LOCAL BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT Mathnasium of South Aurora
Albert Einstein once said, “Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater.” Even the greatest mathematical minds reach points of frustration when it comes to making math make sense. That is exactly what instructors at Mathnasium strive to do, make math make sense. Whether a student is struggling to catch up or yearning to be pushed to greater challenges, Mathnasium provides customized curriculum to eliminate the frustration, increase student confidence and ignite a passion for learning. With the start of a new school year comes a new year of challenges for all students. Some parents may hear a familiar mantra at homework time, “I hate math.” Kids don’t hate math. Students that are struggling with math hate feeling frustrated and confused. Those that excel in math may not be able to delve as deeply into the subject as they’d like or have a desire to be challenged more. Mathnasium will meet each student where they are, bridging those gaps for those who are struggling and challenging those preparing for more advanced classes. Mathnasium’s unique system provides a strong mathematical foundation by identifying students’ current skill level and helping them propel forward by teaching them math in a way that makes sense to them. There is often a disconnect between students’ learning skills and curriculum they are expected to master. This is a concept Mathnasium Method creator Larry Martinek identified more than 40 years ago. A teacher himself and a father to a mathematically gifted son, he wanted to help students, both gifted and frustrated, to succeed. What formed was a system not based on memorization of facts and formulas, but an approach that builds a deeper mathematical understanding. Students with noticeable gaps in learning may seem
obvious candidates for help but just because a child is an A/B student doesn’t necessarily mean there are no gaps in understanding. Bridging those gaps and gaining that confidence is important for all students. Getting that help is simple. Students or parents can do a quick five question assessment online (whether they are struggling or advanced learners.) If Mathnasium seems like a good fit, an appointment to do an in-house, detailed assessment can be made, which allows instructors to customize a learning plan formulated on concepts needed to meet each child’s specific learning goals. Specially trained instructors then implement the plan; working with your child until they are able to master the material. Instructors want to be there when the learning happens, they don’t assign additional homework, and they provide an encouraging environment where your kids feel motivated and confident so they can learn. Homework help is also provided, helping students turn what was once a frustration into a welcome challenge they can conquer with confidence. For older students, they also offer ACT/SAT math prep, helping students see impressive improvements in math scores. Watching your child’s confidence blossom in math will undoubtedly trickle over into all areas of their academics. What better gift to give them as they tackle the new school year than the ability to believe in their own abilities? Go online, take the five question survey or just give them a call – the only thing your child stands to lose is frustration, and that is a huge gain! www.mathnasium.com/aurora 4510 S.

EVOLUTION
of a
STUDENT
Tips for Success & Survival at Every Stage of School When you need advice on how to best take care of yourself, you ask your doctor. If you needed help remodeling your home, you would be served well by having an architect draw up plans and an engineer ensuring everything has a strong foundation. With the school year starting, who better to help you build a strong foundation for your student than the people who are going to be with them, everyday, for the next nine months? Take our advice and listen to advice from teachers – you might be surprised at how simple it can be to help your student have a great year, whether they are beginning the trek as a kindergartner or coming to the finish line as a senior in high school.
Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd
3rd, 4th and 5th
Middle School
It may seem simple, but the simplest things are sometimes the most important. Now that your little one is a “Big Kid” they need to start doing big kid things! Teachers of little ones suggest parents help by making sure kiddos:
Again, covering the basics is important. It helps to:
Middle school is an important time in a student’s career. It’s an essential transition that allows students to create good study and time management habits, add to background knowledge and understanding, and continue to evolve and grow socially. Students start to have some choices about classes they take and begin to explore their interests. They also continue to learn about themselves and how they best learn and interact with peers and teachers. This growth will go a long way to prepare them for high school and beyond, as they continue to master these skills. This is also an ideal time for parents to practice a gradual release of responsibility to their students. Students and parents can work together to review upcoming assignments, current assignments, and grades. As students move through middle school, parents should encourage students to take the lead and become independent in preparation for high school. Stay involved. Never stop asking about their day, their struggles, their successes, and how they are working towards their goals. It’s the everyday conversations and time that make the most enduring impact for kids.
