By John Burton
BRUCEFIELD - A new math format is be-
ing introduced at Huron .Centennial School'
in Brucefield.
Over a period of many years new -methods
of teaching math have been presented to all
four Grade 3 and 4 math teachers. In the
form of games, quizzes, etc. they have .add:
ed not only a slightly competitive turn but
also an enjoyable one.
The teachers are: Mrs. Allan, a Grade 4
math teacher; .Mrs. Flunter-Duvar, also a
Grade 4 math teacher; Mrs. Alexander, a
Grade 3 math teacher; Mrs. Rock, a Grade 3
math teacher.
All four teachers are in control of their
classes using a variety of methods.
Mrs. Allan has a number of questions on

the board at the beginning of the period.
They are answered in the students'
notebooks according to what is being taught.
From there, homework is usually taken up
on the' blackboard. New homework is then
assigned. They also practice in their
notebooks and, work on worksheets. A
characteristic to distinguish it from other
math classes is they use buttons on the
opaque to solve simple addition problems,
subtraction, multiplication and division.
Four questions
Mrs. Hunter-Duvar starts off with four
questions on the board.
Division is presently being taken in class.
The students are grouped by ability and
paired off as they develop at different
levels. Textbooks are used twice a month.
Larry Uyl elected to
lead Hensall Legion
Students look forward to tests approximate-
ly every two weeks. Marks from the tests
are recorded on a graph. Math workshop
and the number book are also a part of the
routine.
Everyone involved
Mrs. Rock has everyone involved in the
lesson. X and 0 games and others of the
same sort are often played. All pupils are
paired. A question and letter is announced.
The first person of the pair to answer puts
an X or 0 in the gaine grid according to his
team. Problem solving is also used in the
math program. Worksheets are also used.
There is a test pertaining to the lesson. The
test is handed in or often taken up in class.
These methods have proven themselves to
be effective ways of teaching math.

Vanastra Good Times
defeat Hensall II, 21-2
VANASTRA - The Vanastra Good Times
ladies ball team took another big win last
week, defeating the Hensall II team by a
score of 21- 2.
The week's big SO was awarded to Good
Times' LF. The Second Base player was on
her knees, praying to get a person out and
did. The catcher decided to become a pit-
cher and lobbed the ball high enough to land
halfway to third base but is improving in
catching: SS has to remember that the first
base player is as short as herselt, but was
able to lower the ball a few feet. The pitcher
is getting better. She didn't throw the ball
•too far past second' this time, but was able to
SO some of the Hensall players this way to
keep the player from running' to second.
This is the first year for the Vanastra's third
base player, and to add to her skinned
knees, she now has a bruised chin and stiff
legs, but she was able to get even. Ask RF
how she got her black eye?
