fi rst state fi nal game.His Tigers battled back-and-

forth with Summit as both teams only scored one goal apiece. Tenafl y senior forward Eric Shalek provided their lone shot to reach the net.

Like many times in the state playoffs, Tenafl y was always coming back. And Shalek’s goal came about a minute after Summit scored the fi rst goal. The Shalek twin brothers com-bined for the score as Eric’s brother Scott passed to Eric from behind the net to even the game at one.

For three periods it could not be decided and the game went into overtime. If both teams did not score in the overtime period then there would be co-champs.

In the extra session, Escala said that Summit just had a little more energy as Summit Riley Flynn’s slap shot went past Winawer with 5:01 remain-ing in the overtime. The Tigers were outshot 8-2 and in the end Winawer saved 26 of the Sum-mit 28 shots on goal.

“I just think Summit had a little more legs in them,” said Escala about playing another overtime game.

Despite the loss in the state fi nals, his 2011-12 Tigers set a school record for victories

with 22 after fi nishing 22-4-2. “We knew that we had a strong team to get there and we were so close to winning the whole thing,” said Escala. “They worked hard and they played a team game.”

And during the run of over-time games in the state play-offs, Tenafl y’s Winawer stood

By Edward KensikTENAFLY — Tenafl y’s ice

hockey team was skating on a Cinderella run in the state playoffs.

They had gone four overtimes, two of which turned into shoot-outs and won every one of them en route to The Prudential Cen-ter for The Public B state cham-pionship in early March.

The Tigers defeated Glen Rock, 2-1, in a shootout at the Mennen Arena in Morristown in the semi-fi nals. In that game Tenafl y was four minutes away from not reaching the state title when junior forward Eli Mar-kowitz scored for the Tigers to send the game into overtime.

And then behind the goal keeper of Tenafl y senior net minder Jon Winawer, the Ti-gers defeated Glen Rock for a trip to The Rock.

It was an achievement for a program that is only 14 years old and for New Jersey hockey there are only three champions without any sectional titles like in basketball.

But there was Tigers’ head coach Andy Escala, the only coach that Tenafl y’s varsity team has known, his team and hundreds of white-shirted Tenafl y fans behind him at The Rock, the goal of any New Jer-sey high school fan, in Tenafl y’s

He added that there was not one game that he could point to that he felt his team would reach the fi nals. “I think that we had the ability all along and worked hard every game,” said Escala.

For the 2012-13 season he

knows he has holes to fi ll with 11 players graduating including Winawer and the Shalek broth-ers.

Along with coaching Tenafl y hockey, Escala is also the middle school athletic director at Elisabeth Morrow School in Englewood.

For seven years he coached

both baseball at Dwight-Engle-wood and ice hockey at Tenafl y before deciding on just coach-ing ice hockey.

“Hockey is just a faster game and you have more control of the game,” said Escala about the preference of hockey over coaching baseball. “For base-ball it comes down to pitching.”

Before coaching he had played baseball at Jackson-ville University in Florida, a NCAA Division 1 school.

He played ice hockey at Ped-die High School in Hightstown, New Jersey for two years after transferring from Dwight-En-glewood where he played just baseball.

By Dennis Wilson Bergen Catholic’s Johnny Sebastian and Don Bosco Prep’s Razohnn Gross completed their “Road to the Gold” by stepping to the top level of the awards podium at the conclusion of the NJSIAA State Wrestling Tournament in Atlantic City. DePaul’s Dave McFadden and Don Bosco Prep’s Sal Mastriani picked up silver medals while Becton’s James Dugan turned in a third place effort. With one minute remaining in the third period, Sebastian trailed Hammonton’s Phillip Bakuckas 3-0 in the 160-pound title match. The sophomore escaped for his fi rst point, picked up a second with 20 ticks remaining before converting a hip toss for a take-down and added three back points to rally to a 7-3 decision. Gross, a junior, became the Ironmen’s fi rst-ever state champion when he pulled out a 5-3 victory over North Bergen’s Eric McMul-len in overtime in the 195-pound bracket. In the OT period, Gross worked a single leg grab into the winning two-point takedown.

FOR 2012 SEASON!

