no frill. it's an essential part of education.

God said lie would bring His people out of bondage in Egypt into a land flowing with milk and honey. The_ devil will try to bring God's people in- to compromise with the world. In Ex- odus 8 we read how God had Moses ask Pharaoh to let His people go. or God would smite the Egyptians with plague§. In verse 26 Pharaoh tries to get God's people to compromise by staying in Egypt to worship. • if you are going anywhere with God. make up your mind to go all the way. in Chapter 10:9 Moses told Pharaoh all they had must go.. Pharaoh answered only the men could go. He wanted to keep the children in bondage. If the devil can- not succeed in holding down parents. he will try. to hold down the children • by secular teaching in schools. Like -Moses, take our children with us to serve God. Rev.
