mousm gg FIFTH GRADES We had a.pBrfect record on our Junior Red Cross Honor Roll. We also have a Spelling chart to show us our progress in spelling. Four colors are used.' Blue--no words missed, yellow--one word, green--two words, and red--three words missed. Our Health Honor Roll succeeded in keeping most of our faces and hands clean. On our book table is a display showing the stages of our milk supply--from the cow to our table. Freddie Weaver brought some snails while several others brought frogs at the beginning of the year.

We have a president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer. Our president ap- points librarians, program, refreshment, and entertainment committees. We collect dues for each month and spend that money for refreshments for our parties. We built a microphone so that we could do broadcasting. Just before Washington'e birthday, we wrote original skits about his boyhood. On his birthday, we broadcast V1rgi1's and Beverly s skitw tr use rest of the grades. We wrote original Thanksgiving plays. We selected Dav- id's as the best and drematized it for some of the other grades. We especially enjoyed our study of Iowa History. We made an Indian project while we were studying lt. Each of us made a canoe and a tepee and different members LJ the class made scenery, warriors, squaws, deer and other anim- als, tom-toms, and skins being dried on poles. We had three people on the honor roll. They are Beverly Duxbury, Fern Win- ders, and David Paul. Our boys played baskete ball against the seventh graders. In the first game we lost by only one pointj the score being ll to 12. In a return game they defeat- ed us by a score of 12 to 7. We enjoyed our basketball workouts very much under the expert coaching of Miss Ost- endorf. FIFTH GRADE 1. P A- .- -. 'x fp- ..-. .

SECOND Q THIRD GRADES W When our classes gathered in September, we found sev- enteen familiar faces in the second grade, and thirteen in the third grade. In January, Jerry Riley moved back and en- tered second grade. New additions to the third grade in the spring were Shirley Olson, Martha Brush, and Marvin Shine. Marlys Huiini moved in February, leaving fifteen third grade pup. s an etg een second graders. h goretta Egwery and Katherine Peak are the only ones who ave een nei er absent nor tardy. Each grade had two sets of new readers this year. Those gor tge segogd grade were, nFriends and Neighbors' and WMore rien s an 'eighbors. Those for the third grade were Streets and Roads and More Streets and Roads. c We have found that they contain many interesting stories about anim- als, people, and fairies. Other new books this year includ- ed 'Animals, Round the Year , The Insect Parade', An Aqua- r1um , Plants Round the Year , Doing Work , Water Appears and Disappears.n These were used by all the primary grades. Art work, especially that of the boys, has shown a def- inite patriotic trend. Bur materials have been crayons, co cred chalk and paint. Many mothers visited our room during National Education Week and at other times throughout the year. We are always glad to have them and others visit us. In late October we, along with the other grades, pre- sented the operetta, NThe Early Bird Catches the Wormn under the direction of Miss Gray. Most of us ordered garden seeds, and are planning vic- tory gardens for this summer. The third grade has studied units on the Farm Home,L1fe in a Large City, A Truck ska, Farm, and have learned the names of the continents !QqQgpe in their study of geog- raphy.
