FIRST CL

Live Jazz will be heard throughout the evening on Friday, September 12th, as a group of legendary musicians bring their love and concern for the elderly to new heights on the rooftop of Flushing House in Queens!

“Jazz Up In The Sky” takes place up on the roof at Flushing House, New York State’s largest, notfor-profit, “Independent Living” retirement community, located in Flushing, Queens. This live jazz extravaganza is a special fundraising dinner/dance/concert, to benefit the 300 older adults who call Flushing House home.

Headlining the evening’s performers is world-famous and Grammy award winning jazz hero Hernan Romero.

The Hernan Romero Group has featured some of the world’s great guitarists, including Al Di Meola, Paco De Lucia and John McLaughlin. This group infuses the exotic traditions of flamencogypsy, Middle Eastern, and Mediterranean folk music, with sounds of classical, jazz and Latin rhythms.

Composer and guitarist Hernan Romero’s music is famous for its sensuous, passionate, romantic and inescapably infectious sounds.

Join other jazz fans at Flushing House, September 12th, and help make “Jazz Up In The Sky” a blowout success! The 7 to 11 p.m. festival features music by other iconic jazz artists, including the Michael Feinberg Quartet and Isamu McGreagor Trio.

The $100 cover charge ($150 for couples) includes a gourmet dinner, wine and beer, all served on the Flushing House rooftop, with a dance floor that boasts spectacular views of New York’s panoramic skyline.

The jazz festival also feature a raffle and silent

so prevalent. Establish a carpool or invite a classmate over for a play date. Unstructured time to play or get to know each other is a great way to establish friendships.

Invite new children over each time to see which friendships are the strongest, but make sure you are not pushing a friendship on your child.

• Discover common interests. One of the quickest ways to build friendships is through common interests, says Kirk Martin, a behavioral therapist and author.

Encourage your child to join a club or sports group where he or she can meet other kids with similar interests.

Sometimes finding reasons to talk other children is the most difficult step to making new friends. Sharing a common interest removes this barrier.

• Teach proper manners.

Children who are polite, well-mannered and know how to follow direction

are better equipped to attract friends. Children who misbehave may be shunned by other kids and their parents who do not want the hassle of an unruly youngster coming over to play. Respectful children who are honest, trustworthy and capable of sustaining eye contact and making small talk may find it easy to make friends.

• Take the friendship lead. As parents, you can improve your child’s

chances of making friends by getting friendly with their classmates’ parents.

You do not have to become bosom buddies with everyone, but making connections with fellow parents can reinforce the value of friendship to your children. Socializing as families also presents other opportunities to get together and solidify

Students learn lessons each day. While many of these lessons pertain to their coursework, kids pick up much more than book smarts from school, where kids first learn to cultivate friendships and build lasting relationships.

In addition to a new curriculum, new teachers and new schedules, kids also might make new friends once a school year begins. While some familiar faces carry through from grade to grade, chances are youngsters will meet new students who will soon become good friends. While many kids find it easy to make new friends, others might need some assistance so they can make the most of opportunities to socialize and form friendships that might last a lifetime.

• Offer opportunities for socialization. Children should be given the opportunity to explore friendships outside of the classroom where peer pressure might not be

Help Children Make New Friends

DOES THIS SOUND EXCITING TO YOU?

What to write...

It’s 8 p.m. on deadline day, and I have no column prepared. Nothing exciting going on, no inspiration to speak of, nothing.

Makes for stimulating reading, right?

Well, I am preparing to go away on vacation, so that’s something. But in the midst of finishing up and making sure all the loose ends are taken care of, I somehow lost the inspiration for my own column along the way. Not that I often spend much time contemplating it, but I at least have the option

of putting a little more thought into it.

Today, not so much.

Vacations are funny like that. You spend so many extra hours preparing to go away that, by the time you get to where you’re going, it hardly seems worth the effort. Shouldn’t the days leading up to a get-away be somewhat calming too?

And don’t even get me started on the headache that awaits once you return from any kind of lengthy break. Piles of mail, inboxes overflowing with unread messages, tons of voicemails…

Ah, but to forget about it all for a day or

two, to be completely disconnected from the world – no phones, no e-mails, no computers, no interruptions. Just peace and quiet and relaxation.

Sounds nice, doesn’t it?

