In the primary room, the child gets his first introduction to these famous letters—“Readin , ’ritin’, and ’rith- mctic.” However, it is no longer necessary to teach them by the “rule of the hickory stick.” It’s too interesting. The beginner is first taught to read. No longer does he first learn his A. B. C.’s. He gets his first introduction to reading through charts and cards where he learns to associate a word and a picture. Later on the Elson Basic Readers are introduced. Each grade has two reading periods a day. The room has a library of its own, in which are to be found various supplementary readers and stories within the level of the children. Stories are read to break up the continuous task of study, and stories are frequently dramatized. The room has a chart from which they learn the sounds of various letter combinations, which enables them to attack new words with ease. In “’rithmetic,” the children learn numbers by using them. The Primary Store, which appears on page 19, is a project of the arithmetic class of this room. The stu- dents made the store out of old boxes, and each pupil contributed something to make it realistic. Toy money was used to make it seem real. The second grade acted as clerks, the rest of the room being the customers. The purchase was written on sales slips and carried on as if it really happened. For “’ritin’,” the pupils still learn to write by the old copy-book method. After all, the only way to learn to write is by actually doing it. For language, the pupils study people from various countries. The children also bring in articles from nature. These are studied, and the children find out all they can about them. Projects are evolved around these articles, and around the people and habits and customs of other countries. The children are taught music twice a week by Mrs. Myers, the school's music supervisor. pave ticenty-two
