Communications ’78, a conference which focused on experiences in language instruction and communications, is the largest undertaking of its kind the Separate Board has ever tried. Even though at- tendance by teachers was compulsory, there was an atmosphere of en- thusiasm at the chance of being able to exchange views on different methods of teaching and pick valuable concepts from special guest speakers. Boogie at the Y‘ everyWednesday this summer There were 30 two-and- a-half hour sessions on various areas of com- munications teaching and theory, spread out over the two days. All three divisions â€"â€" primary, junior and in- termediate were covered and there were also discussions designed for principals and vice- principals. Susanne Eden, a consultant coâ€"ordinator for programs has set up professional activity days (PA) for the board over the past five years. This year, she began in January lining up speakers and making arrangements to make sure teachers get the most out of the time spent out of the classroom. She was pleased with the early results. “This is a big un- dertaking for a small system like ours," she said. “We have strong support, though, from administration who stress and encourage professional develop- ment.” She pointed out these PA days are not a “oneâ€" shot deal” for teachers and that the work done would be put together with other workshops used for program‘ plan- ning for next year. Teachers had a choice of which presentations they could attend, most of which were prepared by three program con- sultants: Claudette Wheeler, a junior- intermediate consultant for social sciences (history, geography) and Her present employer E.T.H.O.S. has com. missioned her to un- dertake filmstrip artwork on subjects ranging from the metric system to Inuit For the past five years the artist has committed herself to commercial artwork, painting and editing educational filmstrips. She started to paint seriously at the age of nine and within three years had sold her first painting. The Richmond Hill Public Library . presents an exhibition of paintings by local artist Jennifer Wood, throughout the month of July in the Auditorium of the Main Library on Wright Street. Mrs. Wood, a native of Dakota, received her fine arts training in Cin- cinatti, Columbus, Ohio and Berkely, _ California. Teenagers in Richmond Hill and Thomhill who are looking for something to do this summer are invited to the Family Y’s “Wednesday Night Fever”. The program is disco dancing from 8 to 10:30 pm. every Wednesday at the Y Centre on Dunlop Street. Curtis Levy, an 18-year- old Thornhill resident who dances and models professionally, will give dancing instructions from 7 until 8 p.m., each Wednesday, but lessons L oca/ artist has exhibits at the library THE LIBERAL. Wednesday. July 5. 1978 â€" C-5 English; Betty Goulden, a general consultant for the primary division and Pauline Cassidy, a junior- intermediate consultant for mathematics and science. “Very few teachers realize how much work goes into organizing these PA days." said Ms. Goulden. “This is the first year I‘ve helped work on them from the ground up -â€" usually I just walk right into a workshop and that‘s it. You begin to appreciate that they're worth a lot more." In one of the workshops called Language in the Content Area. teachers were asked to explain what makes a light bulb light up when it is con- nected to a battery with two wires. After verbalizing their thoughts, they were asked to write down what they had discussed. The idea was to frustrate teachers so they could better understand a student’s position â€" especially when he or she has trouble explaining something they did in class. “How often do we give our kids a chance to write out what they’ve ver- balized?" asked Pauline Cassidy. “It can be very frustrating for them to go through the steps of scientific reporting from the actual experiment, to the verbalization and finally to the actual write- u up. That was one example of part of a work session teachers could have at- tended. On the first day of the conference. there was little evidence of teachers taking off early. About 25 of those at- tending were teachers from other Separate School Boards. Represented were Waterloo, Durham, Simcoe and East York. Next year, organizers will work on a similar PA program but have not yet decided if it will run in February or June. ' A c c o r d i n g t o Superintendent Frank Bobesich, none showed up. The style of “fantasy” art which she has ex- plored recently is proving a boon in a long-range project in which she is engaged at the present time - a series of four film strips designed to in- troduce both elementary and secondary school students to Norse mythology. The exhibition will be open for viewing during Library hours. Board trustees, who have the final say on how many PA days ad- ministration can have in a given school year, were also invited to the con- ference. FOr several years Mrs. Wood has used her filmstrip as a teaching device to induct students into the craft of com- mercial art. At her studio prospective artists are apprenticed and gain valuable experience on products which must stand the test of rigorous criticism. legends and beliefs So, the Y set up an evening, each Wednesday with “boogieing to the beat - the latest steps to the latest music" in a coffee house atmosphere. are not compulsory Gwen Halliday, program director for the Y said, “There's no place for teens to go in Rich- mond Hill in the sum- mer.” About 30 have registered so far and Mrs. Halliday said, “you don’t need a partner, just come along."
