Satisfying the inquisitive minds of children enrolled in kindergarten, primary, and intermediate grades is one aim of the elementary school teacher. There is no specialization in elementary as there is in the other de- partments on campus. The teacher must be able to guide the physical, mental, and social development of children and furnish them with new learning experiences that are chal- lenging OS well as meaningful. Through class observations in their sophomore year, and practice teaching in their junior and senior years, the future teachers in this field are intro- duced to the problems that will face them upon graduation. At Indiana the student is taught through classroom experi- ences the use of elementary school materials and procedures. LANGUAGES: Dr. Edward Bieghler (Direr tor); Miss Andree Collard. MATH: James E.
