commentary' for a movie being shown in class. Teaching religion, however, does have a very meaningful purpose to me. I think that religion answers the 'why' questions in many teenagers' minds. It gives kids a reason to care, a reason to hit the books, or maybe the extra energy to get them through the day. When my students get in small groups, I see each one of them contributing to the work of the group."

Mr. Alfred Pun tel "I spend a lot of time planning classes that are relevant to what students might need to know in religion and communicating what I think Catholic moral values and principles are. The better students put a lot of time into trying to master the material. They also raise important questions to further clarify the material being presented. Their questioning, their test-taking, and their general enthusiasm for what's going on all reflect their interest and intelligence." Brother Michael Andrejko, F.S.C. "I believe that 'Intelligent Life' exists here at LaSalle. Generally, students learn very quickly. I try to bring what I'm teaching into the classroom and relate it to the world that the students live in. I believe in educating the 'entire person,' not just the mind. To me the 'entire person' consists of their ability, responsiveness, and effort."

Brother Kenneth Cook, F.S.C. "Five years ago I was assigned to LaSalle. I was very influenced in teaching style by some of my own teachers. I try to use a mixture of techniques, in the sense that I think that people ought to be able to use their other skills in class. Writing should be a skill well-used, and I want to give the students opportunities to ask good questions and answer good questions."