PRE SEASONFOOTBALL TRAINING

Speed, agility and conditioning training is a large part of our program. Our goal is to increase the overall linear speed of our athletes as well as increase their agility, to allow them to explosively break and then accelerate again. Our athletes perform speci c change of direction drills that help them on the eld in game time situations. Speed and agility is KEY to becoming a better overall athlete. Our conditioning program is the difference maker. We make sure that our athletes can play with the same physical and mental capacity they did at kick-off right through to the 4th quarter and OT. When the game matters most!

By Dennis Wilson Bergen Catholic’s David Brennen, Lakeland’s Spencer Carey, Pequannock’s Brenden Murphy and West Milford’s David Zeppe-telli were among a cast of a dozen local grapplers who turned in gold medal performances in the 2012 NJ Kids State Wrestling Champions that concluded on March 17. Carey won the Intermediate Division’s 136-pound bracket when he pulled out a 6-5 decision over Kyle Murphy of the Edge in the title bout. Seeded No. 1, Carey posted a 4-2 decision over Tyler Mullin of Olympic in the semifi nals after recording a 3-2 overtime verdict in the quarterfi nals against Nico Cappetti of the Scorpi-ons. He opened his quest for the crown winning a 5-2 decision over Luke Drugac of Morris Knolls in the pre-quarterfi nals. Murphy claimed fi rst place in the High School Cadet Division’s 135-pound bracket with an exciting 1-0 decision Joshua Gergeich of Roselle Park. He advanced to the fi nal round by decking West Milford’s Aaron Furnbach 1:53 into the fi rst period of the semifi nals and pinning Andre Adams of Euight Planet in the quarterfi nals. Zeppetelli reigns as champion of the High School Cadet Division 125-pound competition. Top-seeded, Zeppetelli defeated Thomas Poklikula of Ten Wrestling 7-4 for the crown. He registered a 6-1 decision against Eastern’s Roland Barbella and posted an 8-2 decision against Jack Nigro of Morris Knolls in the quarterfi nals. Bergen Catholic’s David Brennan toppled Passaic Valley’s Mu-hammed Darwich for the 145-pound title. In the Junior Division, it was back-to-back conquests for Saddle Brook’s Vincent Andreano (80-pounds) and Westwood’s Shan Griffi th (85-pounds). Pascack Hills’ duo of Kevin Mulligan and Eric Chakonis (215-Pounds) triumphed while Hackensack’s Joe Chucaralao won the 175-pound competition.

By Rick Wolff It’s a very natural assump-

tion.Your youngster shows some

real sign of athletic talent at a very early age, and a coach or perhaps a neighbor sug-gests that your son or daugh-ter would be well-served to forego playing a variety of sports, as most kids do, and instead, just focus on soccer, or ice hockey, or whatever the sport may be.

After all, the logic goes, if your kid plays that one singu-

want to play. That’s the key. Too many parents tend to

drive the train on this issue. Instead, have the courage to listen to your son or daugh-ter, and see what THEY want to do.

That’s the way to insure that they stay motivated, fresh, and — oh yeah — actu-ally have fun in their sporting endeavors.

makes sense. Among the unanswered (but real) ques-tions:

• If my kid plays a solitary sport all year round, won’t that lead to burn-out in that sport? That is, won’t he or she begin to regard having to go to prac-tice or play road games as something of an obligation, or chore, than being fun?

As one of my callers on the show suggested this AM, if your kid eats chocolate ice cream every for seven years, won’t the thrill of eating that dessert wear off after awhile?

• What about the concerns of repetitive use injuries? Lots of studies DO suggest that too much practice can cause serious wear-and-tear on a youngster’s joints and growth plates.

Does specialization really make a difference in the long run? Invariably, no matter how much your youngster practic-es and plays on travel teams, eventually they will go only as far as their God-given talent will take them. And if there is one truth in this discussion, that’s the one that is univer-sally accepted as true.

So, what do you do? Well, above all, start by listening to your child and asking them what sport or sports THEY

attack Emma Bolton, Sarah Durso, Morgan Lamb and Alex-andra Shell will be heavily con-sidered for all star selections.

Indian Hills is another can-didate for a state title as the fi repower will be produced by junior middie Natalie Carr who has already registered 235 points in her two-year career after notching 17 as a sopho-more. Nicole Kopyta is another junior who packs a lethal scor-ing shot while seniors Kayla Savage and Katie Taranto are the veterans on the fi eld.

