At the first of the year each of us sent to a different state for sample soil and information about the state. Billy Downs and lack Lydic drew a big map of the United States. Connie Micklow, Linda Shaver, Geneva Freeman, Ira Trout, Ronald Wagner, and Iames Overly put the products of the ,states on the map. They use-d the real products, or else pictures of the products. After Christmas each of the children in our room brought a quarter for Weekly Readers. Some of us joined the Weekly Reader Pen Pal Club. We have fun reading Mr. Potts and Corky. We also enjoyed reading good books. We now have over 85 books in our library. Phyllis Moore, Carolyn Mechling, David Currie, Richard Prinkey and Ira Trout brought books. We also borrow some from the Greensburg Library. We have kept a chart to see who reads the most books. We thought it would be nice to keep a citizeriship chart, too. Each week we elected someone to be in charge of the room. At the end of the week if your name Wasn't down more than three times, you got a star. We Wanted to see who could get the most stars. David Currie suggested the idea. This year we have had some science projects. We studied about the weather. Darla Cole brought in the weather reports from the paper and Billy Downs told us what the radio man said. We watched to see if the weather man was right. Ruth Ann Sphon brought in some tadpoles for us to watch grow into lrogs. Others have brought in their ets. P We ended our year with a Spring program about the Irish. lt was fun learning Irish songs and dances. Give us some balls and more recess and we could go to school forever C We are just one big, happy family at books or at play Page 29

Forty-two fifth grade pupils were in. our room at Painterville at the begi:n.n'ing of the school term. Some were new to this area because of coming by bus from the Kennedy area, fbut soon all were acquiainteid and en- joying school work and activities. During Pennsylvania Week we talked awbout and learn- ed some 'important and intleresting things about our state. In .oib-sie-rvancie of National Education Week, Room 2 pre- sented a play to us, and we in turn gave ai play for them at Thanksgiving time. The boys and girls always enjoy the visits of Miss Carlson and Mtrs. Cole. We had fun making art projecls and iesipe-cially .liked 1'QH!I'I'l!lIlig to sing two-part songs. As Christmas drefvv near, we were ready for a vacation but before vacation, on December 17, the P. T. A. and teach- ers gave tus a nice party iin. the New Stanton Auditorium. It alimost seemed as if we were beginning a new school year when on January 4, Miss Woliford rephaoe-d M-rs. Anderson. Early 'in .Ianuairy Patty Niiehennke received Home Bound Instruction so welve tried to keep' in touch with her and she with us by writing letters and sending pictures itio each oitrhfer. These two pnojectis weane correlat- ed with our English and Art classes. Own February 15, Sylvia Markle transferred fnom our school to- Southwest Greenesiburg. To replace her Patty Edwards caime to our room on March 2. We are avid readers both at school and at homeg to partially satisfy our craving for books Welve secured quite a feiw from the Greensburg Library. We are very giraltieful to them for their pfartin brioadieindlnfg 0ll1!I hiOTilZ01'1S. On the night of orur Spring Priognalm we were Czecho- slovaki.a.n.s . We really looked forward to that night. Our last big event for this year-the school picnic at Idlewild on June 10-and so another year has flown. But where did it fly? Our map proiects proved most interesting Good-bye, Painferville, if was nice being here fora fwo whole years. Page 31
