This Just In: It's official! CABOCES will be hosting the largest Southern Tier Lego League Tournament ever on Saturday, November 19 at Houghton College. See flyer for details. First Lego League, a world-wide robotics program, was founded in 1989 to inspire young people's interest and participation in Science and Technology. Each year a new program is designed to motivate kids to get excited about research, engineering, math and problem solving, while building self confidence, knowledge and life skills.
Exposing children to music and art leads to a deeper understanding of content. It’s a natural connection for teachers to offer their students.
CABOCES hosted the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra and an audience of more than 1500 elementary students and teachers for 2 unique concerts at the Olean High School on September 27. The BPO kicks off their Student Concert Series each year by transporting a 60 piece orchestra to the Southern Tier. This was a wonderful opportunity to inspire Kindergarten through Fifth grade students and enhance the ELA, Literacy, Social Studies and Art Standards that are being taught in the classroom. The BPO Education department masterfully linked their performances to the Common Core Standards. Both concerts combined not only a variety of musical selections, but also story-telling and active audience participation. It was more than just a concert, it was an educational show that tied in elementary curriculum with music. Mr. Stefan Sanders, conductor for the BPO, embraced the idea that musical story telling is a valuable tool that fosters greater understanding of student learning objectives. To ensure a strong foundation for Feel the Music! (grades K-2) and Selfies: Musical Portraits (grades 3-5), the BPO Education Department supplied teachers with curriculum lessons for use in the classroom. Thank you to Wellsville, Hinsdale, Franklinville and Olean school districts for allowing their students to attend and promoting the arts in their education. CABOCES Arts in Education helps schools enrich the lives of their students by providing opportunities to experience the performing arts. If the concept of music as education piques your interest, please call Student Programs at CABOCES 716-376-8284 to find out more about Arts In Education, CoSer 403. By: Jean Oliverio, CA BOCES Student Programming Learning new information was difficult for Melvin the Monster. Melvin’s friends and family showed him how they learn new things by using art, math, sports, music, and encouragement from each other.
Puppetmasters David and Amy, also known as Up In Arms, combined a cast of 10 friendly, colorful monsters, humor and original songs from rock, to classical, jazz, pop, and Broadway standards to teach Melvin and the young audience about learning styles and self confidence. Almost 2000 students (PreK- 2nd graders) from schools across Cattaraugus and Allegany Counties learned valuable lessons for school and life. Genesee Valley, Cattaraugus-Little Valley and Arcade Elementary opened their auditoriums to host these performances. Monster Intelligence marked the sixth and final performance of the school year contracted by BOCES. BOCES Arts-In-Education helps schools enrich the lives of their students by providing opportunities to experience the performing arts. TheatreWorks USA is a professional acting company based out of New York City. It is America’s largest and most prolific professional theatre for young audiences. For more information about bringing TheatreWorks shows to your area, contact Student Programs at 716-376-8284. By: Jean Oliverio, CA BOCES Student Programs Tenth graders from Andover, Belfast, Bolivar-Richburg, Cuba-Rushford, Fillmore, Portville, Scio, and Wellsville explored careers at Alfred State College. Over 40 businesses shared about careers in Allegany County. Student spent the day answering the question, "What's my next step?" The Scholastic Challenge Competition will be held this Saturday, February 6 at Portville Central School. This annual event, sponsored by Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES, will host a total of 41 teams who will compete in a Junior Division and Senior Division, for grades 6-12.
