CADET TEACHING New Learning Experiences Cadet Teaching was offered to those senior students who either were considering a career in teaching or wanted to work with young people. The abrupt change from the role of learner to a position of authority was quite an experience for those who participated. Though the program was limited in size, several students took part each semester. Once classroom work was completed, they moved into one of the three grade schools, or the two junior highs in the Dallas area. Without exception, those in this program found it to be both rewarding, different, and indicated that it was an experience they would not easily forget. Cadet Teaching 21

HOME ECONOMICS Boys Enjoyed Cooking, Sewing Home Economics, no longer was dominated by girls. Mrs. Jackie Gwinn, instructor, first taught the increased number of boys basic skills, then covered the “how to’s” in baking appetizers and main dishes. Submarine sandwiches remained a favorite for the second year and provided creative challenge and full stomachs for those enrolled. Girls food classes showed more expertise in food preparation. Complicated dishes like yeast breads, special breakfasts and canning were highlighted. Mrs. Jeanne Lough taught all clothing classes.

SCIENCE Haack Returned As Teacher Science at DHS was a broad subject and many classes were offered. Of the required classes, the sophomores had Physical Science first semester and Biology second semester. The former covered such topics as light, sound waves, color and mechanical machines. Many competencies were completed in this class, as well as in Biology. Students enrolled kept a notebook of all labs, vocabulary and projects. Films, labs and independent study added interest, while extra credit projects were also an option. Chemistry and Physics were offered to juniors and seniors; each depended heavily on class participation. The new addition to the science department, Bob Haack, returned as a teacher and alumnus. Indulged in an extensive laboratory assignment are sophomores Delmar Marks, Mark Gillins, Patty Kid and Debbie Sharp. 22VScience
