"Insight Two" had two sessions, featuring a variety of speakers on topics, including communication, creative writing, education among and about people of other cultures, discipline and basic skills. Charles Lara, associate superintendent of Crystal Lake District 47, discussed how teachers could better communicate by understanding themselves. He identified four personality types. For example, ^'hypothesizers" are inclined to be logical and work well with models, Lapp said. Dr. Dale Jungst, associate professor of mathematical sciences at Northern Illinois University, also discussed models. They are important tools in teaching elementary math, Jungst said. "I have. vet to see an elementary textbook with a cube stuck in it," Jungst pointed out. Pictures simply do not get the message across. "Our number one goal should be to instruct children with physical models," Jungst said. It helps to drive home concepts, rather than skills. It doesn't matter if a child can multiply if he or she cannot apply that knowledge in life, Jungst said. Molly Norwood, director of developmental skills in Rolling Meadows District 15, offered some creative writing tips. For example, interest in book reports can be sparked by building book report cubes, she said. Make posters advertising the merits of a book, she said, adding teachers should have the student be a character in the story and write a letter to a friend describing the situation. Try different styles of poetry; experiment, she said. Exposure to social issues is important as well. "We don't have to look very far to interdependence (between countries)," Duane Nelson, an instructor in international studies at Elgin Community College, said. . "If you're only going to wear American things, you'll probably find yourself sitting here half-naked," he said. He encouraged educators to bring the world into the classroom. "Make sure the community and students know what kind of world we're Living in," Nelson said. In a lecture on multicultural education, Joe Frattaroli from Illinois State University cautioned teachers against what he sees as "a growing wave of anti- Asian sentiment." Frattaroli said it is important students understand how they and emigrants have changed as cultures interact. Hie program was sponsored by the Illinois State Board of Education, Regional Superintendent of Schools for McHenry County, McHenry County Curriculum Council and Marian Central Catholic High School. It was funded by federal grants. Johnsburg presents comedy GREAT BODIES FOR SALE f\ft trv *<*»<•' 1 t Abby Brewster (Kathy Wester) looks on.