Scholastic Challenge is a fast paced contest that tests knowledge of academic trivia. Teams of four students will measure their ability to recall details from a wide variety of topics. Fourteen school districts will be participating in the double-elimination contest this year. This translates to about 250 students and coaches. Throughout the day, several thousand questions will be read aloud to these ambitious teams. Spectators are encouraged to watch the competitions. It’s exciting to see the students combine an impressive display of intelligence with camaraderie, graciousness and good sportsmanship. The final matches will be held on stage in the Portville auditorium around 2:15-3:15 (these are approximate times). The first and second place teams in each division will be presented with plaques to recognize their achievements. This event requires about 40 volunteers to make the day run smoothly. CABOCES Student Programs is grateful to everyone who donates their time and experience to provide a fun and educational day for the students in our area. Scholastic Challenge could not happen without their help! The following school districts will be attending: Hinsdale Central-2 teams coached by Kate Jedrosko Cuba-Rushford - 4 teams coached by John Butler Ellicottville Central - 3 teams coached by Ann Chamberlain Fillmore Central – 2 teams coached by Deb Woltag & Bill Kelley Franklinville Central - 3 teams coached by Shannon Wood Friendship Central - 1 team coached by Wade Pearsall Genesee Valley - 4 teams coached by Rollie Duttweiler & Sara Donlon Olean High- 1 teams coached by Carolyn Shields Pioneer Central -4 teams coached by Sarah Wood Portville Central - 8 teams coached by Margaret Seib & Gene Rogers Randolph Central-1 team coached by Jennifer Bieniek Scio Central - 3 teams coached by Mary Zdrojewski Wellsville Central - 2 teams coached by Diane Willard West Valley Central - 3 teams coached by Ryan Keem Students benefit from an author visit in many ways. Not only does it bring a real person’s voice and face as the creator behind a story, but an author is able to share where ideas originate from, the research process, the writing process, and essentially let students know that they too can take part in the creative process of writing.
Wellsville’s seventhth grade ELA teacher, Amy Hunt, and school librarian, Shannon Whiteside, brought Newbery Award winning author Linda Sue Park to approximately 100 students via video conference on Friday, January 22nd. Through the Arts in Education COSER 403, author visits are affordable whether in person or online. Hunt’s seventh graders recently read Park’s A Long Walk to Water which is based on the true story of a Sudanese boy’s experience with war and a refugee camp who eventually found solace in the Rochester, NY area. Filled with adventure and hardship, A Long Walk to Water introduces readers to one boy’s personal struggle to survive and the reality that water is a precious commodity. Not only do readers experience empathy as they read this book but experience the main character’s success when he returns to Sudan as an adult to help establish water wells for remote villages. After Park shared her writing process, nine students were able to ask questions. One student asked, “What interested you in writing?” Park’s response was, “to see a white rectangle covered with black squiggly lines and realize how those squiggles can make someone laugh, cry, or be inspired is such power. What power to make people feel!” When asked how difficult it was to include the details in her book, Park shared that she had re-written the story seventeen times. With a giggle, she told students, “I like to play video games so I think of writing like leveling up”. Interested in bring an author to your school?

By: Cece Fuoco, CA BOCES School Library Coordinator TheatreWorksUSA’s talented cast performed, Miss Nelson Is Missing, based on the book series by Harry Allard this week. More than 1700 second and third graders from schools across Cattaraugus and Allegany Counties learned valuable lessons for school and life. The rowdy students and the witchy substitute teacher, Miss Viola Swamp, sang and danced their way through the school day. The engaging cast even asked the student audience for help in trying to figure out how to get Miss Nelson back to school.
Bolivar-Richburg, Franklinville and Arcade Elementary opened their auditoriums to host these performances. Teachers prepared their students well by utilizing the classroom activities provided by TheatreWorks USA. The pre and post show teaching tools supplement the teachers’ curriculum goals. Miss Nelson Is Missing marked the fourth performance of the school year contracted by BOCES.

By: Jean Oliverio, CA BOCES Student Programs “When you read, every day is an adventure.” -Page Turner and her slapstick sidekick, Kenny, a former Ringling Bros. clown About 1800 fourth and fifth graders from schools across Cattaraugus and Allegany Counties attended TheatreWorks USA’s production of Steam Trunk Circus last week. Genesee Valley, Olean High School and Arcade Elementary opened their auditoriums to host these performances.
Steam Trunk Circus marked the first performance of the school year contracted by BOCES. BOCES Arts-In-Education helps schools enrich the lives of their K-5th grade students by providing opportunities to experience the performing arts. Teachers received Storyologist Handbooks filled with classroom activities to supplement their Language Arts curriculum goals. The performers made the audience become the heroes of the story by tasking them to solve problems and infer and predict by paying attention to clues. An old trunk, a mysterious book and Harry Houdini’s hat set the tale in motion. The audience willingly did this, laughing all the way at Kenny’s comedic antics. Thanks to Page Turner and Kenny Mikey, there are now 1800 new, official Storyologists in the Southern Tier who are ready to collect, tell and write their own stories. Page Turner Adventures, from Florida, has teamed up with TheatreWorks USA, a professional acting company based out of New York City.