Let me know the next time you have a vacation like that. Really. I’d like to hear if anyone truly “gets away from it all” anymore.

It doesn’t seem like it, but hey, maybe I’m in the minority. Maybe someone out there has discovered the great secret to dropping out of the rat race.

We all have to come back to reality eventually. But let’s at least try to make the break worthwhile.

• Boost confidence levels. As a parent you can talk to your children about their strengths and positive attributes.

Emphasizing kids’ best traits will increase their self-esteem, and that sense of self-worth can make it easier for them to make friends. A child who is shy and insecure may retreat when meeting new people, but a child who can proudly stand behind his or her accomplishments may attract friends easily.

School is about more than just hitting the books. It’s also a prime opportunity for kids to develop their personal skills and make new friends.

PLAYDATE - Connetquot Central School District’s Helen B. Duffield Elementary School recently hosted the annual Kindergarten Playdate to welcome new kindergarten students. Duffield Elementary School Principal Lisa Farrell along with PTA Moms and faculty members organized the event to help the new students and their parents become familiar with the new environment prior to the first day of school. The students participated in a number of fun activities including arts and crafts, while also making new friends.

Digital Learning More Prevalent Technology is an important part of many people’s daily lives. Devices like computers, tablets, smartphones, and video games are now so widely used that it’s hard to imagine a life without email, the Internet or text messages.

Even children are proving adept at using technology, which can be a valuable tool for educators attempting to reach today’s youngsters.

Digital learning is learning facilitated by technology.

Not only can digital learning be done in the classroom, but also it can extend to home life as children continue to explore lessons through hands-on interaction with digital devices.

According to data from Project Tomorrow’s “Speak Up” study, an initiative of the nation’s leading education nonprofit organization, students are frustrated with the lack of technology in their schools and by the lack of sophisticated use of that technology. The study indicates that students want more of the following: • Social-based learning • Tools that increase untethered learning • Development of and connection to a

personal network of expert resources • A digitally rich learning environment Students acclimated to technology at home are not content to merely rely on textbooks or CDs in the classroom. They’re more interested in interactive, Web-based tools that enhance communication and collaboration.

As a result of this shifting landscape, parents should expect to see more lessons and homework involving interactive technology. To make this transition go more smoothly, teachers and parents can work together to ensure kids are making the most of the exciting developments in education.

The following are just a handful of the changes that figure to come about as a result of the transition to digital learning: • Lesson plans, assignments and tutoring opportunities available online for continued reference.

• Learning-centered chat rooms for peer-to-peer interaction and sharing of materials.

• Digital content in the way of high quality academic materials available through interactive apps and

not stagnant PDFs or text materials. Software may range from video lectures to learning games.

• Increased availability of teachers and professors. Students and parents will be able to reach out to educators beyond school hours if assistance or further clarification of assignments is needed.

• Supplemental material that comes at the pace of the student, rather than the pace of an entire classroom. Interactive and adaptive software enables students to spend more or less time on lessons to achieve the best level of learning.

• Digital communication with educators, including online conference scheduling.

• Smartboards, tablets and laptop use more heavily integrated into classrooms.

Digital learning and technological advancements are changing rapidly and helping to reshape the classroom and how kids are learning.

‘‘Cremation...

It just makes sense.’’

“I’ve always thought of it as a much simpler way to memorialize.”

“I don’t want a fancy funeral... the simpler, the better.”

“It’s more environmentally friendly... I like that.”

“It’s easier on the kids, and that’s comforting.”

“I like it because it’s much more affordable.”

New York Dignified Options is New York’s Cremation Expert.

How do we know we get the right ashes back?

Our 10-step identification, security and control system guarantees the integrity of the remains throughout the cremation process. We certify the remains are true.

The cost of the cremation service presently starts at $995, and yes, you can prepay. It makes sense to prepay. You receive a lifetime guarantee that this is all you will ever pay. All funds are placed in a FDIC-insured trust. The interest that is earned offsets price increases resulting from inflation.

Begin by filling out the membership form below and mailing it to us. Once we receive your information, one of our licensed funeral directors will be in contact with you. You can rest easy knowing that everything will be taken care of according to your wishes. You can trust New York Dignified Options to always be here for you and your family.