Glen Rock might be a year away with a large array of sub-seniors, led by Fiona McDon-ald and Maggie Egan. Junior Claire Gallo is talented in the goal while Alexandra Ballman and Catherine Tatigan know where the goal mouth is.

Looking for a surprise team? Take a peek at Waldwick which begins only its second season as a varsity program. The Lady Warriors have a pair of goalies, Meredith Levine and Chris-tina LoMartire, who will keep all games close with the as-sistance of standout defender Alexa Iannatuano. The attack will be provided by seniors Karlin Heulitt and Jessica Tor-res along with junior Monica Torres.

Other returning standouts are Cara Batelli (Mahwah), Ki-ara Boswick (Ramapo), Kayt-

lin Callaghan (Wayne Valley), Christina Constantino (Mah-wah), Melanie Everett (Holy Angels),Rachel Gruber (Fair Lawn), Lexi Halperin (Pas-cack Valley), Victoria Kanares (Northern Valley/Demarest), Lexi Krantz (Ramapo), Amy Lates (Pascack Valley), Sa-mantha Leonard (Wayne Val-ley), Karen Lewis (Northern

top of the heap in the chal-lenge for supremacy in the state girls’ lacrosse competi-tion. The Lady Maroons will be led by senior midfi elder Kelci Smesko who earned All-American accolades as a junior when Ridgewood re-peated as the NJSIAA Tour-nament of Champions winner. Her classmates Kiley Dono-van and Courtney Tarleton are proven, quality veterans while the Lauren Beausoleil, Maggie Carver, Kaitlin Con-cilio and Katie Smesko pro-vide outstanding support.

Gabby McMahon netted 61 goals and distributed 25 as-sist during her sophomore campaign for Immaculate Heart Academy which will of-fer a challenge to Ridgewood. She is joined by her sister Izzy, Lauren Reers, Maura Schwit-ter and Brittany Tarantino.

Northern Highlands will be a formidable foe for everyone, as the Lady Highlanders will rely on senior midfi elder Kate Callahan to provide the spark in the attack after establish-ing a single-season scoring record of 100 points when she netted 62 goals and dished off 38 assist. Her classmate Becky Corn is talented and will cause the opposition to prepare for a double-pronged

Thunderbirds’ Collins will Range Far and Wide on LAX Turf

By Sal GiganteMahwah ranks as the lead-

ing contender for the Rizk Division crown in boys’ la-crosse competition. The Thunderbirds will be ignited by senior midfi elder Bob Collins who will continue his academic/athletic career un-der the Golden Dome on the campus of the University of Notre Dame after netting 34 goals and distributing 16 as-sists as a junior. With defense a key to success in big games, the Thunderbirds are stocked with quality players surround-ing senior goalie Mike Spera, including Jason Floyd and Steve Reuther.

As usual, defending Bergen County champion Ridgewood will be a major factor in chal-lenging for titles. Junior Noah Pounds is one of the elite goalies in the state and se-nior defenders Ryan Ghaderi and Tripp Tedesco will make the Maroons were diffi cult to score on. The entire attack component is in place with Garcia Logan, Max Luing and Connor O’Shea, so goals will be placed on the scoreboard.

Bergen Catholic looks to re-bound from a losing season into a contender with senior midfi elder Brendon McGuire leading the way after record-ing 53 points, including 37 goals, as a junior. The attack will be back with seniors Nick Discola, and Jamie Piluso supporting McGuire. Senior goalie Matt Pedrick solidifi es the “D” end of the fi eld.

Glen Rock’s Tim Miller drilled 50 goals into oppo-nents’ cages and added 16 as-sists as a junior in leading the Panthers’ to the co-champi-onship of the Rizk Division a year ago. In addition to Miller, his classmates Pat Egan and Alex Walker are proven scor-ers while defensive standouts Toph Clark, Pat Keller and Matt Slodowitz return.

With senior goalie Eric Heinowitz back, Indian Hills is projected to embark on a good season. Sam Greer, Tyer

Larkin, Mike Pappalardo, Tyler Walker and Reed Zak are vet-eran attackmen.

Don Bosco Prep, despite a large contingent of graduates, is a program that re-loads, never re-builds. The Ironmen retain junior attackman Max Allen as well as midfi elders Nick Buchanan, Marc Buer-man, Conor Scavone, Teddy Sisco and Max Troast.

