iaiv I .1 .P SOCIAL STUD IES MUSIC ENGLISH departments in action LANGUAGE-The language department of Lincoln High School is each year becoming larger and more popular among students. Presently, the department offers instruction in Latin, French, and Spanish. Four semester courses are available to students in all of these languages, and in the near future, it is hoped that third year language courses can be offered. In the first year foreign language courses, primary emphasis is on acquiring a vocabulary large enough to do simple reading, to write sentences, and in French and Spanish, the ability to carry on simple everyday conversation. In second year courses, em- phasis is on the development of ability to read litera- ture of the country, to study advanced grammatical factors of the foreign language, and to become bet- ter acquainted with the people whose language and culture is different from ours. COMMERCIAL-One of the most interesting sub- jects in the commercial department is the recently organized co-operative retailing course. The course is a co-ordinated combination of school and job ac- tivities in which the student works part-time in a retail occupation and studies part-time in school on units of instruction which are directly related to his job activities. During the past semester, co-opera- tive retailing became one of the most popular sub- jects among the working students of Lincoln. The department also offers excellent instruction in many other fields of work such as typing, shorthand, book- keeping, office practice, office practice laboratory, co-operative oflice practice, and consumer's eco- nomics. SOCIAL STUDIES encompasses a full year's study of personal, home, family, school, and community problems. The department teachers place emphasis upon developing an understanding in the student so that he may better realize his relationship to other people and the community, as well as understanding his capabilities and recognizing his place in the so- cial, economic, and occupational environment of his community. The department has grown to a strength of six subjects, which includes freshmen social studies, world history, geography, American history, American government, and family living. ENGLISH-Lincolnites learn to express themselves effectively in a variety of language and English courses, including ninth grade combined social studies and English, American literature, current literature, combined American literature and Ameri- can history, senior English, literature and composi- tion, and business English. The curriculum of the courses includes reading, writing, speaking, and in- struction in grammatical construction factors of the English language. .20- PHYSICAL EDUCATION-The development of physical abilities, teamwork, and sportsmanship, are only three of the aims of the physical education de- partment. The program, which increases the num- ber of activities in its program yearly, now offers baseball, basketball, football, tumbling, wrestling, calisthenics, marching, dancing, swimming, bait cast- ing, and tennis. Badminton, golf, Health and First Aid round out an interesting and varied program. The Department also offers opportunity for student leadership in classes. During the past year, third year physical education instruction was made an elective rather than a required course. INDUSTRIAL ARTS-To students who are inter- ested in either industrial or Fine arts, Lincoln High School offers one of the finest departments in the area. Students have an array of subjects to choose from and modern equipment to work with. The de- partment offers instruction in general shop work, electricity, machine shop, mechanical drawing, print- ing, and woodshop. Such fine arts as ceramics, art crafts, art jewelry, stagecraft, and home economics are also available. MATH-Equipped with everything from rulers to trigonometry tables, math students solve equations, locus, and calculus problems. Included in Lincoln's mathematics department are algebra, geometry, com- mercial mathematics, trigonometry, senior and gen- eral mathematics. SCIENCE-The science department, which includes biology, basic and senior science, chemistry, and physics, offers an excellent opportunity of study for students who wish to increase their knowledge of science in the modern world. A large portion of class time is spent in laboratory practice where stu- dents gain first-hand information and knowledge through experimentation with modern scientific equipment. MUSIC-Perhaps the most outstanding accomplish- ment of the year in the music department is the way the band is shaping into one of the Finest in southern Michigan. The band is now rising to meet the high musical standards which both the orchestra and the choirs maintain. Both orchestra and the choirs received superior and excellent ratings at State Musical Festivals. The music department at Lincoln is one of the few in the area which adapts its band and orchestra schedule to allow students to also participate in the choir.