Do Social Security and Veterans’ benefits apply to the Cremation Society services?

Yes. If you qualify, Social Security pays a lump-sum death benefit of $255. The funds are sent directly to the family. All veterans receive cemetery space and a marker. Some veterans receive cash benefits if certain requirements are met.

Do we have to be embalmed before we can be cremated?

New York law says the deceased must be refrigerated or embalmed. Most funeral homes have to embalm because they don’t offer refrigeration. New York Dignified Options has a refrigeration system.

Yes... I’d like to join.

How do I make prearrangements with New York Dignified Options?

What about newspaper notices, memorial services, etc?

Our staff will arrange a memorial service, place newspaper notices and obtain certified copies of the death certificate.

The new store occupies a portion of space previously leased by King Kullen.

According to Wild by Nature President Brown, “We’ve had many requests for a store in the area and feel this location is ideal. Now, West Islip residents and their neighbors can enjoy the same fresh, healthy foods, environmentally sound products, and freeof-cost wellness seminars as shoppers at our other four locations.”

NEW STUDENTS WELCOMED - Connetquot Central School District’s John Pearl Elementary School recently welcomed new kindergarten students to a fun-filled day of games and a school tour during the annual Kindergarten Picnic. The annual picnic is an opportunity for new kindergarten students and their parents to meet with future classmates and faculty members prior to the first day of school in order to help transition, and ease the anxiety young students may face in a new environment.

Over 100 Sunrise Drive families participated in the first-ever Sunrise Drive Mid-Summer Reading Extravaganza by checking out 450 new books, listening to teacher read-alouds, and participating in book discussions.

“The idea for this event,” Principal Rose Castello explained, “was developed by our librarian Alison McDermott and our reading specialist Mary Beth Dieterle.

Together, they planned the Reading Extravaganza for the first Monday in August. Everyone was so excited about encouraging students to read that more than twenty teachers volunteered to participate

in the day’s events.”

In his book Summer Reading: Closing the Rich/ Poor Reading Achievement Gap by author Richard Allington, he states: “Children who fail to read during the summer break will lose some reading proficiency. The basic problem seems to be access to books.”

Taking to heart this observation, Sunrise Drive Librarians, Ali McDermott and Kim Bronzino, wanted to encourage family literacy. They’d rather see books in the hands of their students than on the library shelves, especially when kids were at home for the summer.

The tremendous

response to the MidSummer Reading Extravaganza was extremely encouraging.

“The large turnout by our community,” Mrs. Dieterle said, “emphasizes the importance of our school library, reading over the summer and conversations about books!

Opening up our library during the summer to our families created a greater sense of community and emphasized the importance of home school connection.”

“It was wonderful to see so many children excited about summer reading!”

Principal Castello agreed.

SALONE DI BIANCA - Salone Di Bianca recently held a ribbon cutting ceremony at 369 West Jericho Turnpike in Huntington to celebrate its grand opening. Among those on hand for the occasion were: Owner Bianca Falzone, Master Colorist Dana Rabena, Top Stylists Danielle Ciccolella and Dora Nolasco, and Junior Stylist Caroline Bokszczanin.

The Right Chemistry

When you speak to Steven Parrinelli today, you sense a smart, confident young man who is carefully selecting his next moves to achieve his goal of a career in medicine.

But as a grammar school student at St. Patrick School in Huntington, Steven hadn’t selected a direction for his life. In fact, according to Steven; “My breakout years didn’t come until I was a high school student.”

Parents That Believed In Catholic School

Like many of the students in Catholic elementary schools, Steven started in elementary school because his parents “are strong believers in Catholic education”.

The elementary school they selected for Steven, St. Patrick’s in Huntington, reinforced the values they lived at home and was able to provide a great deal of individual attention to Steven’s learning needs. Steven remembers St. Patrick’s for its small size, for the many friends he made during his time there, and for the strong feeling of community within St. Patrick Parish and School. “St. Patrick’s provided an excellent educational foundation, and I was a good student, but I hadn’t yet gotten competitive about my grades.” said Steven.

