Gradually we learn the importance of words in reading, studying, and solving problems ROW 1: Michael Arian, Margaret Wylie, Terry Wynne, William Zangwill- NOT PICTURED: Raymond De Angelis, Ralph l Greer, Ronald Hardin, Rita Harris, Bobby Harrison, 9 Louise Huey, Dora McCenally, Kenneth McLain, William Morrison, Leonard Nash, Ann Peel, Johnny Shelton, Brenda Yarbrough, Sandra Yarbrough. dll We settle down to practice the use of those fundamentals we worked so hard to learn. The new part of our foundation that we build in our seventh year is the first to be above the surface and to show the kind of work we did during the first six grades. The places in our foundation showing the weakness in our number work, reading, and consideration of the rights of others is now in evidence. HERE WE ARE AT WORK From the study of Tennessee History, we seventh graders learn much concerning the early growth of our state. We read about the first settlements, the development of government from settlements to territory, and about the men who took leading parts in the early development of Tennessee. Judy Sheffield is reporting on the Constitution of 1796 and on John Sevier who was the first representative to Congress. 30

Words are mortar that holds our foundation together- It is through words we understand and make answers understood. Vt lt To read a weather map cor- rectly is not easy unless you understand the signs. Steve Alabaster measures the relative humidity with a paycrometer, J oy Notowich interprets a weath- er map, and Bill Lyons measures the temperature daily with a thermometer. Fractions in arithmetic are difficult for most of us, but our work is made interesting by finding practical application in stores and newspapers as shown by Jonathan Amy, Harris Van- derford, Clarence Dailey, Susan Stephenson, Beverly Sullivan, and Judy Sheffield. iv A , .qu Map work makes geography interesting. We have political, physical, and historical maps. We make maps to show indus- tries and products of South America. Barry Wiener, Richard Vaughn, Abby Byall, and Donna Copeland show their work. Bobby Bowers and Mary Ann Bryan are checking their hand writing by a key in order to cor- rect their defects in penmanship.
