Fifth grade teacher, Mr. Warren Bailey, explains a problem to two of his pupils. In addition to teaching several subjects to only his fifth-graders, he also teaches English to the fourth, fifth, and sixth grades. Fifth-graders learn about one new subject in the fifth grade - geography. This subject seems to interest them not only since it is a new on e, but since it gives them a chance to learn about parts of the world. Two New Teachers This Year Mrs. Francis Clark is telling a story to her fourth graders. She has many displays concerning science in her class- room. This accounts for the name of her book, Luna, which seems to be about a butterfly as it changes from a moth to a beautiful butterfly.

Arithmetic can be fun, especially with the new first grade teacher, Mrs. Suzanne Moyer. In this picture, she is explaining the numbers system to Connie Dunaway. In addition to arithmetic, first graders learn reading, printing, art, and music. One good part of the day is recess while lunch-time is also very enjoyable. From Teachers ' Aide Second grade students learn about the month of January through a bulletin board display erected by their teacher, Mrs. Thelma Mertz. One subject that intrigues second- graders is writing. At the middle of the school year, they learn how to write and no longer have to print. They also study their lessons in a harder and more complex way than they did in the first grade.