Know their full name address and mom/dad’s phone number. W Can write their name with a capital beginning and rest lowercase. W Can tie their shoes, or wear Velcro until they are able! W Can open their own lunch and snack. W Can put on and zip/snap their own jackets and backpacks. W
“For parents with children entering elementary, it may be hard to let your little one do more for themselves, but by giving them some control over some things it will allow them to learn/fail/succeed in a safe environment (home/ classroom.) Being in charge of their learning is extremely important and that should be the end goal. Each year students should take on another piece of control in their learning. In today’s world, it is becoming increasingly important for students to advocate for themselves (mainly due to technology interaction with peers) and they should learn to advocate both for their learning and in social situations. A true gem in my book is setting a goal, for any age, to start the year. This can be started as early as kindergarten. If a child is struggling with behavior, setting a goal to have positive days at school can have great outcomes in the future.” – 2nd grade teacher “Try your best. Work hard. Pay attention to your teacher. Kindergarten is so much fun. You get to learn, but you get to learn in a fun way.” – 2nd grade student
Make sure students have their multiplication and division facts memorized as they head into higher level math and problem solving. It makes a SIGNIFICANT difference! W Foster a genuine love of reading. Encourage (don’t force) kids to read chapter books (no matter how short or silly) like CRAZY! Taking an interest in what your child is reading; take them to the library or book store, read chapter books aloud to/with your kids, and model a love of reading as an adult. The more kids read, and the more they want to read, the better readers they will become. W
“My best advice for parents is to, 1. Let go a little. A fourth grader has never died (that I know of ) from forgetting a homework assignment or a lunchbox. Sure that pang in their hearts when they realize they forgot something is a shocker, but if kids are constantly saved from making even the tiniest of mistakes, they will grow up thinking they are no good unless they’re perfect. Talk about a life sentence. 2. Fourth grade is like crossing over from “little kid” to “big kid.” Teachers slowly push kids to do more themselves and take responsibility for their own learning. It’s the switch from “learning to read” to “reading to learn.” Encourage your child to think for himself, ask questions, and seek answers.” – 4th grade teacher
“Don’t be afraid to ask questions, even if you feel like you’re the only one who doesn’t understand. If you need to clarify something or don’t understand; ask the question. It saves a lot of frustration and confusion. If you are too nervous to ask in class, hang back a few minutes after class to talk to the teacher, they’d rather you understand than leave not knowing what to do.” – 9th grader
“Be confident, you might mess up, but you can learn from your mistakes.” – 4th grader
High School Organizational skills are key. Use an online calendar, an app, or a planner (like the ones used all through elementary and middle school) to stay organized and on top of deadlines. Don’t wait until the last minute to complete assignments. High school students are often busy with sports, clubs, jobs and other things, so finding a system that works and utilizing time management is imperative and sets you up for success after graduation. Be accountable for your work and advocate for yourself. In college or the workforce, you will be expected to, so start now. It’s important for parents to stay involved, but it’s critical that students take the lead. “Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Go in and talk to your teachers, get the answers you need to understand. Everyone will tell you this, and it’s true, high school really does fly by, so enjoy each year, every assembly, sporting event, dance other special activities.” – 12th grader

So You Have a Senior… Senior year is a tremendous milestone for students, whether they are planning on continuing their education in college, entering the military, perhaps taking a gap year or going straight into the workforce. Senior year is filled with numerous celebrations, but there are also numerous deadlines. If you have a senior, be sure to keep track of these deadlines so your student is not too far behind the 8-ball during what should be one of the most exciting years of their life.
