History Classes Change Sequence Andy Martin, Jim Gehrs, David Wright found map skills help identify foreign lands. Sheila Stout receives help on a difficult question. Class offerings in the Social Studies were adjusted this year in order to end the situation where juniors had to take U.S. History and the Constitution class at the same time. The Constitution class was not offered to juniors this year so they will take the class as seniors. This new sequence will be followed in years to come, thus taking some pressure off of the junior year. Because the Constitution course was not taught in the high school, Mr. Sandstrom had the opportunity to teach one section of 8th grade U.S. History and two nine-weeks classes of Study Skills to the 7th grade. Only one section of World History could be scheduled so the class was a heterogeneous group representing all four classes. Mr. Sandstrom prepares a new lesson plan for his 8th grade class.

Math Classes are a Must! JANET BURCHAM Geometry. Camel. Algebra I Hobby Reading Year Highlight: Having people interested enough to go to Math Contest Year Low light: A seventh hour class during spring sports when students arc gone more than they arc here. Math skills arc best learned by practicing problems. Students use math skills every day. Geometry Proofs — we can now say we've had that experience. For most, it wasn't a great experience, but we survived. C A M EL modules arc nearing completion with a reward of a cake if you “aced” the two difficult ones. ALGEBRA I seventh hour is not the best time for Algebra but we did learn a lot — and added new words — factoring. FOIL, variable and others unprintable when the factoring wouldn't work.
