Gary seems to be saying, Proofs are easy, now just follow along and you will see your mistake. 2. Mr. Riebs is giving students good advice as they learn to measure the angles of various polygons. In Math, the hope is to broaden and deepen the student ' s basic skills and apprecia- tion of mathematics. 3. Mr. Simpson is helping Charles Pearson, Con- nie Whitacre, Marcella Sizemore, John Ford and Sonja White get some of their worksheets from the packets in the back of the room. These worksheets are a part of a new supplimentary Math program. In this program, students have the opportu- nity to work on problems and exercises about material they have forgotten but must have to continue successfully. We are spending about one day a week on this material. Knowledge advances by steps, and not by 3 leaps.

Equipped with his five senses, man explores the universe around him and calls the adventure Science. Edwin P. Hubble Science 1. These 8th grade students in Mr. Howard ' s class demonstrate how a solid like iodine crystals can change directly to a gas. This seems strange to most because in the past, solids they have seen warmed have melted to a liquid. Those pictured are: Pat Murphy, Tim Mattery, Carrie Schaeter, Mary Adams and Tony Williams. 2. Mr. Overmeyer ' s 9th grade Biology class is learning through the use ot miscroscopes. In Gen- eral Biology students develop skills tor scientific experimentation and observation. Teachers at- tempt to stimulate the innate curiosity within stu- dents about the beauties and complexities ot all life forms. 3. Mr. key ' s llS-ldeas Investigations in Science class is a new program in biology offered to Frank- lin ninth graders. Students learn each new idea by actually working with that idea in the laboratory. This class helps students understand the relevance of scientific problems in the world and their every- day lives. Tari )udd, Arley Poling, Chris Ellison, Tim Whilacre and Cerrie Bauer don ' t seem too sure about touching one of live specimens brought in for study. 4. Dave Clark, Clint Fisher, Denny Gordon, and Cheryl Wimes are demonstrating to the rest of Mr. Gorman ' s 7th grade science class just how a ther- mometer works.

Typing , ' i ; ' In typing a student ' s ability is used to help him her discover a whole new experience. This experience is a springboard to a job once out of high school or while still in school. Students learn to type at rates of 30 to as high as 70 words per minute the first year with no trouble. A typist also enjoys learning how to type letters and term papers, a skill that may help during the school year with other classes. Business forms and centering are other ways students learn to manipulate his machine. 1. Dave Trogdon, Dave Neuhaus, and Jill Jackson work quietly as the room thunders with the tick, tick, tick of their typewriters. 2. Elaine Murdock works hard on returning her carriage quickly so she can reach her goal of 50 words per minute. 3. Denise Didier reacts to the satisfaction she receives when obtaining a goal in typing a letter. 4. Study Hall offers students an opportunity to complete all assignments at school, visit the library, and carry out a few extra projects. It is a valuable tool for the student who uses time wisely. Those, who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little tempo- rary safety, deserve neither liberty or safety. Ben Franklin Study Hall
