MRS. FRIEDA SADDLEMIRE: Kindergarten Grade teachers mold young minds The years spent in kindergarten through sixth grade are students’ formative years, when their minds and personalities take shape. The job of molding these young people's minds is entrusted to their teachers. Elementary teachers have many qualities - patience, understanding, love of children, and insight. These are necessary for teaching students the fundamentals of education. They are also forming the minds of future students and citizens of tomorrow’s world. MRS. MARY SHULTES: Grade 2 MRS.

It offers a preview of what will be expected of them and suggests ways of helping to make their teaching careers successful and rewarding. Their activities center around meetings of the Capital Area F.T.A. and the regional conference at Binghamton. At the C.A.F.T.A. meetings the students listen to lectures given by new teachers and discuss their own schools and teachers with area students. At the regional conference, the group meets foreign exchange students visiting other schools and discusses their opinions of our country and the differences between schools. In order to finance these trips the F.T.A. sold refreshments at soccer and basketball games.
