And the Honou Dear Editor: D Here are a few pointa from a letter that I sent 10 Mr. Chudleigh on October 2, 1997. p 1 arn a teacher wiîh the Halton Board of th Education and I do not support the w changes that are in Bill 160. How doos this legislation help improve the quality of bit education for Ontario students? in The suggestion 10 use non-teachers for music, library, guidance, etc. makes no sente. How will they manage the diverseW needs and behaviours of the children? Child development and teaching strategies et are essential in teaching a class. Clasroom management of behaviour and <c actual logistica of lime management are in the teachers' realm of expertise. 1 need and use my preparation lime 10 the fullest extent and still plan before- school, aller achool, on the weekends and before achool officially starts in August. 1 use the lime to plan lessons 10 meet the special needs of the students. I do not use laat year's plana or notes. Each group of students is onique and different atrategies need t0 be employed. or example, i[ I have a clasa of children .itih many attention difficulties, more hands-on activities are required, which entails planning appropriate lesson content wish specific manipulative activities. The ideas for a longer achool year and longer school day are flot realistic. Children need a break. They find il diffi- cult in the elementary ochoola 10 pay attention for long periods of lime. Children gel tired in the oflemoon. Each Monday I am aI achool for an 8:25 a.m. calendar meeting with aIl the staff 10 go over the many events that are running in our school. I arn at school each Monday until about 5 p.m. for a weekly meeting, team plan- ning or committee meeting.

Dear Editor: Our chats of grade 4 and 5 studento [rom Martin Street Sehool visited the Milton Faîl fair on Kid's Day. Before our trip, we developed a survey ta find out how people feel about the faîl fair. Below are tome examples of whaî people said to us: "We came 10 the fair ta show our ani- mala, because of the people, t0 spend money, and 10 teach people about farn- ing."1 "People have been coming to the fair [or up 10 70 years." "Some people spend as much as $250 at the [air." "Milton bas a [ai fair because it's a tra- dition, for the food, 10 bring the communi- ty together, to leamn more about agricul- ture, and 10 share knowledge about [arm- ing." "Milton benefits from having a [ail fair because il brings money and tourists mbt the community and bringa familiea togeth- er." We hope that Milton will continue 10 have a fal fair. We think it's a lot of fun! . .
