Kristen Robbins. Julie Harmon. Tonya Scott. Holli Mollis, and Brad Smith make their Hal- loween parade through the school- Children Learn by Doing Children learn by doing, and for this reason the first grade teachers set up in their rooms several centers where materials were provided for the children to discover more about many of the important concepts they were taught in first grade. In Mrs. Reid ' s room there were an aquarium and a few gerbils for the first graders to watch, learn about, and sign out for weekends in their homes. Through science, first graders learned much about the world around them. These youngsters had many fun experi- ences wearing costumes in plays and parades. At Halloween every first grader dressed up into whatever he or she wanted to be, and then they all paraded around the school grounds and in the halls. Pumpkins, goblins, witches, monsters, and butterflies of all kinds roamed Oneonta School that day. They gained even more new experiences through murals, puppet shows, skits, games, and plays.

Mrs. Daily ' s desire was to give her students an expressive experience that would be exciting and different and would get the school year started in a unique way. They did this the first day of school. First of all. Mrs. Daily had planned to just make instant chocolate pudding; in talking about what they were going to do, one student had said he knew of someone who had finger painted with chocolate pudding for a Bible school group. Mrs. Daily decided to try to paint with pudding. The students loved it. First graders are marvelously expressive. They love to act and role-play. The first grade reading program teaches this in daily reading. Mrs. Daily had always tried to imprint upon her students that Christmas is something more than Santa Claus, so as usual, her class did a play about Mary and Joseph. Every student had a chance to play every part. Connie Richards Benny Richardson
