In the art department, wonders oc- cured: white pieces of paper were transformed into beautiful pieces of artwork; mounds of clay were molded into fantastic sculptures; and most of all, students with an interest in art acquired skills that would stay with them forever. Drawing, painting, and sculpting were just a few of the many courses offered. For the more ex- perienced artists, there were op- portunities for independent study and instruction in many other art modes. The art students showed their creative ability by the many art pieces that were produced throughout the year. ©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©o 9 During their art class. Kim Lake.

A MUSICAL INTRODUCTION Vickie Sadier and Dwight Pattison concentrate on their music. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee © © © € € © € © € © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © © T For Matt Bonner, Folk Instruments is a class to relax and develop a favorite hobby. Introduction was a key word in Folk Instruments and Introduction to Band class. Both classes con- sisted of 7th and 8th graders, most with no previous experience in the musical arts. Intro. Band, taught by Mr. LaCava, was basically not a performing group since these students we re beginners, but the same instruments as in regular band were played. The novice musicians learned songs from the book, “First Division Band Method,” as they played different songs from week to week. Folk In- struments was taught by Mrs. Slosky. Students in her class need- ed no previous training. They began from step one learning to read music and chord symbols. The recorder and guitar were two instruments taught. Introduction to Band and Folk Instruments were very important steps in training in- termediates, for they would soon be among Lake Braddock’s great performers. FOLK INSTRUMENTS: D. Aber- nathy, J.
