International Learning Styles Conference |
Eileen Richardson provided the photos and text here for a conference attended by several Collinsville teacher last week. The international conference was held for the first time in the United States this year and the Collinsville Education Foundation provided grants to allow the Collinsville folks to attend. The "Dr. Wilson" referenced below is our own Linda (Henshall), a CHS grad, who coordinated the conference held at NSU in Broken Arrow. -- Ted Wright |
The names of who attended are: Laurie Koopman, Amy West from Harold; Eileen Richardson, Lesa Lafferty and Dee Fuller from Wilson; Taylor Wheeler and Debbie Tomblinson from the Middle School and Stephanie Harp from ECC. We learned some
excellent information about how you can target students individual needs
on how they learn new material. Some very simple ways to arrange your
classroom, for example: lighting, and areas with soft chairs or space
on the floor for those students who like to learn in an informal setting.
Berryhill Schools were well represented and we got some great information
on how to incorporate this school-wide. Berryhill has never had problems
with test scores. They have had learning styles in place for over ten
years and their test scores have always been high. Let me know what other info you need to write a good story. I think public awareness is important in implementing something like this. Eileen Richardson (7/26/2011) |

These flowers next to City Hall seem to be surviving OK in the record heat this summer but many yards and farms are not fairing so well. I saw Louis Keith on the TV Channel 6 News last night (July 27th) reporting on the sad shape of the hay crop this year and the resulting sell off of cattle. Much of the United States is stuck in the same weather pattern this summer with 1936 and 1980 heat/drought records being challenged almost daily with 100+ temperatures. -- Ted |
