VALLEY VIEW SCHOOL DISTRICT

1+2=Common Core School officials considers new math curriculum resource for sake of consistency

By Laura Katauskas Bugle Staff @BugleNewspapers sweditor@buglenewspapers.com

In an effort to maintain consistency in teaching math across grade levels, the Valley View School District is considering adopting a new curriculum resource for its middle school classes.

According to a recent report, the district is reviewing Illustrative Mathematics, which was built with focus, coherence, and rigor at the forefront---the three shifts that the Common Core Standards for mathematics requires. This curriculum was co-written by one of the three lead writers of the Common Core standards, is published by a nonprofit open education organization and comes free under a license for the purpose of providing all students an opportunity to engage with a rigorous curriculum.

“This is one of the few curriculums that are truly common core-based,” said a member of the district-wide math committee who reviewed several curriculums.

“Common Core is a way of learning and this curriculum provides

task awareness and its lessons are about doing learning and discovery.”

The school district reports that for the past six years, middle school math committees have been refining curriculum and assessments to best meet students’ needs, however student outcomes show that though there is growth, it was not consistent over the three grade levels.

The report states that current resources do not provide consistency across all grade levels. “The way our current curriculum is enacted, each concept is taught in isolation, resulting in little flow or connection of ideas across the year. Illustrative Mathematics supports connection of ideas in several ways including embedded review and foreshadowing of content from the next unit,” the report indicates.

The curriculum also incorporates advanced supports for English language learners and students with disabilities. The district believes that consistent lesson structures, development of ideas from concrete to abstract, and suggestions for progression from individual to pair or small group discussion before discussing with the whole class, are design elements within Illustrative Mathematics that support learning in the diverse classrooms in Valley View.

Professional development is key for teachers to support student engagement as is a resource that

COMMUNITY

Artwork from local students wanted for “Celebrate Illinois” contest State Rep. John Connor, DLockport, is encouraging local students to participate in his “Celebrate Illinois” Art Contest in honor of the state’s bicentennial celebration.

Connor’s art contest is open to all K-12 students living or attending school in the 85th District, which includes parts of Bolingbrook, Lockport, Romeoville and Woodridge. Winners will be recognized in the K-

6th grade age group and 7-12th grade age group. Artwork following the “Celebrate Illinois!” theme can be submitted in any medium and must be an original piece of work signed by the artist. The deadline to submit artwork is April 20. Submissions must include the student’s name, phone number, address and school name. Art may be mailed or delivered to Connor’s office at 209 W. Romeo Rd., Romeoville, IL 60446. Winners in each age group will have their artwork displayed in Connor’s Springfield and Romeoville offices. Runners up will receive certificates of congratulations from the Illinois House of Representatives. Winners will be announced on May 4.

can be easily shared with families . There are materials in Illustrative Mathematics that would support this including instructional routines and opportunities for students to gain free online access for each unit.

“Instructional routines emphasize a specific goal and gets students to connect that to what they are are learning; what is really cool is that it gets students to communicate with language routines that are more clear and concise.

It allows students to be better able to explain what it means and also helps teachers be able to evaluate what they know and what they do on a real-world basis,” said another committee member.

EdReports, a non-profit organization that reviews curricula for alignment to standards and overall quality, recently released their assessment of Illustrative Mathematics as the highest-ever score given to any math curriculum, stating, “The instructional materials show strengths by being well designed and taking into account effective lesson structure and pacing, supporting teacher learning and understanding of the Standards, offering teachers resources and tools to collect ongoing data about student progress on the Standards, and supporting teachers in differentiating instruction for diverse learners within and across grades.”

GUEST COLUMN

Daley family legacy runs deep in Illinois, Chicago

BY JOHN CARPENTER CHICAGO SUN-TIMES About 20 years before a certain territory along the eastern banks of the upper Mississippi became a state, a man named Maurice Daly tied his ass and cart to a fence in the little Irish town of Dungarvan and set off for America. He added an “e” to his last name along the way — and the die was cast for the most powerful political brand in Illinois’ 200-year history.

The Daleys of Chicago ran the state’s largest city for more than 40 years, watching from the fifth floor of City Hall as the city grew from a thriving but unpolished Midwest railroad hub to a sprawling global metropolis.

Whether it’s the skyscrapers that Richard J. Daley so dearly loved, or the wrought-iron fences and European-style greenery pushed by his son, the legacy of the city’s two longest-serving mayors is impossible to avoid.