Senior Year Checklist x If you haven’t already, book senior photos. They are usually due in the first semester, so having them done before school starts or soon after the start of the year is a good idea. x If your senior doesn’t already have an idea of the colleges they want to apply to, start looking as soon as possible. Take the opportunity to visit and tour schools. Chances are multiple colleges will be appealing, so the sooner they start looking, the sooner they’ll be able to research their choices and narrowing down the list for applications.
Advice to Seniors, from a College Freshman W Senior Year IS NOT the easiest year, if anything, you should push harder senior year to finish out strong.
x College applications open as early as September, so the sooner they’ve selected which colleges they want to apply to the better!
W College applications all require transcripts which include senior year, first semester grades, and colleges also require a final transcript to be sent at the end of the year. Senior year grades are taken into serious consideration, so make sure to stay on top of school senior year!
x Have your senior start looking for scholarships as soon as school year starts. It is never too early to start applying. Applying for scholarships can continue throughout senior year and even into post-senior year summer.
W Grades are important, however, do make sure to enjoy your senior year…. there are lots of fun opportunities to take a part in. Don’t miss out on things like senior sunrise/sunset, senior assemblies, etc. These special events will make it a lot of fun finishing out your last year of high school!
x Make sure to have your senior check class credit requirements as soon as school starts; they should already be set as they’ve have already chosen classes, but it doesn’t hurt to double check – better safe than sorry!
W Take advantage of the resources available to you. My most helpful resource was my high school counselor. If I had questions or needed help with credits, community service hours, college/scholarship applications, she was happy to help. If you have questions on college/scholarship essays, your English teacher is also a great resource.
x Many schools require at least 20 hours of community service as a graduation requirement. At the beginning of the year, seniors should check how many hours they’ve completed. Ideally, they should try to complete their hours first semester so they can focus on college applications and other senior requirements for the remainder of the year. x That halfway through point is also a good time to check on their grades; graduation eligibility hinges on grades and failing grades would prohibit them from graduating with the rest of their class.

THEBOOKENDS
with Pam & Becky
The-One-in-a-Million Boy By Monica Wood
Every Saturday morning 104 year old Ona has a Boy Scout volunteer to help with light yard work around her home. She is usually unhappy with their “shortcutting” ways and refuses to let the volunteer return for the next Saturday. However, she likes the last boy that is sent to help. He was different than the others with his constant counting, list making and passion for world records. One Saturday the boy doesn’t come but his father, Quinn arrives the following week to finish the last seven Saturdays of his son’s commitment to Ona. What Quinn didn’t realize is the deep friendship that developed between this woman and his son, and their plan to make Ona the world record holder of the Oldest Licensed Driver. BECKY This story has some interesting characters. I am not sure
which one was my favorite. We have feisty Ona who has an interesting past, an eleven year old boy that is wise beyond his years, Quinn who hardly knows his unique young son and his twiceex-wife Belle. Throughout the book we only know the child as the boy. Was that frustrating to you or did it fall into place naturally?
PAM You know what is crazy? I didn’t realize that until you asked the question! I would love to ask the author the purpose of omitting the name (even though I did not even notice…). I wonder what that says about me as a reader! I agree that it was hard to choose a favorite character. The author did an amazing job of allowing us to see different sides of each character, making it easy to feel the changing dynamics throughout the story. The boy is interviewing Ona for a school project and records answers to questions he poses. He refuses to talk on the tape, but the interviews come to life as we can infer his questions and comments based on her answers. This was my favorite part of the book, as it allowed me to feel their relationship and how they brought out the best in each other. Did you feel the same about their relationship and how the author shared it with readers? BECKY I loved these two unlikely friends and their connection.
The author did a great job slowly creating a cast of individuals that alone are good but together... make something special. There are multiple layers to the story and the boy’s recording of Ona’s life story felt realistic. As I read, I could hear the recorder click on and the boys muffled presence in the background. As wonderful as the writing was there, I didn’t feel a connection with the mother. Her story is smaller than the rest so maybe that was the reason. Did you feel like she had a large enough presence in the story?
