Lucas, special ed ucation . director for Roseburg schools, said Monday. Lucaa took part la the Fuller ton Parent - Teacher Discussion Group Monday night at the school "We are not giving emphasis In more attention to educating; the ers," he said, "but are giving more attention to educating the average and ilnw pupils." He preferred to call these lead ers "gifted" children and added that, except what the individual classroom teacher can do, noth ing is being done for them. Lucas and other teachers attend ing the discussion agreed that if classes could be kept down to 20 pupils, teachers would have enough time for extra work with gifted children. But when classes reach 30 or more, the only answer Is to make supplementary reading available, Lucas said. i I Individual conferences with par ant ufniiM ha "tastlv annprtor" to the report card system, it was agreed by Lucas and two Fuller ton first grade teachers, Mrs. Ed na Matthews and Mrs. Bo.iita Wi koff. They pointed out that teach ers and parents could discuss more fully the problems of the children througn comerences. In rWmiino his work as special education director, Lucas stressed that the children be worxeo. wun ar "oYrentional" in that each has only one specific handicap but is normal in every oiner wuy. "Slow" Students Handled Many mentally slow students are attending the schools, Lucas said. They have an intelligence quotient usually ranging from 50 to 90, while the average is slightly more than 100. If the 10 is below 50, education is undertaken at the Fairview Home. The slow child in the pub lic schools may be retained in the first, second or third grades to expose bim to the fundamental subjects at a level where be'U be most able to grasp them, Lucas commented. Then he is pushed on through year after year in or- der not to De loo ia.- out ol uu age group. Lucas demonstrated the audio meter test for hearing and the Smellen eye chart and telli-bonoc-ular test for vision. He cited the case of a paralytic child who car ried on studies wun me am oi equipment that flashed reading material and pictures on the ceil ing. The special education director placed special emphasis on the tachistocope. terming it "the most helpful mechanical device for re medial reading." Next month the Fullerton school age discussion group will take up the physical education program. Woman Shoplifter Betrayed By Bulges KENNEWICK. Wash.
