F ein Y, 2 Modern poetry materializes into real scenes, posters, and other artistic torms in Mrs. lrons' llL classes. Pat Foster, Mozelle Smith, and Carol Harper are arranging exhibits tor a reception tor the parents ot all class members. Homogeneous g rouping improves English . L--f Something new has been added to the English Depart- ment. This is homogeneous grouping. With the members classified so that students of about the same levels are grouped together, teaching can be more effective. for the students will be progressing at similar speeds. It is also possible for students to move up from one level to another. Something else new in the English Department is the use of vocabulary booklets in every grade. In addition to being educational. the booklets are interesting and stimulating. The third innovation is creative writing class. After entering themes, essays, poetry, and short stories in various contests, the authors hold joyful celebrations whenever their brain children receive prizes. Interest in the literature classes heightens when stu- dents enact the characters in Riders to the Sea, Our Town, and The Barretts of Wimpole Street. Seniors dis- cover stronger ties with England as they study English literature from its beginning to the present time. juniors study the brilliant works of American authors, such as Carl Sandburg and John Steinbeck, while sophomores study literary works from the whole world. Many and heated have been the arguments over diagrams in Eng- lish IOC. Jim Chesnutt explains why he thinlrs his diagram is correct to Francis Dillard, Judy Bond, Paul Godwin, and Judy Sellers.