PAM I also felt that this character was not as developed and did not feel connected to her. There were so many sides to the boy’s mother, but they didn’t add up to a character I could understand. She suffers a great loss and I felt very sad for her, but didn’t understand her abrupt switches between childlike and authoritarian behaviors. Perhaps, it was also because deep down I liked the boy’s father and wanted her to help him feel connected and them to come together in this time of sadness. Their relationship had been rocky from the beginning, although he always loved her. Did you also hope they could help each other? 11
AUGUST 2017 search south aurora magazine
BECKY I usually defend the mother in a story but in this book I too was a fan of the father. I imagined a different ending to the story in regard to their relationship but am completely satisfied with the path the author chose. I think that they did help each other in an unusual way. It may not have been presented in a pretty box with a bow but their journey did resolve some emotions that were in limbo. One of the reasons that I like this book so much is that the characters were broken and didn’t fit into a typical mold. If you liked the novel, A Man Called Ove then you would like this story as well. Both books touch on the loneliness of seniors citizens. A boy sharing a few hours, once a week brought great joy to Ona. After reading this book did you look at the seniors in your life differently?
PAM This story certainly shares a perspective that is often overlooked. Ona is very alone after her dear friend passes. She spends days by herself, except for some interaction with volunteers as she receives assistance from the community. We all get so busy with our daily lives, that it is easy to forget people in this situation. The boy filled this empty spot for Ona. As she answers the boy’s interview questions, Ona is given the opportunity to reflect on her past and people in her life. She struggles with seeing loved ones grow old and pass on. Do you feel that she struggled with this because she didn’t see herself in this light? BECKY Absolutely, she was still active and as independent as
she could be with her physical limits. It is clearly difficult when piers are passing away. It not only creates a loneliness but a realization that time is nearing its end. A dear lady that I know in her 90’s told me that an ‘old guy’ was moving into her senior living center. I believe that her and Ona share a similar opinion that others are getting weak and older but they are feeling young and capable. I would imagine that this positive attitude is a healthier choice but the realization that their circle of friends are diminishing is real. The author did a beautiful job creating this story and I think a book club would have some interesting topics to discuss. It’s time to say goodby to The-One-In-A-Million Boy and move to your book pick for September. Please tell us what we will discuss next month.
PAM Next month, we will discuss Lisa See’s novel, The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane. We will learn about the Akha, a Chinese ethnic minority, and the art of producing a special type of tea, while we follow the life of Li-yan.

PARKER BREWFEST Don’t Miss the 2nd Annual
Parker Brewfest is back and better than ever! The 2nd Annual Parker Brewfest, presented by the Cherry Creek Valley Rotary Club of Parker, is changing things up a bit to make the Brewfest bigger, better and brew-ier! If you attended last year’s Brewfest, you’ll notice this year’s format will be slightly different. Instead of two sessions, this year there will be one, continuous four hour event. VIP ticket holder and sponsors will be admitted at 1pm, while general admission ticket holders can get in on the fun starting at 2pm. The event will run until 5pm on Saturday, August 19th, rain or shine. VIP tickets are expected to sell out, so if you haven’t already purchased yours, get them before they are gone! Go to ParkerBrewfest.com for tickets and apparel.
O’Brien Park will play host to the event and in order to accommodate the one session, the entire area of the event has been increased by 50%. The gazebo will serve as the stage for local favorite “The Dollhouse Thieves,” who will be entertaining festival goers for the duration of the event. To accommodate brewfest fans, the number of tents, tables and chairs will be doubled and to keep the fun going, corn hole games will be back, along with a couple other fun things to do (without spilling your beer!) Additionally, organizers have doubled the capacity of the registra-

tion section to expedite entry for guests who have purchased their tickets in advance. If you enjoyed the 22 brewers on hand last year, you’ll be even more impressed with the Cidery and nearly 40 local brewers who will be on hand at this year’s Brewfest.
