A‘ 0»,— Hates Stereotyped Curricula Teaching WINNIPEG (CPL-if here's one thin a student can count on in Jerome Fischer's science class, it's a chance to expren I ovenifitm .wm-_ “ ‘I let them talk whenever they Wm. however they want, sound rude to v an outsider, because i want them to express their own thoughts on a subject. not jusr tell me what they think I wani hear." to Mr. Fischer, 29. says he hates to see children taught through stereotyped, regimented curric- ula—learning facts but not un- rstand the reasons. He applies these priuci les to his Grade 6 science cigar at iscoun'c Alexander School. mm, Mutilation, Fri. July 10, 1984. 7| .“Sometimes I even make them argue with me to get them started. And if they need to be brought under control. suggestion toward the group, never the individual, brings them back into line immedi- ately." During the first week of the school year, the class decides on a project. sets up work com- mittees gins working. The 1962453 class found its chief interest in the study of reptiles —iizards, snakes. chameleon: and an iguana. ‘ Most of last term's class be- ‘ came av' enthusiasts. [ Thrcugh their own efforts th students bou ht nine aquar iums, raised fish and sold them through supermarkets to raise funds for purchase of equip- ment, grew fish food. dissected fish that died, made life—cycle history drawings of observa~ tions in these fields. With one topic leading to an- other, they researched and ex- plained to themselves the prin- ples of osmosis. a Grade 10 subiect. One girl became an enthusi- e astic rock'collector and was permitted to go along on a field trip with a university geol- ogy group. By June the classroom was overflowing with fish. snakes, fmgs, rocks, preserved birds. Ilfyliirds’ nests. moths and butter- es. “Familiarity with all these ereatmes, viewed and handled each day. means the children retain the knowledge they learned because they under- stand it thoroughly.” Mr. Fischer carries his unor- thodox approach into art classes. He uses tempera, a vi- brant flat - finish water - base paint which allows mistakes to be painted over easily. And by blowing paint from the end of a straw a child is given the feeling of free-flowing lines and the exciting use of color. m THE B. & J. COFFEE SHOP AND Condloght Room PROPERLY LEASANT 1N6 P.E.l.
