Hand From computers to typewriters to darkrooms, the students at P.A. got plenty of hands on experience. ln the kindergarten, every Wednesday was cooking day. Wilson Brewer said, I liked learning about food because we got to eat it! ln the third grade, Mrs. Nancy Massey's class got more than their share of hands on experience. Hatching chickens and building bird feeders and feely boxes were just a few. .Iason Reed, who was in the class, said, We had an incubator and chicks hatched out. We had one named 'Rocky' that got hurt, he didn't die though. lt was neat! Brittany Brosh, also a third grader, made bird feeders. She said, lt was icky because we had to get peanut butter on our hands. rf Another project the class undertook was feely boxes for the blind school. Hunter Beaumont said, We put nuts, fruits, material and things from outside in them. lt was fun, I guess, but our teacher took over too much. lnjournalism, the students had a chance to use a ,darkroom and a typesetting computer. Larry Trussell, a staff photographer, said, Developing pictures isn't hard, it's just time consuming. Chris Craig, spent most of his time setting type. I like setting type better than writing, said Chris. For me it's easier to type what someone else has written than to think up the ideas by myself.

Hands ln psychologyfsociology the class was allowed to experiment with a lie detector. Gary Gingrich, who was in the class, said, Paul, who was the experiementee, was embarrassed, but it wasn't too bad because he had his back to the class. Another form of hands on experience was in the business classes like typing. Although it might not be apparent, typing did take skill. While some students took a whole period for one page, Katherine Blackmon could whip out five. Katherine said, l learned when l was real little when I typed on my daddy's typewriter. ln the art department Mrs. Kit Faulk tried to drill into her left brained students how to draw with the right side of their brains. Not an easy process. But most students enjoyed her class, like Jeanne Vogel, who said, You just never know what to expect. Although it took many forms-making feely boxes and bird feeders, playing doctor, decorating trees, taking lie detector tests, making butter and raising chickens- students of all ages enjoyed a break from books.
