Math Moves Modern Students at Dondero now study mathematics on four .different levels, or tracks, as part of a new ap- proach to teaching math. The Hrst track is block time which handles freshmen and' sophomores who have had difiiculty with the subject. The second step instructs pupils in general math by helping them progress as far as a preparatory pro- gram which can then lead to the third track and the regular sequence of Algebra through senior math. Honors math is another name for fourth track and consists of selected students who maintain at least a B average in the course. School Mathematic Study Group, or SMSG, is yet another way of teaching math through different methods. First introduced on an experimental basis in a pilot program, SMSG is now used in all classes. Mr. Heter, below, spends some extra time with one of his students, Rod Ryder, to discuss a tricky problem. .4 - 'i 3'T,MT- 'j'!,a1i7'Caf,,1 lei' ,sp ,V- -W ..--1 ,sg CU
