S JOHN J. KOWALEWSK] My child is very weak in reading and yet the teacher refuses to send the reader home. Shouldn't she have to send it home if I ask for it? Our primary aim in language arts is to somehow kindle in children a love for reading (at which we are only moderately successful.) I can think of no quicker way, though, of discouraging or even killing this love than to insist that the sometimes dull stories labored over during the day be regurgitated again at night. ,, L, Has it occurred to you, Madam, that the words used in the school textbooks are also used in Anne of Green Gables, The Kon Tiki, or even Tom Sawyer? Only their order has been changed. Take your‘ child to the library and let him find a. book he WANTS to read. If he must practise reading, at least let him enjoy it. Mr. MacRae: My son does well in most academic areas except spelling. He invariably loses mark-s in all subjects because of it and of course his average mark is low- ered. How important is spelling? How can I help him ? Some teachers are never quite sure about their goals of instruction. They’ll set an examination, call it Math. and then deduct for spelling. It’s like losing a ball game because your comments to the referee were not couched in grammatically correct language. l As long as this confusion of goals persists amongst teachers, spelling will continue to be importâ€" ant in school. But, for your boy. spelling outside of school will be only as important as he wants it to be. He’ll never become a good speller unless he really wants to. Remember that each of us is unique in the man- ner in which we learn to spell a word. Some of us are thought spellers. In the word “different†we think “diff†as in “tiffâ€, put in “er†and add “ent†as in “bentâ€. Others are ear spellers. They have a good phonic and syllabic sense and an ear for sound. They can rattle off “antidisestablishment- arianismâ€. Visual spellers can “see†any word and they just write what is on their “screenâ€. I’m a “finger spellerâ€. I let my fingers write the word and then I check to see if it “looks†right. Of course the best spellers use all these and other methods that they’ve devised themselves. _ ‘11 Try to find out which way your child learns to spell and. help him improve his own peculiar skill. If he’s a finger spellef then it’s obviously foolish to have him recite spe ling orally. If he’s a visual speller don’t make him spell by syllables since he likely doesn’t see it except as a whole word. (He may always see it in print script and he should, therefore, print it on his paper rather than try to transpose to cursive style). Insist that your boy use a dictionary. Don’t have him interrupt his writing to check a word, just underline doubtful spelling words with pencil. When he’s completed the assignment then he should check all the underlined words. This, hopefully, will develop a spelling con- science. Usually the use of a dictionary becomes less frequent as this conscience helps him to concen- trate on spelling. _ 1 A â€"A..‘ A..." IJ. at: UM oyuuuns If your child just doesn’t seem to care, tell him that some psychologists state that there is a high correlation between ability to spell and intelli- gence. Their conclusion would be that your child is not so much a poor speller as dull-witted. I don’t believe it but maybe he will, and if he CAN DO WELL in other areas HE CAN LEARN TO SPELL if he wants to. Over the weekend my son accidentally broke three windows in the school while throwing snow- balls. The principal strapped him. I thought the Department of Education had outlawed the strap. Can I take the principal to court? S L Your son is an interesting mixture. He’s stupid enough to be throwing snowballs on a playground, unlucky enough to get caught, and brilliant enough to convince you it was accidental. There is merit in Mr. Davis’ recommendation that the strap has no place in a learning environ- ment. However, I suspect that your son already knew that he shouldn’t fire snowballs at school windows. This was not ,then, a LEARNING situa- tion. Perhaps the principal did not act as a wise, judicious parent might 'have. (I shudder to think what my father would have done.) One alternative for him would have been to ask the board to lay a charge of malicious damage. I would advise against legal action. Your son is an enough to be thro unlucky enough to to convince you it BY JOHN MacRAE [Moving Day Headache For York Police Also Moving day is a pain and a half for anyone and it’s no bet- ter for the York Regional Polâ€" ice.

The chief told members of the York Region Police Mon- day morning that the December 1 deadline â€" moving day â€" had been accomplished with a minimum of difficulty.
