Through their home-furnishing project and visits to Colby's and Smyth's, the girls learned to recognize styles of furniture, fabrics that go with each style, and types of homes.

Timothy Discovers Gymnastic Talents With the purchase of new equipment, the emphasis of the physical education classes switched to gymnastics, The girls were introduced to several new areas, including uneven parallel bars and trampoline. They also learned the rules of several team sports, such as flag football and field hockey. By means of films and brief lectures, the boys were made aware of the fact that physi- cal education is an art form. As in the past, the year was begun and concluded with testing all students in the area of general physical fitness.
