-lf iv -1 QQUUQW f - 1 tudents Improve Basic Skills in English The goal of the English Department is to guide and to help students develop and improve their skills in reading. writing and speaking, states Mrs. Judy Gross, English teacher. Competi- tion on the job market and at the universities require this skill. Through the 24 English courses offered and the different levels of teaching, students are led to a more successful future. Whether students are preparing for job interviews, college education or party conversations, their functioning as citizens is more desirable if they read, write and speak as well as they are capable, adds Mrs. Gross. Maps, charts, transparencies, posters, films, records and tapes are some of the teaching aids used by the English Department. Teachers try to get students involved in classroom activities in order to provide pleasant social encounters that will hopefully promote good human relations in general. These activities include dramatizations, formal research papers and panel discussions. Q23 Q 3 W Nancy Chase waits expectantly for whatever comes up next. r Many changes have been made in the English Department this year. The ninth and tenth grade courses are now year courses instead of one semester of literature and one of general composition. We are trying to get back to basics and we feel that ninth and tenth graders will learn more by being with the same teacher all year, adds Miss Betty Sue Wrenn, department head. Basic, average and advanced levels are now offered to the ninth. tenth and eleventh graders. The reading program for the basic ninth grade English classes has been lengthened to nine weeks rather than six. Starting next -year, grammar and usage will be required of all juniors along with a semester of American literature. With the guidance of the English teachers. students learn to use the English language, to improve their own use of our dialect, and to analyze various forms of writing. The department's goal can be achieved by improvement of and practice in reading. writing and speaking. l Students listen as Miss Starr. intern. instructs them during English class.
