on Monday night, March 4 in
the O.P. Johnson Education B

Title I program. Mrs. Jacks
on told the history of this pro
gram and how it got started
in the schools, it began in
WW II when an officer <tts- I
covered that many boys in his
troop could not read. He found I
that by breaking the troop down I
into very small groups anrftee- I
drips them individually that the I
soldiers could learn to read- I
On comiqg back to the U.S.
after die war he asked hlm
selk why this would not work I
in teaching school. He tried
It, it worked, and so emerged
the Tutorial program.
Mr*. Jackson asked the ques
tion, "What to reading? to h

field of teaching. Words mean
nothing to a child unless they
convey the desired message.

each day. -16 minutes deems
a short amount of time but
it Is the length of time that
a teacher can hold the atten
tion of a child of that age.
The program is a positive,
individual approach. Every
thing right in the elass is em
phasized and praised, pything
wrong is not mention*! but is
corrected by other Methods.
Consequently. the. child feels
that he has accomplished som- .
ethlng. he feels that no one
is goidg-to criticize him, and
he needs praise to reassure
him. hAll of these children
came from many varied hack
grounds, and sometimes with
many problems, they need mu
ch encouragement. The child
in the Tutorial program learns
by actively "doing" from the
first day he comes into the
class.
The rules and regulations for
these classes are strict. Tu
torial aides must go through a
thorough training session and
must follow the program as
planned Children are treated
alike up to a certain point.
They are not told all of the
answers, they must try to find
solutions to their own problems.
In this positive program the
child only competes with him

After the talk was finished,
Mrs. Jackson Invited the aides
from the Tutorial program at
the Rose Hill-Magnolia School
to demonstrate to the Adviso
ry Board Members who were
present. Using the Board me
mbers as guinea pigs, the aides
showed them how the reading
is taught.
Miss Elizabeth Farlaw, a tea
cher who retired at the end of
school last year, stated, "lhave
