Heppner news United Methodist women Energy Education Day slated at HHS
Approximately 23 teachers, five from Morrow County and
18 from Umatilla County, met recently in Pendleton to share
their ideas on new ways of teaching Home Economics.
k This group is only one of fifteen from around the state who
meet five or six times a year to update their approaches in
teaching. Out of each of these groups, one is a Cadre
member. Liz Curtis from Heppner Junior High School is this
year's Morrow-Umatilla County Cadre member.
Other Home Ec. teachers participating in the group from
Morrow County are Joyce Baker, Linda Panter, Karen
Season, and Delia Lindsay.
According to Liz Curtis, Cadre means "a linking between
people in the field and the state department." The Home
Economics Cadre in this instance is with the Consumer
Homemaking Department.
As an example of what the Cadre group provides, Curtis
explained ' that two Junior High School teachers from
Pendleton visited her class this week to view the
Occupational Versatility and Homemaking program,
(O.V.H.).
The O.V.H. class is a fairly new concept which teaches
elementary students some of the aspects of being an adult in
today's society.
As a result of the program, Curtis and another member of
the Cadre group, Joyce Baker of Columbia Junior High in
Irrigon, have put together a workbook for teaching O.V.H.
According to Curtis, the book will be copyrighted and
printed by the Education Service District in Pendleton.
"None of this would have been possible if we hadn't met
through Cadre," said Curtis.