By: Jean Oliverio, CA BOCES Student Programming At our September faculty meeting, each CA BOCES Itinerant teacher received a copy of the book Explicit Direct Instruction: The Power of the Well-Crafted, Well-Taught Lesson by John Hollingsworth and Silvia Ybarra. Explicit Direct Instruction, or EDI, is a strategic collection of instructional practices combined together to design and deliver well-crafted lessons that explicitly teach content, especially grade level content, to all students. The Itinerants will begin their EDI journey by implementing the strategy ‘Checking for Understanding’ in their classrooms. Checking for understanding means you are continually verifying that students are learning while they are being taught. EDI uses the acronym TAPPLE to help remember all of the steps involved. Teach First Ask a Question Pause Pick a Non-Volunteer Listen to the Response Effective Feedback
You can learn more about the research behind EDI and tap into some of their resources by visiting the website: http://dataworks-ed.com/ By: Mary Morris, CA BOCES Student Programming Whether they were participating in Driver’s Education or attending Summer School at one of the three CA BOCES sites, many of our students found themselves engaged in learning over the summer. The numbers can speak for themselves. At the Salamanca Summer School site, we had 254 students enrolled in classes and 341 students registered to take one of the August Regents Exams. At the Wellsville Summer School site, we had 195 students enrolled in classes and 188 students registered to take one of the August Regents Exams. At the Cuba Summer School site, we had 83 students enrolled in classes and 95 students registered to take one of the August Regents Exams. Driver’s Education instructor’s operated out of 15 district sites and helped 377 students learn the rules of the road.
We would like to thank all of the Summer School teachers and Driver’s Education instructors for their desire and dedication in helping all of our students fulfill their academic obligations. Please contact us if you have any questions or need future assistance. We are always striving to make our summer student programs the best that they can be! This Spring, more than 2000 area students attending the TheaterWorks USA musical performance, “Teacher From the Black Lagoon and other Stories.” The New York City based Theater Troupe, brought in by Cattaraugus Allegany BOCES, on behalf of area districts, spent three days in our region performing for elementary students. Genesee Valley Central School, Cattaraugus Little Valley Central School and Arcade Elementary in the Pioneer School district hosted the performances. Five performers and the Director enjoyed their time in our region and said that our students were great audiences!
(Randolph, New York) – On Saturday, March 14, 2015, 49 teams from across the Southern Tier will be showcasing their creativity during the Odyssey of the Mind Regional competition. Odyssey of the Mind is a world-wide creative problem-solving tournament that promotes original and divergent thinking as a team sport. Divergent problems, that is, those with more than one solution, encourage students to learn and lead the way using 21st century skills. By working in teams of up to seven members, participants learn teamwork, the appreciation and understanding of others, and the concept that a group is a more powerful thinking force than an individual. Randolph Central School will be hosting more than 300 creative kids aged ten through eighteen years old, who will be showing off their brain power in this high-energy tournament. The winners, who will be announced at the end of the day, will represent Region 19 at the New York State Tournament at Binghamton University on April 11 and possibly World Finals at Michigan State University on May 20-23. Teams from 14 area school districts have worked hard to come up with 8 minute solutions to one of these five mind-bending problems posed by Odyssey of the Mind: Problem 1: Runaway 'Train' The team’s problem is to design, build and operate one or more vehicles that will travel on tracks and make stops at different stations without touching the floor. While traveling between stations, the vehicles must overcome obstacles —moving uphill, towing something, and more. The theme of the performance will explain the vehicle’s difficulties on the track and will include a ‘conductor’ character. Once the vehicle reaches its final destination it will display a flag or banner during a victory lap! Problem 2: Problem 2: Experiencing Technical Difficulties The problem is to design, build, and demonstrate various devices that complete specific tasks. The team will create a theme where technical failures must be resolved through completing the tasks. There will be a list of tasks to choose from including ring a bell, change the wording on something, sound an alarm, move an object, etc. There will also be a mysterious engineer character. Of course, there’s a twist — all of the devices must be powered by rubber bands! Problem 3: Problem 3: Pandora’s Box In this classics problem, teams will put a video game spin on the story of Pandora’s Box. A gamer character will take on this multi-level game inspired by the Greek myth. The game will include a prologue that depicts the original story of Pandora’s Box, three characters representing different evils that escaped the box, and a power meter that represents the gamer character’s