Other leading veterans are: Matt Brodley (Pascack Hills), Scott Cannon (Northern High-lands), Max Fields (Wayne Hills), Zach Hirsch (Ramapo), Mike Mazzana (DePaul), MacK-enzie Peters (Wayne Valley), Evan Rowley (River Dell), James Temple (Northern Highlands), Tyler Van Ben-schoten (St. Joseph Regional/Montvale), Thomas Williams (Dwight-Englewood) and Mike Sumbrano (Waldwick).

Strength, in certain move-ments eludes many of us. How do we harness this pow-er? By Greasing the Groove — according to Pavel Tsat-souline, the father of modern day Kettlebell Training and Strength Development.

It’s a very simple and point-ed notion, yet requires great discipline. You have to re-tool your thinking from sim-ply working out to practicing strength.

If you desire to get better at a specifi c exercise, you will need to practice it through-out the day. Do not do your sets to complete failure; rath-er focus on doing 50 to 60% of your maximum.

For example, if you would like to increase your push-ups and you max out at 50, do sets of 25 or 30 reps 4 to 5 times throughout the day. You may want to vary the routine by performing 5 to 10 repetitions very slowly or a combination of the two.

Only focus on one to two exercises for approximately 6 weeks. Do the routine 5 days

per week. Try Pull-ups and Pistols (one legged squats). Do 5 pull ups and 1 pistol fi ve to 6 times a day. Increase one repetition of each exercise, each set per week. By the end of the 6 week period, you will be doing 50 to 60 pull ups per day and 30 to 36 pistols! This is quite an incredible improve-ment in strength. Then move to another exercise or two.

Why does this work? Shouldn’t we train to failure and then recover and get stronger that way? ABSO-LUTELY NOT!

You increase your strength due to synaptic facilitation. By utilizing a relatively intense stimulation repeated frequent-ly at full strength, increases the strength of the synaptic connections. In other words, more boost will be given to the muscle when performing a given exercise and the muscle will have learned to make a harder contraction and yield more strength.

You may do the same with weights. If you are able to per-form a maximum dead lift of

400, do sets of 3 to 6 reps of 250. Do it 4 to 6 times a day. I have a friend of mine who increased his already respect-able bench press by more than 75 pounds in 4 weeks! He was bench pressing 425 and start-ed “Greasing the Groove” by doing 3 repetitions of 315 4 to 6 times a day 4 days per week. His bench press went through the roof in 1 month and he

broke the 500 pound mark!Pick an exercise, do it fre-

quently 4 to 6 times a day and keep it up for 6 weeks and see how you improve. You will be astonished. Let me know your results.

Good Luck!Train Hard & Train Smart!Coach Philwww.kettlebellking.com

Picking an exercise such as pull-ups and doing it frequently 4 to 6 times a day for 6 weeks can build toward an incredible improvement.

recover within four weeks. Re-peated concussions or a severe concussion may lead to long-lasting problems with move-ment, learning, or speaking. In some cases, concussions can produce more serious or even life-threatening problems, such as if any bleeding occurs in the brain. That’s why it is critical for an injured student-athlete to receive appropriate medical attention, even if symptoms do not appear to be serious.

What are the initial symptoms of a concussion?

Symptoms vary greatly and unlike a sprain or broken bone, the signs may not present them-selves immediately. Typically, however, the initial symptoms may include:• Headache• Dizziness• Nausea or vomiting• Confusion or disorientation to time, place • Loss of memory for events preceding injury• Diffi culty remembering new information• Drowsiness or lethargy • Disruption of balance • Sensitivity to light or noise • Visual blurriness or fuzziness• Clumsiness, stumbling, or slowed movement

Are there additional symptoms a student-athlete might have?

Following an injury, individu-als may also begin to experi-ence a range of diffi culties, in-cluding:• Change in mood, often dis played as restlessness, sadness or irritability• Problems with concentration, attention, memory, thinking or multi-tasking• Ringing in the ears• Changes in normal sleep patterns – sleeping more, less or not being able to sleep at all • Feeling mentally slower, “foggy” or “groggy”

What should parents, teachers, coaches and

cognitive and behavioral effects can result.

How does a concussion occur?

The brain is a soft organ sur-rounded by spinal fl uid and pro-tected by the hard skull. Nor-mally, the fl uid around the brain acts like a cushion to keep the brain from hitting against the skull. However, a sudden, sharp or violent blow to the head or even to the body can cause the brain to crash against the skull. This temporarily prevents the brain from working normally.

