Grammar Student Practices Diagramming To llc- Or Not To Be -Shakespeare-'s HAMLET Translated the sentence reads I'his is a Class of Spanish. Students Learned tht Four languages were offered to students this yearg three foreign, and English which is required of all students. The three foreign languages were French, Latin, and Spanish. Public speaking, creative writing, grammar, letter writ- ing, and many other divisions of language were covered in the classes. Today, amid the wonders of engineering achievement and the miracles of scientific discovery, we are prone to forget that no miracle in science surpasses the miracle of Language. With it we record the Truth of our thoughts and communicate the Beauty of our emotions. lt was the English Poet, John Keats, who wrote: Beauty is Truth, truth beautyf, that is all Ye know on earth and all ye need to know The language teacher is concerned with training the mind in the habits of accuracy in thinking, of clarity -and ef- fectiveness in oral and written communication. Since lan- guage is rather caught than taught the problem of clear thinking and effective communication through language becomes the responsibility of every teacher and student within and without the school. This responsibility remains until better thinking and communication in the English Language especially, is practiced by all. ,.

Social tuclies Program Preparec The term social studies came into general use during the nineteen twenties. The social sciences-such as history, government, economics, and sociology-are comprehensive fields of knowledge, logically organized, based upon re- search. The social studies including such related subjects as history, civics, and problems of democracy, comprise elements selected from the social sciences, reinterpreted and organized for teaching and learning purposes in our school. During the late 1930's the term social education came into general use. Many teachers use the term interchangeably with social studies. But regardless of brand name we are concerned more with the quality and quantity absorbed by the students here at Susquehannock hoping that some day all of it will add up to be the social living.
