IQ! S QGG6G 76Q ' a xv xy I f .1 HEALTH ACTIVITIES The first and second graders enjoyed their health lessons very much. Every morning there was an inspection of hands, finger nails, and teeth. They also tried to have a clean handkere chief to start each new day. At these times a discussion of the correct foods for breakfast especially were taken up and usually each one talked of his or her own breakfast. It was easy to be seen that most of them enjoyed good, warm, nourishing breakfasts be- fore they were sent to school. The greater per cent drank milk not only for breakfast but for their other meals. In connection with this they also had health songs and health stories. JUNIOR RED CROSS V Early in the term we all became Junior Red Cross Members, paid in our pennies, and in re- turn received our pins and our monthly magazine As was done in many of our county schhols the children made a very pretty and interesting Valentine booklet and sent it to the Riley Hos- pital for the little children there. At Easter time some of the most interest ing and entertaining material from their hand- work and art classes was again sent to the Ril- ey Hospital. READING Both the first and second graders considers reading their most important subiect. They have found they must learn to read before they can ever expect to go much farther in their school work. Every year more and more reading is fre- quired. As a result mush interest is taken in their reading and by exchanging books with the first and second grades of Goldsmith they have been able to cover much more material. The first grade have also made several booklets in connection with their work.

I GRADE 3 E 4 The third and fourth grade boys and girls have been very busy this year with various soc- ial activity projects. The ones of especial in- terest were the thanksgiving story and the study of Holland as worked out on the sand table. We studied the country and the people. Different articles such as wooden shoes, pictures,and let- ters were contributed by members of the classes. The study of Indians has also proved very inter- esting. Booklets telling the story of the Ojiwa Indians have been made. We are also members of the Junior Red Cross and receive our Junior Red Cross News every month. The stories in the magazine are very interesting and we learn what other children are doing to help unfortunate people. We have made a quilt top of blue and pink for a baby crib to send to the Riley Hospital. We have also made Easter greeting cards to sent to the hospital at Marion.