There are also things not seen, of course. Like Meigs Field, the quirky lakefront airport that the younger Daley brazenly — and illegally — bulldozed in the middle of the night in 2003. And then there’s a trail of Daley pals either shamed or jailed for various corruption schemes, part of a long-tolerated, wink-and-nod “Chicago way” of doing city business.

The elder Mayor Daley struggled to reconcile his neighborhood tribalism with the growing civil rights movement and anti-war protests. And his son watched grand plans for his city spiral

into sweetheart deals and crippling budget deficits. But the Daley Machine also saw Chicago’s fortunes grow while other Rust Belt cities declined. And they helped elect two Democratic presidents while wielding the kind of statewide clout in Springfield that a small army of Machine-bred representatives and senators can make possible.

Richard J. Daley, great-grandson of Maurice, was born in the city’s Bridgeport neighborhood in 1902, not far from where he lived when he died 74 years later. He rose through the ranks of Democratic politics by building a reputation as both an old-school ward heeler and nimble numbers cruncher. Lacking the oratorical flourish of so many politicians of the day, he prided himself on getting things done.

“Good government is good politics,” he liked to say. And he correctly surmised that few would mind if city payrolls were stocked with Daley Machine foot soldiers, so long as the trash got collected and the streets got plowed.

When he arrived at his desk in City Hall every morning, he was greeted with a list of the names of new city workers, along with their political sponsors. His ride home in the evening often took a wandering path, stopping at various wakes and retirement parties, each visit cementing that particular family’s multigenerational allegiance to the Democratic Party.

While the husband was running the city, his beloved wife, Sis, was raising a growing brood of seven children. Little Richie, the first-born son, came along in 1942. Then came Michael, a prominent lawyer and the only son who stayed away from politics (unless, ahem, you count helping clients win city zoning cases political). Then there was John, a former state senator and state representative

who is still a Cook County Commissioner. He is also the 11th Ward Democratic Committeeman, a job that has been in the Daley family since the 1940s.

William Daley, the youngest son, is the only one to have officially stepped onto the national political stage, serving as both U.S. commerce secretary under President Bill Clinton, and White House chief of staff under President Barack Obama. In 2013, Daley briefly ran for Illinois governor, only to drop out of the race a few months after entering it, citing personal reasons. But it was Richard M. Daley who made the family name synonymous with big city clout, eclipsing even his father’s run on the fifth floor. Even as business-hub suburbs like Naperville and Schaumburg sprouted gleaming corporate headquarters, Daley presided over continued growth downtown. And Millennium Park, his crown jewel, remains a source of civic pride, perhaps allowing the memory of his failed Olympic bid to fade.

His administration also was marked by a series of scandals, including the “Hired Truck” scandal, in which the city government leased hundreds of privately owned dump trucks that did little or no work, wasting $40 million a year. SunTimes reports about the program fueled a swift-moving federal investigation that led to the indictments of 49 people on public corruption-related charges. All were convicted, except for one individual who died after being charged.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Thank you for the interesting article in the March 15, 2018 Bolingbrook Bugle regarding the solar power installation at Magid Glove & Safety Manufacturing Co. in Romeoville.

These types of articles are very interesting to me and provide recognition to local firms that are attempting to do their part in reducing CO2 emissions. As the article points out, Magid will be installing over 10,500 solar panels on their roof. When complete, the project will eliminate over 2,000,000 tons per year of CO2 emissions from fossil fuel sources.

I also want to applaud Magid for implementing a project

that will result in major reductions in pollution that contribute to climate change. Hopefully, other firms and organizations will follow the lead of Magid and initiate renewable energy projects. As a member of the Greater Naperville Citizens Climate Lobby, we encourage our entire community to take an active interest and support programs that will reduce fossil fuel consumption and the resulting CO2 emissions.

PREP SHOOTOUT NORTH TEAM SETS GIRLS’ SCORING MARK

BY RANDY WHALEN For the Bugle www.buglenewspapers.com

As the only senior starter for the Benet Academy girl basketball team, Tsimba Malonga knew she was capable of scoring.

But after suffering a hyperextended knee and missing a few weeks in the middle of the season, she didn’t always get that opportunity.

So playing in her final high school game, the University of Denver recruit showed what she is capable of. Malonga poured in all 21 of her points in the second half to easily help her North squad double up the South team 88-44 in the Voyager Media Girls Basketball All-Star Shootout, on Sunday, March 18 at the University of St. Francis in Joliet.

