By SCOTT KEITH S ome of us simply can’t stand math. Yet others seem to be human calculators, so good at math that they are able to work through complicated number formulas with ease. While some public school students struggle with their multiplication and division, others need more of a math challenge from their teachers. An instructor in the Beaverton area knows we’re all different when it comes to learning math and reading. Marga Bailey works at Kumon at Progress Ridge TownSquare in Beaverton. Kumon was founded in 1954 in Japan by a math teacher. The Kumon program (385 students at Progress Ridge) helps both remedial students and students who need a greater challenge. The program, which serves youngsters from three years of age to 18, complements traditional school. “Public schools use more of a conceptual math program. Kumon is a traditional math, that’s a world-wide math,” Bailey said. “Colleges teach universal, world-wide traditional math. Our schools don’t always do that, so the kids will be much better prepared for college if they have both.” The Kumon program (available in 47 countries), helps with math and reading and is based on ability. “We’re looking at their skill level, where they’re comfortable. We’re not looking at whether they’re a fourth, second or a sixth grader,” Bailey mentioned. “Most students (in school) are working at a different level. They’re maybe struggling in school a little bit. So their actual foundation skills are pretty weak,” Bailey said. “We have to get those solid before they can work independently above grade level. The other piece of Kumon is independence – learning how to learn on your own.” Worksheets are critical in the Kumon program. There’s a complete curriculum from pre-school levels to college calculus. “I don’t teach. I facilitate the worksheets (for reading and math). The teaching is ac- RED HOT BUY YOUR CHOICE SM 5994 Save $ $9.99-$11.99 Value Kumon, the largest after-school math and reading academic enrichment program, welcomes new students at Progress Ridge. 5 off * 9101486, 9101494 your next purchase of $20 or more Hurry in, offer ends November 30, 2012!

They learn from example, they learn from practicing — they also learn how to think about what the next little step is, rather than wait for me to show it to them,” Bailey said. Kumon is a confidence builder for youngsters. “Too many kids don’t have the confidence in math (or reading) — with Kumon, they get to that confidence level,” Bailey said. Bailey, whose background is special education, has been a Kumon instructor for 15 years. She said most parents want the best for their kids. “They want their child to do well. That’s the one thing I love about Kumon. I haven’t ever had a student that didn’t do well,” Bailey said. “I love it. That’s why I do it.

Relatives and in-laws are sometimes erratic, sometimes the eggnog is spiked a few thimbles too much and 20 pound turkeys don’t just cook themselves. But don’t worry — the deli at New Seasons Market is here to help. Just in time for Thanksgiving, the deli will be rolling out hand-made appetizers, entrées and full dinner packages that will please your pickiest eater and relative with SUBMITTED PHOTO New Seasons Market can provide you with a traditional Thanksgiving feast. “I think a lot of people find us for the first time at the holidays and then they become regular shoppers. There is something about restaurant people that whenever we are pressed, we seem to shine.” — Ronnie MacQuarrie, Progress Ridge Chef a gluten allergy. Progress Ridge Chef Ronnie MacQuarrie and her team are making magic in the kitchen. MacQuarrie has more than 20 years of cooking experience and about seven years experience with New Seasons Market under her apron. “Food has just always been a big part of my life,” she said. “I really enjoy my job here. It’s a fantastic place to work and we get to work with great product.” The California native studied at the New England Culinary Institute. While working in San Francisco, she visited Portland, fell in love, and immediately moved to the city she now calls home. MacQuarrie said New Seasons Market at Progress Ridge is gearing up for the busiest time of year. “I think a lot of people find us for the first time at the holidays and then they become regular shoppers,” she said. “There is something about restaurant people that whenever we are pressed, we seem to shine.” The deli’s grab-and-go case will feature a variety of baked bries, artichoke dip, caramelized shallot dip, clam dip, smoked salmon spreads and more. Side dishes include a variety of orange glazed yams, roasted root vegetables, brussels sprouts, buttermilk mashed potatoes, green beans with wild mushrooms, potato sage rolls, scalloped potatoes, quinoa mushroom stuffing, cornbread stuffing, savory bread stuffing, soup, gravy, cranberry sauce and more. “The side dish package is really popular,” MacQuarrie said. ”It kind of takes some of the stress out of the holiday.” Less experienced cooks or those just rushed for time, may also choose from a menu of packaged dinners. A traditional turkey package dinner feeds four to six, or eight to 10 people, and includes a choice of stuffing, vegetables, pumpkin pie, dinner rolls and a precooked Diestel turkey which takes about two to three hours finished baking time at home. The turkey dinner for two package includes a choice of stuffing and vegetables, roasted butternut squash soup, rolls, turkey gravy and cranberry sauce, a stuffed Diestel turkey breast chop and vanilla poached pear and almond tarts. The gluten free dinner package (items can be purchased separately) feeds four to six people and includes a Diestel turkey, quinoa stuffing with mushrooms and kale, buttermilk mashed potatoes, vegetables, turkey gravy, gluten free corn bread muffins and gluten-free pumpkin cheesecake. The spiral sliced ham dinner feeds six to eight people and includes 3-4 pounds of fully cooked, Beeler’s boneless spiral orange-glazed ham, butternut squash soup, scalloped potatoes, choice of two sides, cranberry sauce or apple chutney, rolls and a pumpkin pie. Ordering a delicious Thanksgiving feast — don’t forget dessert — is as easy as walking in the store or visiting New Seasons Market online. The holiday hot lines open now through Nov. 17. During that time frame, customers can make a reservation online or come into a storefront and place their order face-to-face at a “turkey table.” New Seasons Market will also offer a turkey hotline at 503-473-8695 where customers can discuss their reservation or ask a professional for tips and cooking advice. “We want people to get answers and feel more confident about their meal,” MacQuarrie said. Last minute shoppers need not worry. The deli case will be fully stocked and ready for last minute cancellations or mishaps in the kitchen. “We always make it to the end and try to have as many options available,” MacQuarrie said. “We don’t want to disappoint anyone on their holiday.” New Seasons Market at Progress Ridge is located at 14805 SW Barrows Road in Beaverton. The market is open daily from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. For more information, call 503-597-6777 or visit newseasonsmarket. com. etcetera... Turkey tips n Progress Ridge Chef Ronnie MacQuarrie encourages patrons to try the Turkey Brine Willamette Valley Chardonnay. The brine comes in a half gallon jug and combines untreated sea salt, bay leaves and black pepper. Brining the turkey gives it more flavor and keeps it moist, she said. MacQuarrie said the easiest way to brine the turkey is to place the bird in a food safety plastic bag, pour the brine over the turkey, seal it and then roast the turkey in a roasting pan until the brine gets to all parts of the turkey.

