Rube Goldberg revisited

C-EL students learn through creative thinking and design

[MAY 11, 2001]  Seventh graders in Doug Rader’s science class at Chester-East Lincoln School have been studying simple machines, energy and the development of technology. Their culminating project is to design and manufacture a Rube Goldberg machine. This is a machine designed to do a simple task like put bread in the toaster or toothpaste on a toothbrush.

Rube Goldberg was a cartoonist who designed weekly inventions which were run in comic strips in newspapers across the United States.

 

This science unit is designed to be unique, develop independence and create a setting where students are required to use higher-level thinking skills. The unit deals with two main themes: science and technology. Throughout the year students have gained an understanding of what each theme involves as well as the interrelationship that exists between the two. This activity helps to give historical perspective and to make the contemporary applications as practical as possible.

Part of this study is an interdisciplinary study in which Beth Steffens’ English classes research and write out descriptions of different inventions and describe their social and economic impact on society.

This year’s projects included several unique ways to put out a candle. One student, Alia Moon, used a puff of air created by dropping a weight onto a closed Cool Whip container with a pinhole in the bottom. Andrew Fulton dropped baking soda into vinegar to create carbon dioxide, which then put out the candle.

The students at CEL will continue to develop their research skills through this and other special programs.

Growing earth-conscious youth

Fifth-graders make posters, third-graders get trees

[MAY 3, 2001]  Each winter Logan County Soil and Water Conservation District conducts a poster contest for all the fifth-graders in the county. This year's conservation theme for the posters was "Lines on the Land." Events included a classroom presentation along with a video.

Winners of the poster contest were Hanna Laramee, first place, $20; Pat Gleason and Kaitlyn Kutz, tied for second place, $10 each; and Christina Stoll, third place, $5.


[First- and second-place winners from Elkhart sit with their teacher, Mrs. Ann Olson. From left to right are Hanna Laramee, Pat Gleason and Kaitlyn Kutz.]


[The third-place winner, Christina Stoll, is from Zion Lutheran School in Mount Pulaski. She is pictured here with her teacher, Mrs. Jean Davis.]

Winners of honorable mention in the contest included Shekinah Pelc from New Wine School, Jarod Parrott from Elkhart Grade School, Jamie Curry from Elkhart Grade School and Dustin Aylesworth from Zion Lutheran School in Mount Pulaski.

ABCs and anger control

Kindergarteners learn from policeman

[APRIL 27, 2001]  Chester-East Lincoln and the Lincoln Police Department are beginning violence prevention instruction as early as possible: kindergarten. And as Officer Montcalm and kindergarten teachers Mrs. Foran and Mrs. Warnisher have learned, the message is sinking in.

When Officer Montcalm arrived the students shared with him how the techniques that he had taught them in earlier sessions were working. They shared specifically how they used his tips to control their anger during the week. A couple of kindergarteners said they used the breathing technique. Others tried talking through disputes or going to an adult.

The violence prevention curriculum focuses on three things: cooperation, understanding it is OK to disagree, and a "Healthy and Positive People Alphabet."

In the first class session, the students learned two BIG words, which they were able to recall even in the third lesson: cooperation and disagreements. The class defined cooperation as "working together." The students also remembered that when it comes to disagreements, it is OK to disagree, because everybody is different.

During the second session, the students worked through an activity book that illustrated ways to control anger. In addition to the breathing technique and discussing problems, students also learned to yell into a pillow or count to 10 slowly.

After a short review of the last two classes, Officer Montcalm took the students through the Healthy and Positive People Alphabet. The class met trusted adults such as an Ambulance driver, Doctor, Firefighter, McGruff, Neighbors, Police officer and Sheriff. They reviewed dangerous habits to avoid, such as Cigarettes and Guns, and good habits to practice: Buckle-up, Exercise, Helmets, Jump rope, Kites, Orange juice, Reading, Vegetables, Washing hands and Zipping coats.

[Students listed the messages they learned in the two songs.]

The two kindergarten classes also listened to two songs. The first was about playing it safe and taking a bite out of crime. It instructed the students to look left, right and left before crossing the street, learn their address and phone numbers, and never let strangers know that they are home alone. The second song, "Stop the Violence," suggested ways students can help reduce violence.

Before leaving, each student received a McGruff sheriff’s badge-sticker. After next week’s session, each student will be awarded a certificate for the completion of the violence prevention program for kindergarteners.

Educators and officers alike hope that the students will remember and use the simple tips and easy habits they learned in kindergarten to reduce the level of violence around them.

LCHS Showcase of Talents

[APRIL 7, 2001]  Talent: Think of the word, apply it to Lincoln Community High School, and whom do you think of? Our recently honored basketball star Greg Alexander? Sports is not the only place you’ll find all-stars. How about Kyle Sitton? Haven’t heard of him? Well, the talents of Sitton and many other LCHS students were on display Thursday evening at the second annual LCHS Showcase of Talents. From 6:30 to 8:30, any and all could walk the halls of LCHS and admire the many skills of our next generation.

[Click here to see photos from the LCHS Showcase of Talents]

From cookies in Ms. Silano’s Culinary Arts room to entertainment centers outside of Mr. Spear’s woodworking shop, the many and varied skills could be seen, felt, heard and tasted (yum)! For the record, Sitton is a junior in Mr. Parrott’s welding class. He made the 7-foot-tall "welding man" on display in the gym foyer.

Mr. Jim Moore, the electronics teacher, demonstrated an electronic car, built by his students, that would change direction whenever it sensed an object in front of it. In Mr. Moore’s computer classes the students learn how to assemble a computer from "parts" to "power on!"

In Ms. Welsh’s advanced biology class, students had constructed displays of cell and city models, giving insights for comparisons between the real and the micro worlds.

Some displays taught you things without you realizing it. The students from the math classes were playing miniature golf on a course they constructed themselves. The lesson? No, not how to subtract strokes from your score, but a hidden lesson in geometric angles.

Ms. Chamberlain’s display for the Survey of Family and Consumer Science class concentrated on the importance of milk. Students made milkshakes for consumption. They also took donations for Child Abuse Awareness Month, with proceeds going to DCFS. This class, formerly known as home ec, is doing a good job preparing its students for the "real world" after graduation.

In Mr. Parrott’s welding class, students learn basic and advanced welding techniques, such as MIG and TIG welding. Plaques for top honors, awarded from competitions over the past six years, are proudly displayed in the woodworking shop.

 

[to top of second column in this article]

His woodworking students learn the basics about using the tools and safety, at the beginning of the school year, and work throughout the year on various projects. The large desk, built by Dani Moser, on display outside of the woodworking shop, was an example of the fine craftsmanship of Mr. Spear’s students.

Ms. Silano’s culinary class was, probably, the most popular. The delicious food made by her students was eagerly gobbled up by parents and students alike.

Upstairs, in the band room, a new school anthem composed by students Jason Yarcho and Kyle Pepperell could be seen and heard.

Not on display at LCHS, but a project that can be seen in the Mayfair subdivision, is a 1½ story house in the midst of construction by students involved with the Lincoln Land Technical Education Center (LTEC). Under the guidance and tutelage of Bill Marquardt, area students bus out to the building site daily. They learn basic construction skills and put those skills to work. After completion, the house will be sold to the highest bidder. Any profits go toward the house to be built by next year’s LTEC students. This is the 35th year for building houses by LCHS students.

These projects, and many more that were on display, were ample proof of the abundant talents of the kids attending LCHS. With the instruction and guidance of the dedicated teachers of LCHS nurturing this talent, our next generation appears to be in good hands.