This was the ninth year of the girls game. Malonga is the sec-

ond Benet player to win the MVP award. Emily Eschoo won it in 2015.

“In the first half of the game, I wanted to get a feel for it,” Malonga said, “Then when I did, my shot was just falling and I just kept shooting. It was just a lot of fun wearing my Benet jersey one more time.”

The 21 points were tied with Plainfield Central’s Hennessey Handy (‘16) for the second most in the girls all-star game.

Plainfield East’s Gabby Williams (‘13) holds the record with 24 points.

When Malonga was notified in the final minutes that she was close to the record, she did what many of the great players do. She passed to another player.

As the game went, it hardly SEE GIRLS PAGE 9

South nips North All-Stars in close contest

BY RANDY WHALEN For the Bugle www.buglenewspapers.com

The purpose of an all-star game is to have fun.

There was no doubt that the players on the court during the Voyager Media Boys Basketball AllStar Shootout, on Sunday, March 18 at the University of St. Francis in Joliet, had fun. But in the end the South squad had a little more fun.

That’s because they rallied to win.

Led by a game-high 25 points from MVP Ryan Saunders from Joliet Central, the South rallied in the second half to come away with

a 120-116 victory in the 10th annual event with showcases some of the areas seniors. It was the sixth straight season that the game was held at USF and this was certainly one of the most entertaining.

While not quite as high scoring as the previous seasons 134-122 North win, the game went down to the final minute before the South came away with the win.

“I was not expecting it,” Saunders said of winning the MVP. “We were just out there having fun and it was an exciting game.”

He’s uncommitted to college at this time, but after losing 94-91 in double overtime to Bolingbrook in

the Romeoville Sectional semifinal, he and his two teammates certainly liked being in the All-Star game.

His 25 points was the fourth highest individual total for a guy in the All-Star game. Ryan Crow from Plainfield North holds the record with 42 points in 2009. Saunders Steelmen teammates chipped in some too as Cameron Blackmon (7 points) and Don Joachim (6 points) had some key points.

But no one was more key than Saunders. The North led 103-96 when Eddie Creal had an alley-opp slam, one of a few in the game for the Romeoville star, with 7:26 to play.

Paging Dr. Saunders.

The South then went on a 13-2 burst, with Saunders scoring 11 of those points. He capped it off with eight straight points, including a rebound bucket with 3:46 to play for a 109-105 lead.

The North took one last lead at 111-110 on a layup by Romeoville’s Kahlil Blakney with 1:59 left. But Blackmon got a layup and Plainfield North’s Brady Miller mashed a slam for a 114-11 lead.

Bolingbrook’s Kaleb Thornton tied it at 114-114 on a 3-pointer. But with just over a minute remaining Joliet West’s Michael Smith hit a free throw and Plainfield Central’s Matthews Morganfield (9 points) followed that with a pair of free throws to put the South ahead for good at 117-114.

After a North miss, Miller got the clincher and capped his basketball career in grand fashion. He grabbed a rebound about 6-feet from the basket, but dribbled back out 15-feet to the left corner.

From there he let the shot fly and SEE BOYS PAGE 10

GIRLS FROM PAGE 7 mattered as the North led 28-13 at halftime and then scored 60 second half points to easily break the girls record for most points in a game. The previous mark was 81 points by Team Taylor - under a different format, in 2015.

The Valley View School District - 365U was well represented with talent on the North team. Fresh off of leading Bolingbrook to its first sectional title since 2013, Jahari Smith (16 points), Gabby Smith (15 points) and Lynese Johnson (2 points) combined for 33 points.

“I had a lot of fun,” Gabby Smith said. “It was amazing to do. There were some amazing players out here.”

Romeoville’s Brittany Osborne (13 points) also had a nice game as she nailed a trio of 3-pointers.

Also scoring for North was Krystina Wayne (5 points) and Kelle Knopp (4 points) from Plainfield North.

“It was fun playing with different teammates,” Knopp said.

“It was fun putting on the jersey again. We have been done for about three weeks now, so we were all joking about if the jersey

THURSDAY, MARCH 22, 2018 | BUGLENEWSPAPERS.COM still fit.”

Natalie Takahashi (4 points) from Lisle, Hayley Semple (4 points) from Maine South, Jen Masello (2 points) from Downers Grove South, and Sydney Pardy (2 points) from Westmont. Fiona Spuria from Maine South was also on the North roster.

Pardy and Takahashi were representing the Class 2A schools and enjoyed the chance to show their skills.

