The Language Arts Depart- ment instituted a new series of courses in the fall. The new courses, designed by the teachers in the summer of '72, were offered in quarter or semester blocks, largely to provide greater flexibility of choice and thus, greater individualization of in- struction. According to Mr. Salinger most students pre- ferred the new way of study- ing. Registration for 1973 showed the quarter courses, TV and F ilm, and Poetry and Song, as still being the most popular choices. Bite your tongue. Just because you're bigger than I am! Team -te aching until this year was an unknown word in this school. The senior history section went through many changes, among them team-teaching. Mr. Porter and Mr. Terriquez team taught an American Government class dur- ing the first semester. The results were good. They also team taught the Problems in American Society class. They both shared the teaching responsibilities. Mrs. Wanek and Mr. Born continued to teach World History, Mr. Ryski and Mr. Born taught tenth grade history, and Mr. Porter taught ninth grade history. Mr. Terriquez and Mr. Ryski taught Minority Studies at the same time, often sharing the facilities. The new changes went over good at times, and at others not quite so well as fourth hour Problems class should well know. i 10