health. To beat the game, the player will advance to the final level where it will release hope into the world. Problem 4: Problem 4: Lose Your Marbles This problem requires teams to design, build, and test a structure, made only of balsa wood and glue, that will balance and support as much weight as possible. The structure will also hold five marbles that will be released during weight placement as a result of a team-created device removing a piece of the structure. After the crusher board and one additional weight are placed on top of the structure, the first marble will be released. After the next weight is supported, the team will use its device to release another marble, and so on. The team will incorporate weight placement and “losing your marbles” into the theme of the performance. Problem 5: Problem 5: Silent Movie Lights, camera...action! In this problem teams will create and present a performance depicting a Director character that produces and presents a silent movie featuring a humorous villain character that commits three silly acts of “villainy”. Characters that are in the movie may not speak as part of the presentation of the movie. Instead, like classic silent films, the team will use music played on a team-created instrument and creatively displayed subtitles to convey its story to the audience and judges. Also, teams will use a signal to indicate when the movie begins and ends. Students have spent months of their free time solving these problems as well as developing teamwork skills, independent study, friendships, confidence, all while improving their brainstorming and problem-solving techniques. They learn new things and utilize their individual strengths to solve the problem. Teams also learn how to budget money since there is a cost limit to each problem. Throughout the day, one will witness imaginative costumes, elaborate props, dances, original songs and poetry, creative writing and much more. Not only do the participants compete within their chosen problem, but teams must also perform well in a “spontaneous problem”, where they solve a new problem on the spot. They must be creative, quick thinking and work well together as a team. Spectators are welcome to join in the excitement of the day. CABOCES is still recruiting volunteers. No prior experience is needed and training will be provided. Anyone interested in getting involved is encouraged to call (716) 376-8284. Saturday, March 14 is the culmination of many months of work from students, coaches, parents and judges who all work together with the common goal of expressing creativity, supporting the arts and learning new things in a fun environment. The tournament starts at 8:30 and continues throughout the day. The Awards Ceremony begins around 3:15. Thousands of teams from throughout the United States and 25 other countries participate in this program.

Saturday, February 7, 2015 @ Portville Central School The largest Scholastic Challenge Competition was held on Saturday, February 7 at Portville Central School. This annual event, sponsored by Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES, hosted a record total of 49 teams who competed in a Junior Division and Senior Division, for grades 6-12. Scholastic Challenge is a fast-paced contest that tests knowledge of academic trivia. Teams of three students measure their ability to recall details from a wide variety of topics. Thirteen school districts participated in the double-elimination contest this year. This translates to more than 200 students and coaches. Throughout the day, several thousand questions were read aloud to these ambitious teams. All the teams represented their schools well, combining an impressive display of intelligence with camaraderie, graciousness and good sportsmanship that was admirable. Competitors and coaches represented the following school districts: Allegany-Limestone-1 team coached by Kathy Schaeper Hinsdale Central-4 teams coached by Kate Jedrosko Cuba-Rushford - 6 teams coached by John Butler Ellicottville Central - 4 teams coached by Ann Chamberlain Fillmore Central – 2 teams coached by Deb Woltag & Bill Kelley Friendship Central - 1 team coached by Wade Pearsall Genesee Valley - 6 teams coached by Rollie Duttweiler & Sara Donlon Olean High- 2 teams coached by Carolyn Shields Pioneer Central -5 teams coached by Sarah Wood & Jimmy Wood Portville Central - 9 teams coached by Margaret Seib & Gene Rogers Randolph Central- 1 team coached by Jennifer Bieniek Wellsville Central - 3 teams coached by Diane Willard & Hope Gilfert West Valley Central - 5 teams coached by Ryan Keem There were two impressive teams who were undefeated going into the Finals in the auditorium. Congratulations to the Fillmore Green Junior team and the Pioneer Starfleet Academy Senior team! The final matches were held on stage in the Portville auditorium. As usual, the finalists were challenged to answer questions on current events and local facts. The first and second place teams in each division were presented with plaques to recognize their achievements. All four of the Finalist teams have earned the honor of being invited to the 2015 National Academic Championship. This event requires about 50 volunteers to make the day run smoothly. CABOCES Student Programs is grateful to everyone who donated their time and experience to provide a fun and educational day for the students in our area. Scholastic Challenge could not happen without their help!