What is the risk of injury? The risk of sustaining a con-

cussion is signifi cant – par-ticularly when an individual en-gaging in any sport or activity where speed, person-to-person contact, or person-to-object (such as a ball) is involved. In fact, nationwide, more than 3.8 million student athletes will sustain some type of sports-related brain injury each year. Mild traumatic brain injury can also be caused by motor vehi-cle accidents, falls and physical violence.

In what sports are we most likely to see concussions?

The greatest risk of injury occurs in high-contact sports, such as football, hockey, box-ing, soccer and basketball. Football-related injuries are the most prevalent, despite the use of helmets and other protec-tive gear. Boys have a higher incidence of concussion than girls because they are more likely to be involved in contact sports. However, girls have a greater susceptibility to concus-sions than boys, particularly in certain sports like soccer and cheerleading.

How dangerous is a concussion?

A concussion will often result in a brief loss of consciousness or a period of confusion. Symp-toms (see below) may last any-where from a few seconds to several weeks but most people

others watch for? Those closest to the individu-

al may notice other changes in cognitive, behavioral and emo-tional status, such as:• Odd or unusual behavior and emotional outbursts• Unexplained drop in grades and/or social functioning• Diffi culties in social functioning or isolation• Confusion, Emotional distress, frustration or feelings of “going crazy” • Short-term loss of newly learned skills or memory/ recall problems

What should be done when an injury occurs?

Any athlete suspected of sus-taining a concussion should be removed from competition immediately and examined by a trained professional. If the player experiences a loss of consciousness, even if just for a few seconds, he/she should be taken to the emergency room for a thorough neurologi-cal evaluation.

What kind of testing is available?

A cognitive assessment should be part of a pre-season physical. This important tool, which is increasingly being used at both the professional and school-age levels, helps to establish a baseline measure of cognitive functioning that can be helpful in diagnosing the extent of any brain injury. Today, most schools require that student athletes undergo imPACT™ testing.

What is imPACT testing and why is it so important?

ImPACT™ testing is a com-puterized assessment of an individual’s cognitive skills, such as thinking, learning and attention. Administered by a physician, neuropsycholo-gist, athletic trainer or other licensed healthcare profes-sional, the test provides an im-portant baseline point-of-refer-ence for the student-athlete.

If a concussion is diagnosed

Hard Hits: Exploring Sport-Related Concussion

From the National Football League to Little League, con-cussion — or mild traumatic brain injury — is a hot topic. And like the professional leagues, New Jersey is taking a long hard look at these inju-ries. In fact, the state recently enacted legislation to improve awareness and prevention of sport-related concussions.

Concussive brain injuries are common among the state’s student-athletes, whether they participate in football, hockey, basketball, baseball, gymnastics or cheerleading. The greatest challenges for coaches, parents and school administrators, as well as the individual student, is that a concussion often goes unrec-ognized, which can lead to the disruption of academic, social and emotional functioning.

Kessler Institute for Rehabili-tation, one of only 14 federally-designated Model Systems in the nation for brain injury re-habilitation, has pioneered this fi eld for more than 60 years. As part of its renowned Brain Injury program, Kessler of-fers a specialized Concussion Clinic to effectively identify and treat sport-related brain injuries, as well as to provide baseline screenings, post-inju-ry evaluations and educational programs to school districts throughout the state.

To provide a better under-standing of concussive inju-ries, Kessler Institute discusses the complex symptoms, treat-ment and return-to-play guide-lines in the following Q&A.

What is a concussion? A concussion, also known as

a mild traumatic brain injury, occurs when a blow or jolt to the head or body disrupts nor-mal brain function, typically causing a change in mental status or consciousness. Al-though evidence of a concus-sion may not be apparent through CT or MRI scans, mi-croscopic damage to the soft tissues of the brain may have taken place and long-lasting

on ness, implementing testing pro-grams, developing prevention strategies and managing play-ers’ injuries can be challenging. With extensive experience and expertise in treating brain injury, Kessler is working closely with schools throughout the state to provide imPact testing and post-injury neuropsychological evaluations. Kessler also offers schools a Concussion Aware-ness Program, which includes presentations on a variety of concussion-related topics, as well as consultative services to help school districts with policy development and related guide-lines.

What do the schoolshave to say?

