The advantage of the pro- gram is that it gives professional staff members, kindergarten through 12th grade, the opportu- nity to sit with a peer and go over the program such as planning a lesson. “The kindergarten teacher must use the same techniques as the senior high teacher,” Howanitz explained. “It's not the same sub- jectbut itis the same technique. At the end of the four-day course, the teachers come back for a one-day maintenance and review of essen- ‘tial elements. Dallas is one of the few schools having the program. Pittston Area has one and other areas are considering the program.” The program does cost money but the Dallas district has cut corners wherever possible. How- anitz, who has tenure, would be paid for teaching in a classroom, if he were not doing staff develop- ment. The other expense is a sub- stitute for those teachers who take the four-day course. Phase II, classroom manage- ment, is next. This will be a two- day workshop which will include environment, management of cur- riculum, classroom arrangement, and cooperative groups working together. The goal of the entire EXCEEDS project is to enable teachers to take back ideas and use them. The ultimate goal is better learning for students and continuous self-re- newal for educators. So far, teachers are enthusias- tic aboutf EXCEEDS, Howanitz says. Comments from a few have included “It was packed with us- able information”; “Wonderful, positive information!”; “This work- shop has allowed me to take a closer look at my teaching and classroom mangement.” Howanitz opinion of the classes- "My pride and enthusiasm for my profession have been rejuvenated. I now look forward to teaching!” dg td ate i CRATE || THE HOME BUILDING SEMINAR H O 3 DAY M I's A Says FHOSHLD ATR worl who own land and are planning to PA N CA K 3 H 0 J S a | S 0 to [4 0 % O F F SEMINAR CONTENTS, Financing, Construction and Dat PEA On Fall & Wi nter Fas h ons selecting your new home, but afraid to ask! | 7 (formerly the Count S Al Departm ents Drow Fit pe Ror Fit & Som and Zonin Offiogs Daly pa ety es Causa) Rt Er A te _| GRAND OPENING TODAY Lec Fa Sweet Valley Hos Come Jo I n Us For Some _ .