Congratulations to all the teams and their proud coaches on a job well done. We look forward to seeing everyone back next year! By: Jean Oliverio, CA BOCES This is the question on the minds of Lego League teams this fall. The 2014-2015 Lego League Challenge is World Class-Learning Unleashed. Students will redesign how knowledge and skills are gathered in the 21st century. Teams will teach adults about the ways that kids need and want to learn. Get ready for a whole new class, World Class. Teams have been hard at work since the school year began to prepare for the Southern Tier Lego League Tournament on Saturday, November 22, 2014 at Houghton College. It's exciting to see the program continue to grow in our region and new schools have formed teams this season. First Lego League, a world-wide robotics program, was founded in 1989 to inspire young people's interest and participation in Science and Technology. Each year a new program is designed to motivate kids to get excited about research, engineering, math and problem solving, while building self confidence, knowledge and life skills. The Nielsen Phys. Ed building at Houghton College is the place to be this Saturday to see about a hundred 9-14 year old students, their coaches and families, and over 3 dozen volunteers discover innovative ways to explore robotics while having fun! Please call or email BOCES Student Programs at 716-376-8284 if you'd like more information. Also, check out this link: firstlegoleague.org/challenge/2014fllworldclass. Times are approximate: Opening Ceremony - 12:15 - 12:30 Competition Rounds - 12:30 - 2:15 Alliance Round - 2:15 - 3:00 Awards Presentation & Closing Ceremonies - 3:00 - 3:30 The mantra of the program is always its’ Core Values, which are as follows:
The Wellsville Campus of Alfred State College was the place to be on April 2, 2014 from 9:00-1:00. Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES offered the 3rd Annual College and Career Readiness Fair for more than 325 Allegany County teenagers. Immediately afterwards, the Greater Allegany County Chamber of Commerce began their Business Conference, concluding at 5:00.
The Career Day Planning Committee worked for a full year to develop a great opportunity for Allegany County students to explore their future, discover their passions and set potential goals. All details of the day, from student and exhibitor registration to pre-event activities, were available at lifeready.weebly.com. The dynamic and user-friendly website was the main vehicle of communication between CABOCES and students, guidance counselors, and businesses. The 2014 event shaped up to be bigger and better than last year, with an even more robust lineup of speakers. The Planning Committee was honored to introduce Scio native, Michael Kintner (360heros.com), as Keynote Speaker to address the students. The Career Fair website details the impressive lineup of all the successful professionals committed to connecting with the youth of Allegany County. Allegany County teenagers from 9 different school districts participated in the Fair. Participants transitioned through 3 interactive areas (Career Conversations, Career Playground and the Career and Community Exhibitors) while on campus. Students prepared for the day by identifying a Career Cluster that interested them. Careers can be categorized into six main clusters, see the Fair website for more details. Each Career Cluster was identified at the Fair. Students were guided to learn from experts from each Career Cluster. Based on students' individual interests, they were given a personalized schedule to ensure they got the most out of their day. Students were encouraged to get their hands dirty, drive a backhoe, take a Culinary Arts lesson, speak with professionals from local businesses, and Skype with successful business people from across the country. The day offered something for everyone, in a rich, hands-on way. Thank you to Andover, Belfast, Bolivar-Richburg, Cuba-Rushford, Elm Street Academy, Fillmore, Portville, Scio, Wellsville School Districts for allowing their students to attend and inspiring them to dream and set goals for a bright future. The date for next year’s event will be Thursday, April 9, 2015.