“It was super fun,” Takahashi said. “I was a little nervous at the beginning, but once I got to know my teammates, I had fun.

None of us wanted to lose. We wanted to break the scoring record of 81 and we were happy to do that.”

The game started slowly, with both teams missing their first few shots. The South had an 8-7 lead on a 3-pointer by Lockport’s Destiny Davis. But Jahari Smith scored back-to-back baskets to put the North squad ahead for good. Up 15-12 the North team closed the half on a 13-1 run for the 15-point halftime lead and cruised from there.

Joliet West’s Sarah Gersch is now into softball season and will go onto play that sport in college

at Saginaw Valley State University. But she made an impact not only on the court, but also off of it for the Tigers. That’s why basketball coach John Placher nominated her for the annual Voyager Media Award for her display of character, class and sportsmanship on and off the court.

That was the Jeremy Izzo Character Award, which is named after the former Joliet Catholic Academy boys basketball coach, who passed away in 2010. Gersch was this years recipient an was presented the award after the game.

“Yes, my coach [Placher] told me,” Gersch said of winning the award. “That [qualities of the award] is just what I do. I’m not out looking for an award, but it was nice.

“I played three years on varsity basketball and it was fun. I’m playing softball in college, so it was just fun to be out there playing basketball one more time.”

Gersch had seven points in the game. Her teammate - Dasia Norris was one of the co-scoring leaders of the South team with eight points. The other co-scoring leader for the South team had quite the tale to tell of getting to

the game. That was Plainfield East’s Olivia Jenkins, who also had eight points.

Jenkins, however, only played in the second half. That’s because she arrived at the game with seconds to play in the first half and literally wanted to spring into action as she jumped over a chair to take her place on the South bench.

Why was Jenkins late?

“I was attending a musical at my school,” she said of an afternoon event at Plainfield East.

When I got out of there I put St. Francis in my GPS and followed the directions.”

There was one problem with that, the GPS brought up the directions to get to St. Francis High School in Wheaton. Getting there and realizing her mistake, Jenkins had to double back and get to the University of St. Francis in Joliet. So a drive that should have taken 20 minutes or so, instead turned into an hour long adventure.

But being the good natured person she is, Jenkins laughed it off. She will attend Xavier University in Ohio in the fall to play soccer. But she hasn’t given up on basketball yet as she might

play both sports in college.

But either way, her favorite part of the All-Star game was playing one last time with teammate Maiya Creal.

“It was nice to play with Maiya one last time,” Jenkins said. “We didn’t expect to lose when we did [62-55 to Lockport in the Class 4A Oswego East Regional semifinals]. So we weren’t ready to say goodbye then. This gave us one more game together.”

Creal scored six points in the game. Destiny Davis (7 points) and Taylor Hopkins (3 points), who helped Lockport to its first regional title in 11 years, also contributed.

Emily Vollmer (4 points) from Joliet Central and Sam Lordan (1 point) from Plainfield South also scored.

Deericka Martin from Joliet Central and Taylor Shingler from Lockport also played on the South squad.

“It felt good to be in this game and be out there to play,” said Hopkins, who was sidelined for about three weeks during the season with a hip flexor injury.

“I was glad to get back from the injury and it was just fun to play with everyone. There was a lot of talent.”

COLUMN >> DAVE SAYS

Tighten life when in debt DEAR DAVE, I received a call the other day from a company saying it could negotiate the balance on my credit cards to a lesser amount. The caller also said they could get me a zero-percent interest rate until the debts were paid off, and then the accounts would be closed. I’m kind of starting over again financially, because I sold a company I had run for almost 15 years, then got into real estate and lost almost everything. I’m making just enough to squeeze by, and my credit card debt totals $40,000.

Would this be a good idea?

BILL DEAR BILL, No, this is not a good idea.

You’re looking at two major problems with a company such as this one. One, they will absolutely destroy whatever credit you may have. Their plan is to take your cash, and spend some time beating down the credit card companies until they agree to accept a lesser amount. Then, they use your cash to settle loans you will have — by that time —defaulted on. This will put you in a situation very similar to if you had filed Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Stay away

from these people.

You have an income crisis, in addition to a debt crisis, at this point. For starters, I want you to start living on a tight, written, monthly budget. I’m talking rice and beans, no vacations, and no eating out until you pay off this debt. Where your income is concerned, maybe you should consider getting back into the kind of business you ran previously for a while. Look for a managerial or supervisory position in that area, at least until you’re able to get back on your feet and save some cash.
