Class for ‘Slow Learners’

By MBS. B. FISHER

As Education Week — Mar-
ch 6 to 12 — is fast approaching
Castiegar-and District teachers
will be writing about educat‘on-
al topics of this area,

Our special classroom, in
which we all, at the Kinnaird
Elementary school, take an in-
terest, is that of Mrs. Lynn's
“Slow Learners’ Class." Mrs,
Lynn, with her enthusiasm for
the children, is an exceilent
cholce to guide these youngsters.
She has had many years of wor-
thwhile experience in multi-
grade classrooms. -

‘Most of us realize that chil-
dren do. not all progress in-gro-
wing and in leatning at the same
rate, Children showing signs of
having ., difficulty | progressing
with the’ majority of their class-
mates.aré given extensive tests
to find their particular level: of};
learning.

. Once ir this class. the child-
ren begin at, their own learning
stage, regardless of age, and pro-
gress at their own rate building
on knowledge that has been
tered. These children _ receive

reading, - arithmetic, spelling,
writing and are stres-

tinual failure. to: achieve any

‘sed. These subjects are taught in
many ways to. appeal to the
child’s inferest; also, these child-
ren do daily homework assign-
ments in the “tool” subjects,
But these children are allow-
ed to enjoy art and music desides
gaining an appréciation of the
mecessary ~ matters in

test results” or pro-
gress discourages them from try-
ing. Once thése-children misun-
derstand ‘a basic ‘problem they
would, in a regular class, be ex-
pected to go on with the rest of
their grade,

(Adding ney knowledge to

health, science: and social studies|
courses. «

In an ordinary class these
children would probably be ex-
pected to compete with the fas-
ter learning children, Thelr con-

or a vold of
knowledge fs like trying to build
on quicksand. ‘We ‘feel that in
this special “classroom — these
children will’ learn to the best
of their. individual. abilities.

Dear let

Tsdm . the . person. who put
th tice in the Arrow Lakes
News,: “Letters of Protest. Again-
st the High Arrow ‘Dam = Want-
ed by+H. W. Herridge," on. the
request‘of our MP. himself.

(Now. you think that is‘very
one-sided. Not ct.all. When Mr,
derridge made that request’ the
ones in favor were already: well
organized, all had: made ‘their
wishs “known in Ottawa, These
included the most powerful na-

~|tion ‘on earth, the U.S.,: the, B.C.

the Trail -Ch
of Commerce, the water resourc-
es committee of the Associated
Boards of Trade and various ‘in-
dividuals ke yourself. °°

Not ‘one of these you will
note would be directly affected
by the flooding: of. the “Arrow
Lake valley. It is very easy. to

death by
when it is going to happen to
someone else.

I meet so many ‘people who
say “What's the use of objecting,
the -government will do as they

lease nvay.” ‘Now wher. peo-
ple take that attitude it is: easy
for bureaucracy and dictatorship
to take over. Democracy’ ‘de
mands that even the small mir-
orities shall have a voice in our
governmental decisions’ and the
right’ to be heard.” ~
God knows we inthis valley
are a minority out Mr. Herridge,
in encouraging those opposed to
speak. up and let. Ottawa know
their... views, is upholding the
highest ! principles of “democracy.
As @ result of more. than 1,600
letters. of protest, our ministers
of justice arid external attairs
on the ‘International Joint
mission can now view. the

erous angles instead of’ only the

a angle of the interests who would
gain monetary profit from this

venturg.