The “Breakout” Years Like the overwhelming majority of Catholic elementary school students, Steven elected to go to Catholic high school and like the most of the students he got his first choice of schools: St. Dominic’s in Oyster Bay. It was after mid-term exams in Steven’s first year at St. Dominic High School that he had what he considers his ‘breakout’. The chance to be on the Honor Roll at St. Dominic’s gave him the incentive. The additional recognition each trimester of a Principal’s List Luncheon made it personal. The individual attention he received and the chance to know the teachers from his AP (Advanced Placement) classes personally were some of Steven’s favorite parts of the high school experience.

One Individual

Stands Out While the interpersonal relationships Steven enjoyed with his teachers and members of the administration were powerful incentives, one particular relationship stands out. As Steven puts it; “My Global History and US History teacher, Mr. Drysielski, taught me the most valuable skill I mastered in high school.” “He taught me how to express myself better in writing.”

Steven continued. “Being a better writer has helped me everywhere.”

Looking Forward After looking at various college options, Steven was invited by the University of Scranton to visit their campus. In Steven’s words; “I felt like I belonged here.”

The manageable size of the school, the friendly people, and a strong science program were the ‘selling points’.

That and the Dean’s Scholarship which will fund half of Steven’s college were all considerations in selecting the University of Scranton. “I am considering a career in medicine,” said Steven. “The strong science program at the University of Scranton will help me prepare for medical school.”

My discussion with Steven ended with his rationale for wanting to become a doctor; “I like to help people.”

We couldn’t agree more! Steven is a fine example of the academically prepared and spiritually grounded students graduating from Long Island’s Catholic schools.

(NAPSI)-Doing a little homework before you travel could save you time at the airport.

For instance, visiting www.TSA.gov, the Transportation Security Administration’s Web site, can help you learn

what items can be packed in carry-on and which are best left in checked suitcases. You can also learn size requirements for toiletries that are allowed on planes and then find properly sized items in stores.

As a final tip, remember that all carry-on gels, liquids and aerosols need to be placed in a 1-quart, single zip-top, clear plastic bag. For more information and tips, visit www.shave.com.

Students learn many important lessons while in middle school and high school. Assignments get progressively more difficult, and students grow accustomed to being independent thinkers and largely responsible for their educational accomplishments.

In addition, students may learn other lessons, such as how organization can play a critical role in success and benefit them both in the classroom and out of it.

Students are typically introduced to lockers during high school or middle school.

As elementary school students, kids use classroom desks to store books and supplies, and how desks are organized is often governed by teachers who have firm rules regarding the condition of desks.

Lockers are an entirely different story. Students are solely responsible for organizing and maintaining their lockers and may be tasked with following a few

rules set forth by the school.

Students may overlook the importance of organized lockers, and in such instances lockers can easily become disaster areas. But a messy locker can add unnecessary stress to a school day. Getting lockers organized requires some effort and upkeep.

• Color code the locker.

Grouping subjects by color can make it easier to find notebooks, textbooks and folders in a locker. If materials necessary for math class are colored in red, students can quickly find these materials en route to class.

• Remove trash. Remove anything that does not belong in the locker, including garbage and old projects. Students should not use their lockers to store items they don’t need for school. That only takes away space for the stuff kids do need for class.

• Group according to schedule. In addition to employing a color-coding

system, students also can group books by daily schedule. Organize the locker based on which classes are held in the morning and afternoon.

This makes it less likely that students will forget supplies they need for class.

• Think about extra accessories. Lockers have the basics, which are usually a shelf and a hook for coats.

All sorts of locker accessories exist to customize the interior. An extra shelf may be helpful for storing books or smaller supplies.

Look into a message board or more hooks that can be hung on the inside of the door. Figure out what your child can use to keep items from piling up on the floor.

• Develop a maintenance plan. Old assignments may begin to accumulate inside a locker. This can be remedied by maintaining a cleaning schedule for a locker. A few minutes each week can keep a locker clean and clear of clutter.

School Bus Safety Many students take the bus to school twice a day, five days a week.

Approximately 26 million elementary and secondary school children ride school buses daily in the United States, and the U.S. Department of Transportation says more than 50 percent of all K-12 students in the country ride yellow school buses, traveling approximately 4 billion miles each year.

The vast majority of these miles are traveled without incident. In fact, according to the National Safety Council, the national school bus accident rate is 0.01 per 100 miles traveled, compared to 0.96 for other passenger vehicles, which makes school buses considerably safer than other passenger vehicles.

