JUNIOR HIGH Front row: Lynn Osborne, David Coombs, Dee Ann Rath, Charles Rydstrom Second row: Mrs. McCabe, Robert Wilt, David Smith, Richard Rydstrom, Mr. Thiemen FAIRVIEW JUNIOR HIGH ACTIVITIES In Junior High we are changing from grade school to high school. Along with this we must as- sume more responsibilities and make changes in our study habits. We have seven subjects to pre- pare for each day. Our activities include physical education class twice a week, music classes every day, some of us have instrumental lessons once a week and art class once a week. During the Winter months, the boys play several basketball games with other Junior Highs. We also take part in presenting pro- grams for community meetings. We find Junior High fun, although it involves h-ard work. FAIRVIEW MUSIC ACTIVITIES Music classes include singing in unison and in parts. To help us in sight reading and in rhythm we use syllables and counting. Our musical games such as Baseball and Fine, are a help in learning the musical symbols. Listening to different types of music by record helps to give the student an appreciation of the classics. Further rhythm training is achieved by folk daglices, square dances and the simple action rec- or s. 'Pupils are given the opportunity various times :luring the school year to perform, either by solo or in a group.

Goodman, Steven Volt, Miss Essman KINDERGARTEN ACTIVITIES In kindergarten we learn many new things. At first we learn our colors by using colored name tags and colored circles on each table. Each month We sat at a different table with a different colored circle. We learned to Write our numbers up to ten. In the first semester we learned to count to five. In the second semester we finished counting to ten. To learn our alphabet we made a book con- taining pictures Which we put in alphabetical order. Also during the year we learned to tie our shoes and write our first and last name. We learn- ed numerous songs and finger plays, also acted out stories. We colored and painted many different things for art. Also we had different units on families, pets, holidays, toys, winter, and farms. Part of our learning is to share and get along with our family and playmates. ' One of our biggest thrills was having our mothers at our Christmas party. er, I, 3: .1i,w,-. .Q ffl rj 'P 5 - 1 K RD 14I3t'.,if "" Vvfwf' l -5 -. if Sf .

Correct usage of words and improving our man- ners are being stressed in our language classes. In social studies, the fifth grade has increased their knowledge of our 50 states by learning the location, the correct spelling, and the capitals of each state. Also each pupil was assigned either five or six states to write reports on. In both health-classes, each pupil is to make up a crossword puzzle over material covered in the book. One of the events enjoyed by the pupils was the community meeting in January, at which time they presented two plays, "The Hill Billy Wed- ding" and "The Little Red Schoolhouse." FAIRVIEW THIRD AND FOURTH GRADE ACTIVITIES Arithmetic classes find the third grade learn- ing to carry and borrow, and the fourth grade learning multiplication and division processes. Reading time is fun and busy. Looking up new words and learning their meanings, learning and reviewing phonics rules, dramatizing stories, and reading orally with expression take up our time. We also enjoy Weekly Readers. Social Studies is quite different for the two grades. fI'he third grade reads and learns of our community and others like it, while the fourth grade begins history of our country and map study. t Science offers experiments for us to eagerly ry. I .We hope that by working in groups and in- dnndually the best in each child may be brought ou .
