Sneed, Gladys Fary, Diane Morton, Blaine Harris, Robert Hensley, Carl Hurst, Cheryl Paszak, Robert Neville, Allan Skinner, Sharon PHYS ED The thematic bug has spread to the P.E. department. Guys and girls in gym classes? Why not? Not only does it add more variety to classes, but it gives students a better chance to select a sport that they are interested in. Be¬ sides major sports, weight-training, archery, volleyball, and use of the trampoline are included in the curriculum. P.E. teachers spend a good deal of time, effort and nerves instilling sound, sportsmanlike qualities into minds and hopefully shaping winning teams.

I LANGUAGES An increasing amount of attention is being given to the language depart¬ ment because languages are encour¬ aged in college studies. Also, be¬ cause more and more young people are traveling abroad in their leisure time. The A-L-M program is the ba¬ sic format used in teaching, with emphasis plyced on speaking, gram¬ mar and native customs. Pauli, Alise

Freshmen and Sophomores are grouped in a World History and Geography program. After a trial run last year, thematic units were established for Juniors and Seniors, consisting of political, social and economic history and U. S. govern¬ ment. In most classes, no matter what the concept, Current Events are stressed. Students learn to beg, borrow or steal a newspaper to pass the course. Less use of text books and more use of up-to-date paperback books, movies and filmstrips are incorpo¬ rated in class time. Many teachers form class discussion groups, in¬ stead of having the student work on an individual basis. If this satisfies the teacher as far as results are con¬ cerned, it also makes the students happy because they have time to catch up on the latest gossip and make plans for the weekend. 22