Though school buses are safe, there are other ways to make them even safer. Children, especially those new to school buses, may find the bus fun

and unique and not pay attention to simple safety rules. But parents should take steps to ensure that youngsters always heed the following school bus safety guidelines.

• Wait for the bus in a safe location that is away from traffic, ideally staying in a designated school bus stop until the bus arrives.

• Dress for optimal visibility, especially in inclement weather when it can be difficult for the school bus driver and other motorists to see pedestrians.

• Do not board the bus until it comes to a complete stop. Wait for the driver to open the door, which engages the “Stop” sign for oncoming motorists.

• Use the handrail and enter the bus in an orderly manner.

• Promptly find a seat, sit down and buckle the safety belt if there is one available.

Students assigned seats on the bus should take their

seat without making a fuss.

• Keep backpacks and other belongings out of the center aisle. Store them under your seat or on your lap.

• Remain seated at all times while the bus is in motion.

• Keep arms, hands, legs, and heads inside of the bus at all times.

• Always follow the driver’s instructions and avoid situations that will cause driver distraction.

• Wait for the bus to stop completely before standing up or attempting to exit.

• Exit the bus in an orderly manner, without pushing fellow passengers.

• Only cross the street in front of the bus. It is very difficult for the driver to see students crossing behind the bus.

• Wait for the driver to check traffic before crossing the street and be on the lookout for inattentive motorists.

The benefits of a healthy diet are clear and well documented. In addition to providing the nutrients a growing body needs, consuming a balanced diet helps children maintain a healthy weight. Obesity continues to be a growing problem among schoolaged children and can contribute to the onset of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, and many other adverse medical conditions.

Children attending school will eat at least one meal away from home each day. A healthy lunch provides sound nutrition to give students energy to do well in school and for the rest of the day.

Children who do not eat well at lunch may have difficulty concentrating, while others may feel sluggish or tired.

As part of the 2010 Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, the United States National School Lunch Program was revised to guarantee healthy, nutritionally sound choices, as established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, for lunch.

America’s school menus were altered to be healthier than ever, including more fruits and vegetables while limiting calories. Despite some controversy through the years, including some students saying the smaller portions and food choices aren’t always satisfying, states suffering from high child obesity rates have seen marked improvements.

Canada is one of the few leading industrialized countries that does not have a national nutrition strategy to implement healthy school lunches.

It’s estimated that only 10 to 15 percent of Canadian children have access to school meals. These meals are not provided by a wellfunded national program, but by a patchwork of individual volunteer efforts, some provincial government funding and

corporate donations.

Whether students purchase lunch from school or bring lunch from home, there are ways to guarantee a more diverse offering and better nutrition. Here are some guidelines to follow.

• Offer nutrient-dense foods.

Foods should contribute to the daily recommended amounts of protein, iron, calcium, vitamin A, and vitamin C. Provide a selection of foods, such as lean protein, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, that will give children the nutrients they need. Nutrient-dense foods also help kids feel fuller, longer.

• Limit fat intake. Avoid foods that do not get their fat from polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. Saturated fats can lead to obesity and clogged arteries. The American Heart Association recommends kids get no more than 25 to 35 percent of their calories from fat.

Fish, nuts and olives are healthy fat sources.

• Let kids choose some of their food. Allow kids to pick some of the healthy foods they will be eating.

Giving kids a say in their diets will make them more likely to enjoy their lunches and cut back on snack foods. Eating meals regularly will keep energy levels up during school and make kids less likely to reach for unhealthy snacks to fill hunger gaps.

• Make small changes that add up. Switching from white bread to whole grain breads, and opting for low-fat dairy products instead of full-fat dairy products can make a world

of difference. Kids may not notice a change in texture or flavor, and many of kids’ favorite foods, such as chicken nuggets, pizza and macaroni and cheese, can be made with healthier ingredients.

• Remember, beverages count, too. Giving children a healthy lunch and then packing a sugar-filled, high-calorie drink negates your efforts. Calories from beverages can quickly add up. Water is always the best option for a healthy drink. Low-fat milk and real fruit juice consumed in moderation also make healthy alternatives to sugary beverages.

Offering healthy school lunches is an important step to raising healthy kids. New guidelines and offerings make it easier for kids to get the nutrition they need for their growing bodies.