Dougherty examines Bailey, an 11-yearold chocolate Labrador at the Progress Ridge location. ets are no different than humans. As your animals age, they can develop conditions or diseases that demand prompt medical attention. Pets also face emergencies. It’s hard to think about it, but your cat could get hit by a car or your dog could ingest a harmful substance. In these situations, you want a pet hospital right around the corner. Since October, Banfield Pet Hospital at Progress Ridge TownSquare in Beaverton has been tending to the needs of our furry companions. Banfield Pet Hospital is a full-service clinic that offers a broad range of care for animals, including preventive care, routine dental cleanings and vaccines. According to veterinarian Sarah Dougherty, the clinic has two full-time veterinarians and four full-service exam rooms. Plans are to add a part-time vet in the weeks ahead. On any given day, a pet hospital faces a variety of scenarios. “Common things are a dog got into the trash, or the cat ate some string,” Dougherty said. More serious situations at her clinic may require X-ray and radiology equipment. “We have full digital X-ray.” Banfield Pet Hospital stresses preventive care. If you have just adopted a pet, doctors at the Progress Ridge clinic can give you valuable advice. “Preventive care is crucial in the loving of that pet,” Dougherty said. “It’s proven that preventive care, every year (or every six months), is crucial for extending the life and health of that pet.” Banfield Pet Hospital sells dog food that best suits each pet. When you bring your new pet to Banfield Pet Hospital, your doctor will be happy to discuss the importance of preventive care. They will provide exams, vaccines and checks for intestinal parasites and heart worm disease. While prevention is important, animals can develop diseases over a lifetime, some serious. These may include feline distemper, leukemia, kidney disease, dental disease and diabetes. Even obesity, a growing human problem, can strike your cat or dog. If you want to get a head start on preventive care, consider the Wellness Plan. It’s “a great way to package the preventive care that pet needs for the year — two full comprehensive exams a year, fecal testing, deworming, vaccines, baseline blood work,” Dougherty said, adding there are Wellness Plans for different stages in a pet’s life. Doctors at Banfield Pet Hospital help make the exam process a bit easier for animals. Like humans, animals get jittery during the examination process. Owners, if they choose, can ease the stress by joining their pets in the exam room. “They (pets) definitely do get nervous, but we are well accustomed to that. We definitely help accommodate each pet (and family member),” Dougherty pointed out. Leaving the clinic, you may notice the many pet-friendly products that line the wall including: veterinarian prescription diets, products for preventive dental care, skin care products and pill pockets (to help hide your pet’s pills). There’s also a kid’s corner for your youngsters to keep them entertained while your pets are being examined. At Banfield Pet Hospital, it’s all about the doctor-client partnership. “We definitely try to partner with the clients to provide the best care that we can for the pet,” Dougherty said.
