~~SDAY, OCTOBER 19, lg~W ~E CANADIMI STAT~5MAN, BOWMANVILTLE. ONTARIO PAC~ 'r~'wi~rn It Was annaunced in The States- man In Its issue of September 28 that the Board of Educatian has decided ta, continue the popular classes In Basic English and Citi- zenship for new Canadians resid- ing in the Bowmanville area. These classes are again being held under the capable and painstaklng direc- tion of mr. M. Slute of the Public School teachtng staff. O Our readers w111 be interested ta know that from the f irst pilot class started In Ontario in February 1946, the province-wide job of helping flewcomers ta become citizens has grawn ta where, in the 1949-50 term, some 15,000 persans studied Basic English and Citlzenship in 602 classes throughout Ontario. During these past four years about 29,000 of the some 50,000 aduit im- migrants in Ontario have taken one or more years of these classes. The work is done. where possible, at the community level, where the immigrants live. Community Pro- grammes Branch officiais feel this provides a wacm and personal touch that would be missing under a cen- tral contraI. As a result, most of the classes are operated by local school boards with the textbooks and teachers' reference kits supplied by Commun- ity Programmes Branch. The local Oboards receive provincial grants as for other night classes. Where a local board cannai hald classes, or where no board exists, the Branch wll operate them. The classes are based on aR two- year course with English taken t.he first year and citizenship the next. The three English textbooks are de- signed ta teach the elements of the language through the mast fre- quently used sentence patterns and ta teach Engllsh by means o! Eng- lish. TMis system, where the teach- ers need flot know a foreign an- guage and persans from different cauntries can corne tagether in one class, was developed by English Language Research Incorporated, Cambridge, Mass. By the end of the first year the newcomer's vocabulary includes about 1,000 words, and he has an idea of the most basic sentence structures. He is then able to con- tinue learning through hîs own ex- periences. The citizenship text, a M-page book called "Canada: Our Country" was prepared by the Community Programmes Branch o! the Ontario Department of Education. At the end of the two years-or whenever they feel they are able- the newcomers can write their ex- aminatian for the Provincial Certi- ficate of Proficiency. This certifi- cate may be accepted by the courts as proof of eduational qualifica- tions ta become a citizen. The success o! the classes, now entering their fifth year, is mea- suced by the high overaîl attend- ance of 78 percent last year that was made in spite of shiftwark in industry and wintec starms. The people concerned with the classes look at it this way. As attendance is vo]untary, the newcomers must feci they are getting somethineout of the classes or they wauld not bother coming. Tr.YadONE.
