Elizabeth Estes, looks intently for her book in the card catalogue. fr Xxx ff!! After- finding the name of her book locates it on the book shelf.

En lish Preparef English, one of the maior subiects at Aldine is divdied into three levels which are linked together. First, there is Sophomore English. This course prepares the students -for Junior Eng- lish. Sophomore English teacher, Mrs. Anna Petru- sas stated that Sophomore English teaches the student to develop an appreciation for Literature The main approach to teaching is through lectur- ing, discussion and reading. Next comes Junior English, Mrs. Jody Tyson, says that the main purpose is to teach the stu- dent to express oneself both orally and in com- position form, also to read and to appreciate good literature. The main book used in teaching this course is An Anthology of American Litera- ture, which gives the student a cross section of the best works of our most famous authors. The third course that Aldine offers is Senior English. This course, according to Mrs. Willie Ermel, who teaches Senior English, Prepares the student for college in every way we hope. This course pertains mostly to composition, not much literature. If a student has no composition he will not pass College English. The main approach to teaching Senior English 'is through lecture, 'dem- onstration, and through practice, says Mrs. Ermel. Other courses offered to Seniors are: Journalism, Communicative Speech, and Business Communica- tion.
