"What is this thing called "Is it madeâ€"up Santa Claus Sitting, so cold, austere? Is it just a good excuse To stock up extra ‘cheer‘?

Mr. Turner of the Etobicoke Board of Eduâ€" cation is in charge of the newâ€" ly initiated programme for the gifted child which Etobicoke started this year and was, thereâ€" fore, most interested in his subâ€" ject. He was introduced by Mr. J. Albarda. Mr. Turner said that this exâ€" periment was very controverâ€" sial and he gave a very thorâ€" ough explanation of all its asâ€" pects with an objective attitude on his part towards the pros and cons.

ARMOUR T. IRWIN, 71 Cambourne Ave, Downsview "Park ‘ "So God â€"gave His Begotten e oooge m leca s moree mene en e on Quotient of all pupils in the schools was checked and apâ€" proximately 100 of those with the highest LQ.‘s were seelcted with an object of allowing these, the "brightest," to reach their potential by taking their schooling as a group, unhinderâ€" ed by the average, or below average who, presumably, set the pace and the standards in the ordinary school class. The small number selected from all the school children resulted from the high minimum I.Q. of about 135 for the group. The average I.. is between 90 and 110. All parents of the childrem selected were given the opporâ€" tunity of discussing the plan with the Board of Education and staff to weigh up fhe pros: and cons. The pros are fairly obvious but the cons are perâ€" haps not seen until a second glance is taken; for example, it might not be a good thing for a child to have his schooling with other children not residing in the same area as, you must remember, these children came from all the parts of Etobicoke After much discussion only ten parents preferred not to have their children participate in this experiment. This experiment is to go on for two years and involves chilâ€" dren up to Grade 6 only. It is being carried out with specially selected teachers at Wedgewood school in Etobicoke. Mr. Turâ€" ner was able to give several stories indicating the excepâ€" tional intelligence of some of these students emphasizing ‘such factors as retentive memories, good _ conversational â€" abilities, quickness _ at â€" comprehension, etc. Mr. Turner answered the many interested questions made by his audience and Mrs. Wilâ€" liams thanked Mr. Turner for giving the association a very clear idea of this experiment. This year, the school co:rtrl is to be given on two nights. It was a great success last year and not enough parents were able to see it on just the one evening. The morning Kindergarten, Miss Gibbon‘s; Mrs. Lightfoot‘s; Miss Casswell‘s, Mrs. Hall‘s and Mr. Paterson‘s grades will be performing on Thursday, Deâ€" cember 15 while the afterncon Kindergarten, Mr. Stock‘s, Mrs. Drew‘s, Mrs. King‘s, Mr. Bing= ham‘s, and Mr. Lillie‘s grades will have their concert on Friâ€" day, December 16.
