BS PHYLLIS SUNDQUIST MARILYN BUSH English, Social Studies Eng, So. Studies, Yearbook Ad. B S., University of Oregon B,A,, Colorado State University All Roosevelt students are enrolled in a four year English program. On the Freshman level English is combined with Social Studies. Team teaching was experimented with at this level. In team teaching teachers alternate teaching larger classes, allowing each teacher more time to specialize and providing variety for the students. At the sophomore level, selected stu- dents are programmed into a three-two Speech-English program. These stu- dents attend English three days a week and Speech, two. The speech program emphasizes logic, reasoning, and the study oi great speeches. Structural grammar as 'opposed to formal Latin grammar is becoming an integral part of the program. Greater emphasis is being placed on the teach- ing of reading. Movement away from anthologies to treatment of individual pieces of literature in greater depth is evident on all levels. Use of the over- head projector has proved an invalu- able aid m teaching composition. EARL YOUNCE MARY TREZISE English, Social Studies English 4, Q- S, U., MIEH Q, S4 U. B.S., Oregon College oi Ed.

Sophomore students work in Western European History. Am- erican History was offered to a limited number of Sophomores this year. These same pupils will be able to take World Prob- lems their junior year, and an elective course their senior term. New asset to the department this year is the Oregon Pro- gram. Purpose of this program is to provide instructional ma- terial for teachers, especially in Social Studies. An artist-tech- nician was engaged to design maps, charts, and transparen- cies for use in classes. New overhead projectors, transpar- encies, and copy machines were put to good use. One student was selected from each senior social studies class to represent Roosevelt High School as a legislative intern in Salem. The students set forth on March 19, return- ing March 21. Each student was assigned to a representative to act as his honorary page during his stay. The pupils attended committee hearings and other meetings of importance. Team teaching was instigated in the Social Studies Depart- ment this year. Senior students were given the opportunity to voice their opinions on current affairs through panel discus- sions and question and answer periods following lectures. MA., Colorado State College of Ed Social Studies Mr. Bergstrom is all smiles when it comes to teaching seventh period social studies class.