“Working with the experts at

Kessler has been an extremely

positive and productive expe-

rience. Northern Highlands’

partnership with Kessler is a

prime example of a profession-

al relationship that benefi ts

our student-athletes, parents,

coaches and recreational vol-

unteers. We are thankful to

Kessler for this focus on com-

understand that ignoring their symptoms can result in serious complications and long-term problems.

What is the role of coaches and teachers?

Coaches, trainers and oth-ers involved in a school’s ath-letic program need to help their players to understand that in the game of life their health and well-being is paramount. This can be diffi cult given an athlete’s desire to play – and a coach’s desire to have him/her on the fi eld, especially if a “star” player is injured. But that is why it’s even more important for coaches, teachers, and par-ents to be able to recognize the range of symptoms and work together to monitor a player with a suspected injury.

How does an injury affect classroom performance?

Often overlooked is the aca-demic performance of a player while he/she is recovering from a concussive injury. In some cases, a player may be required to miss some school or may have diffi culties in the class-room with attention, concen-tration, test-taking and other tasks. Although most individu-als will recover within days or weeks, accommodations may need to be made for the student during that time.

What are the outcomes for injured student-athletes?

A concussion is a serious in-jury, but the good news is that most individuals do make a full recovery. With stronger guidelines and new school poli-cies in place, as well as access to effective assessment tools and specialized treatment, an injured student-athlete is likely to be able to resume play in a timely manner. Critical to this is the ability of parents, teachers, coaches and others to under-stand and recognize the symp-toms of a mild traumatic brain injury and partner with health care professionals to optimize the individual outcome.

What services does Kessler offer to schools throughout the state?

Building concussion aware-

or even suspected, the individ-ual is re-assessed and scores are compared to identify any cognitive changes and the extent of injury. The fi ndings are helpful in determining the need for treatment, as well as in establishing a return-to-play timetable.

When can an injured player return to play?

Although there are no formal or clear-cut guidelines, the New Jersey State Interscho-lastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA) recommends that any student athlete suspected of sustaining a concussion be immediately removed from play and not be allowed to re-turn that day. The individual should be evaluated by a phy-sician experienced in treating mild traumatic brain injury.

It’s important to keep in mind that it takes time for the brain to recover. Rest is critical and, depending on the recommen-dations of medical and cogni-tive rehabilitation specialists, the athlete should limit activi-ties for a period of time. Once given clearance, he/she should follow a gradual six-step physi-cal return-to-play evaluation period.

How dangerous is it to return to play too soon?

Perhaps the greatest danger in returning to play too soon is the risk of sustaining another concussion. Multiple concus-sions, particularly when they occur over a short period of time, can have a cumulative effect, resulting in lasting cog-nitive and behavioral impair-ments.

What about the pressure to return to competition?

No student-athlete likes to be sidelined, but they do need to be honest about any problems they may be experiencing. All too often, players will disre-gard their symptoms, “tough it out” or try to cover up any defi -cits in order to return to play quickly. They do this so that they will not lose their com-petitive edge or their position on a team, or let their team and coaches down. However, these young athletes need to

munity outreach.” – John J. Keenan, Superintendent, Northern Highlands Regional High School

“The safety of our student-

athletes is of the utmost im-

portance at Cresskill. We felt

this relationship with Kessler

would create an opportunity

to bring in brain-injury ex-

perts to present the facts to

our coaches, training staff

and parents. I attended the

ries are not taken seriously.”

RIDGEWOOD, NJ (Grassroots Newswire) February 23, 2012 — Huntington Learning Center in Ridgewood joins schools, colleges, universities, student groups, and other related asso-ciations and interest groups to celebrate Mathematics Aware-ness Month this April. Mathe-matics Awareness Month began in 1986 when President Ronald Reagan issued a proclama-tion for National Mathematics Awareness Week. The annual celebration is a collaboration of the American Mathematical So-ciety, the American Statistical Association, the Mathematical Association of America and the Society for Industrial Applied Mathematics.

The theme of this year’s Math-ematics Awareness Month is “Mathematics, Statistics, and the Data Deluge,” to bring to light how mathematics and sta-tistics provide the tools to un-derstand the massive amounts of data collected every day from many different networks, instru-ments, devices and other sourc-es. Math helps protect people from the misuse of such data and also is the key to using data sets for numerous business and other opportunities.

