GRA.de five news - MR. MACKEY The pupils in Mr. Mackey ' s room have been very busy doing projects in Science and Social Studies, as well as Mathematics. The projects are done by means ' of cards telling the general idea of the project, but the students have to decide what part of the project they will do. It makes the work very interesting, as they do what interests them most. This year, the pupils were on rotation with Mrs. Schmidt as their teacher for some of their subjects. Mrs. Charlton is their teacher for part of tne week also, when Mr. Mackey does his principal ' s jobs. The room is separated into different groups at which the children are able to go and do their work on their own. A Weather Station was set up by the pupils and they made all the equipment necessary for weather forecasting. In the morning. Current Events are studied, such as the Liberal Leadership Race and world events of importance. Terry Cooper.
