TEACHERS SPARK INTEREST IN CONTEMPORARY MATH That Two and two are not necessarily four, is but one startling concept in the entirely new approach to math which was introduced at Covington High School this year. In order to meet this challenge to mathema- tical thinking, it was necessary to adopt new text- books and to revise teaching methods. This revision of teacher-approach meant many extra hours of prepa- ration for the math teachers. Students also have been required to adapt to these innovations as ' the theories of set notation and inequal- ities were introduced. The modern discovery method is emphasized, and, often for the first time, students are not only concerned with the Why? , but also with the why-behind-the-why. Kim Brooks graphs a circle os Mrs. Curfmon keeps on eye on the class. Miss Mahaney points out to an erring trig student, “There are a lot of people pushing up daisies just because they failed to ob- serve a sign. 29
