The Relationship of listening To learning
WR believe that it i s extremely important for t~e child to learn to listen attentively and to fo l low simple directions There is mu ch research to support the theory that one of the most fi rm foundations upon whi ch to rui ld J8coTning potential is t o be a good lis shyterer
fTanr of Lhp direc tions in school are oral ani hew 11 the student listens will be a big L) Ct0Y in school SUCCGSS For this reason we have ini tlatfd 3 fnrmal lis ten ing program in frades 1-3 For some time kindergarten has been inloJved in the Rosner Program Along wi Ln dev nJopmen t of manipula ti ve skills lis shytening deve lopmen t is an integral part of this prcyram So it is our hope that we will see improvemRnt in this vital area of our curri shycuJum de i11 be moni torirg this skill as 1e evalucte the re8nl ts of our standardized testing lJrogram--listening being one of the areas tested
How w~ll the student l istens will be a big factor in school success We suggest that
you the parent provide a good model by l is shytening to himher carefully answerin~ quesshytions and guidine himher in exploration to seek out answers by seejng relationships beshytween a new learning situation and a familiar one The development of good listening skills does not just happen it has to be taught and learned to ensure t hat the student is able to reach their learning potential This is an area where home and school can work together for the good of the child
What Is Love
What is love--just an expression An overworked word or secret confession Love first came from God it was given to you Its yours to keep but be careful what you do
You can mold it and shape it Give it away bit by bit Or keep it hid under a lock and key Hide it so nc one will be able to see
I think we should share love every day Not only in deeds but everything we say A gift is to be used not to get stale Give unto others do not let it fail
What a beautiful place this would be If love was opened for all to see Love is found deep in the heart Let it come out and all do their part
Lets search for the real meaning of love Its a true gift for us from our Father above
