Whether kids watch sports games in ball parks, arenas, or on TV, they have opportunities for learning much that can positively affect school and lifelong achievement Mathematical concepts related to scoring such as football yardages, baseball averages, and bowling scores, and spatial skills that come from sports activities, are automatically learned by observation This is especially important for girls who tend to have more problems with mathematics and spatial abilities

Hopefully, children are learning the rules of good sportsmanship vicariously as they watch the attitudes of their parents or professional players when they are victorious or when they lose I emphasize "hopefully" because, unfortunately, some professional and college players, and even some parents model, just the opposite The same can be said about sports figures who serve as role

models Although some encourage children to achieve, others are role models for magical thinking

and even immoral behavior Still others promote very expensive shoes and clothes the kids think

they "can't live without." Parents should help children interpret appropriate attitudes and

sportsmanship

Viewing games together often facilitates the emotional bonding of sons with their dads, which is especially important for developing male self- confidence When boys have poor social skills, I

often recommend that they watch some sports on TV It permits them to learn the sports language

that allows spontaneous conversation and acceptance by other boys Although I don't expect all kids

to develop enthusiasm for sports, a few choice words and scores eases them into comfortable acceptance by other kids

Professor Stephen William Hawking was born on 8th January 1942 (exactly 300 years after the death of Galileo) in Oxford, England His parents' house was in north London but during the second world war Oxford was considered a safer place to have babies When he was eight his family moved

to St Albans, a town about 20 miles north of London At the age of eleven, Stephen went to St Albans School and then on to University College, Oxford (1952); his father's old college Stephen wanted to study mathematics although his father would have preferred medicine

Mathematics was not available at University College, so he pursued physics instead After three

years and not very much work, he was awarded a first class honours degree in natural science

Professor Stephen Hawking worked on the basic laws which govern the universe With Roger

Penrose he showed that Einstein's general theory of relativity implied space and time would have a

beginning in the Big Bang and an end in black holes (1970) These results indicated that it was necessary to unify general relativity with quantum theory, the other great scientific development of the first half of the 20th century One consequence of such a unification that he discovered was that black holes should not be completely black, but rather should emit 'Hawking' radiation and

eventually evaporate and disappear (1974) Another conjecture is that the universe has no edge or

boundary in imaginary time This would imply that the way the universe began was completely determined by the laws of science Stephen worked with colleagues on a possible resolution to the black hole information paradox, where debate centres around the conservation of information

Professor Stephen Hawking had thirteen honorary degrees He was awarded CBE (1982), Companion of Honour (1989) and the Presidential Medal of Freedom (2009) He is the recipient of many awards, medals and prizes, most notably the Fundamental Physics prize (2013), Copley Medal (2006) and the Wolf Foundation prize (1988) He is a Fellow of the Royal Society and a member

of the US National Academy of Sciences and the Pontifical Academy of Sciences

In 1963 Stephen was diagnosed with ALS, a form of Motor Neurone Disease, shortly after his 21st birthday In spite of being wheelchair-bound and dependent on a computerised voice system for communication Stephen continues to combine family life (he had three children and three grandchildren) with his research into theoretical physics, in addition to an extensive programme of travel and public lectures He hoped to make it into space one day He died on March 14th 2018
