Science Mayberry's Science Department's aim is to in- crease the students' experiences with scientific phenomen they can apply to their everyday life. The teachers believe that if a person has this know- ledge, he will be a better citizen. Some of the projects in this department are watching and analyzing the growth of different kinds or different species of plants, studying bacteria cultures as they develop, and developing and study- ing terrariums.

These teachers help stu- dents learn how to read, write, speak and to appreciate the English language. Each grade has three different books! composition, language, and literature. They are only a few of the many aids the English teachers have to help students better their understanding of the language. In addition to the regular English classes, stu- dents may elect to take reading classes and a special elective for ninth graders called English Prep. , -... .

CAROLYN REDFORD Special Education Special Education is for the students who learn slowly, so they can learn at their own speed in these classes. Each day the students study math, English, reading improvement, crafts, music and social studies. Each class is short, so the student can have more time to have the teacher help him. All of the things the students learn in special education will help them have a better life when they grow older. '31 MRS. MAXINE MCFALL MR. ROBERT GRIFFIE 35

SANDRA wi Social Studies The Social Studies teachers use a variety of methods to get the subject matter across to the stu- dents. For instance, they use films, tapes, news- papers, reports visual aids, and maps. The department teachers hope to help the stu- dent become a better world citizen by making him more aware of the things going on around him and in the world. It also helps the student become more aware of history of the world and the United States in particular. MRS. MURIEL DYCK MRS. REBEKAH KENNEDY MRS. LILY REED MR. JAMES DOLE MRS. SUE DUNSWORTH MR.

It presents the subject matter through the media of lecture and demonstration, the overhead projector, student explanations and live subject matter ex- periences. Not only does the department give students practice in practical experience with numbers it also tries to explore with the students the why behind the various concepts. MR. SPRADLIN HELPS Ronnie Kaylor with a rather difficult math problem.
