News Photo Professional development days a mystery? BY DAVE ZYLUK Parents normally receive their first warnings about professional development days a week or so before the day. To the students these days are holidays, and to the parents they are some- what of a mystery. In the Huron -Perth Separate School system the belief is that the amount of work put into such a day will be reflected on the day and after. If very little prep- aration is involved the results will be poor, if the organizers are diligent andprepare carefully this will be shown by good results. The next county professional development day for the Huron - Perth system is set for Monday February 2, 1976. This is the second professional develop- ment day of this type, for the 1975-76 school year. The first such day was on October 20, 1975. To prepare for these days a committee has to be chosen and this is made up of four teachers, representing the four school zones in the system, and a superintendent, representing the administration. The five choose a chairman and com- mence preparations. After the October day the com- mittee sent a survey to the teachers looking for the weak- nesses and strengths of the day. The survey also asked the teachers to identify areas where they could improve their class- room interaction with their students. The areas identified were various and thc committee designated four areas for con- centration as these were the most common areas of concern. Generally speaking, language arts, physical education, art and design of units of work were to be provided for by the commit- tee. The committee this year has within its ranks people who have been involved in teacher ed- ucation either as a student or lecturer, so knowledge of food resource people is abundant. Language arts is to be covered in two areas. Marion McAlister, from Toronto, will be discussing with teachers, identification and remediation of weaknesses as diagnosed through oral reading. Publishers have also been invited to present their reading texts to the teachers so that they are aware of new books on the market. Sue Leonard is corning from London to have thc teachers participate in a K-3 physical education work- shop. The committee also recognizes the fact that there are many good teachers within the Huron - Perth system and has Mrs. Glenndinning and Mrs. Melady leading art workshops. Units of work arc covering grades 3 to 8 and the combina- tion allows the educators to choose between Geography, Science and Social Studies. The idea of choice is not limited to just this latter area, as can he seen many areas are provided and it would be inconsiderate ,on the part of the committee to expect the teachers to part- icipate in all the workshops. The day therefore, has been split into two, punctuated by lunch and each teacher chooses one subject arca to cover for each part of the day, thus covering two workshops. By giving the teachers this choice the committee hopes that each teacher will be able to partici- pate in an area where his needs will best be served. The jurisdiction of Huron - Perth covers two counties and will therefore require teachers to travel to these workshops. With this in mind the Profes- sional Development Committee has chosen three schools L Visit Our Store FOR A COMPLETE LINE OF Groceries * Confectionery * Novelties * Dairy Store MAIN ST - ZURICH PHONE 236-4930 Ask f rthis older from our representative, HUGH SELDON who will be at: LES PINES MOTEL EXETER TIJESs, FEB. 3 If you require financing to start, modernize or expand your business and are unable to obtain it elsewhere on reasonable terms and conditions or if you are interested in the .FBDB management services of counselling and training or wish information on government programs available for your business, talk to our representative.