“We live in an era where tech-nology plays a crucial role in our daily lives,” says Sena Salloum of the Ridgewood Huntington Learning Center. “Data is every-where, and used every time we go to the grocery store, every time we use the Internet. This year’s theme for Mathematics Awareness Month really speaks to the practical application of math—something we try to in-still in students. Math is used everywhere, all the time. We’re proud to celebrate Mathematics Awareness Month as a valuable skill that can prepare students for so many different careers.”

Even at a young age, parents can help their children learn the importance of math in everyday life. Salloum offers a few ideas for parents to help their child practice math while at home or on the go:

1. Have your child help you make a recipe and put him or her in charge of all measuring. Ask questions along the way—is two ¼ cups the same as a half cup? How can you tell?

2. Try fun family projects that

By Dr. Raymond J. HuntingtonWhen children are very young, they

are naturally curious, inventing games, songs and stories, seeking answers to endless questions, and much more. Yet as children become older, some lose some of their creativity. Instead, they look to teachers and parents for direction and approval, concerning themselves with “right” answers in-stead of appreciating the process by which they come to conclusions.

However, creative thinking is incred-ibly valuable and teaches children to enjoy learning for learning’s sake, which will generally result in a more successful student. How can you en-courage your child to think creatively? Here are several ideas:

Expose your child to a variety of creative people. Take your child to “open mic” night at the coffee shop or to a local art gallery to watch an art-ist sculpt or paint. Showing your child

RIDGEWOOD, NJ (Grassroots Newswire) March 12, 2012 — As your student be-comes increasingly independent in school and his or her homework becomes more diffi cult and involved, perhaps you’ve wondered how your role in homework time should evolve, too.

“Many parents are uncertain about how much they should help their children with homework, or feel that they’re unable to assist them appropriately,” says Heather Ottogali of the Ridgewood Huntington Learning Center. “However, there are many simple things parents can do to help their children without overstepping their role.”

Ottogali offers these tips to help your child during homework time:Help establish an organizational system and homework spot. From an early

age, teach your child to keep an organized homework space or desk equipped with the supplies he or she needs. Encourage your child to tidy up this space at the end of every homework session so it is always easy to dive into homework quickly.

Work on a homework routine. Establish homework time as an important part of your child’s nightly schedule and help him or her manage his or her study time wisely. Be supportive of the homework routine, too. Don’t watch television while your child tries to study at the kitchen table or be unavailable for questions during your young student’s homework hour.

Be on hand for questions. Even at an older age, your child may need help in-terpreting homework directions or want feedback on his or her work. Effective parental monitoring requires understanding your child, too. The self-starter who understands class work easily may need less hand-holding, while a child who is less responsible about homework may have many questions and need extra sup-port in becoming an independent student.

Teach problem-solving. No matter the subject, if a student knows how to think critically, identifi es areas where he or she doesn’t understand something, and breaks down complex problems or tasks into simpler ones, homework time will be a much more gratifying process. Help your child think through homework by asking questions and having him or her explain concepts or problems to you.

Give positive, specifi c feedback. Let your child know the value you place on school and homework, and celebrate his or her milestones and successes. Com-pliment hard work. Point out a job well done, a clean desk, the acquisition of a new skill. Frequent encouragement is important to build students’ self-esteem and work ethic.

the many different types of things he or she can do - from art to music, from science to writing - and introducing him or her to people who enjoy and excel at those things will encourage him or her to attempt new undertakings.

Let your child experiment. What-ever the activity, let your child be his or her own guide. Let your budding cook make up recipes in the kitchen. Offer tools and supplies, and let your child create whatever he or she can imagine.

Offer quiet time. From a young age, set aside free time each day for your child to play independently - doing whatever he or she chooses. Better yet, designate quiet time as a family activity.

Try games or activities that teach problem-solving. Games like chess, Battleship and Risk teach creativity and strategy, showing children how to consider multiple scenarios, weigh pros and cons, and debate different ideas.

Ask why. When your child asks you to double-check his or her work, have him

or her explain how he or she arrived at the answer, step by step. When your child shares an idea or opinion, ask why. How did he or she develop that opinion? Why does he or she feel dif-ferently than you or a friend? Why is this important to him or her?

Fostering creativity in your child leads to many important benefi ts. Your curious learner is more likely to challenge him or herself, learn from his or her mistakes, question as-sumptions and think critically. Such skills will help your child grow into an independent student and a lifelong learner.
