.' is Mr. Robert Angley Algebra!Trig. Mathematics is the study of number, form, arrangement, and asso- ciated relationships us- ing accurately defined literal, numerical and operational symbols. Teachers assist students in developing mathemat- ical skills to the utmost of their capabilities. Math department members attended the state Math Conference in Winston-Salem as well as other workshops and lectures to im- prove their teaching methods and curri- culum development. Competition is a fun way to practice math skills. Selected students participate in math contests at area colleges such as Pfeiffer, UNC-C, and Catawba. At Christmas, classes make geometric solids for the Geome - tree. In the spring, they make booklets and posters of Geometric Constructions. College preparatory classes make projects for the annual Science and Math Fair. Alissa Hassig Mrs. Ava Are Geometry!Algeb,ra P if fti p Sb. tii- f E ,. 5 It -2 ,gil . , V i 4' I T , f X ff . .

During the Christmas season, fine arts classes made soft sculpture ornaments and wreaths to decorate their homes. The Art I classes have made lollipops and masks from papier-mache and plan to learn cal- ligraphy. The advanced art classes have made projects based on Greek mythology such as posters and paintings. During the football sea- son, they made an attractive spirit board, which had the mascot of each team we played. The French and Spanish classes competed against each other in an enthusiastic soccer match, where the French were defeated by the Spanish classes.
