The workshop, according to Mr. Hatch, was set up to improve the quality of composition in- struction and to encourage greater understanding of the theory of composition and effec- Writing Project upon which the Area 3 Writing Project came about. Mrs. Barker had different reasons. I thought it would be good for the department. It would bring more fresh ideas from teachers. It was a good recognition for the school. Mr. Gorman's reasons were, I love teaching and doing things that make me a better teacher. l love writing and doing things that make me a better writer. Leaving the workshop with helpful ideas, each teacher seemed pleased with the results. For Mr. Hatch, the workshop was beneficial for his work in the writing to think. Mrs. Barker added, We have to teach them lstudentsj to think. Critical think- ing was at the base. We need to teach writing in different modes, not just one type of writing. It is crucial to communicate ideas. Mr. Gorman concurred, lt gave me time to think about my own methods. l was exposed to a wealth of current research. l now have the tools to make a really educated decision about why l do what I do in the classroom. I am more comfortable with my style of teaching and that effects every- thing I do. by Cherie Cortez English 91

The items vere: interlocking flooring, un- reakable mirrors, a new radio system, sheet rocking for the entire building,q a new military press was purchased along with a curl bench and a free bench press and a calf machine. Students were slowly becom- ing more health conscious, said Coach Rose, they realize that they don't have to go to health clubs when they have the equip- ment right here. A few of the biggest changes in the department included adding a wide variety of sports for juniors and seniors and allowing sopho- mores to choose an elective twice a year. Racquetball, golf, and bowling were some of the new activities that were tried. The sophomores had a chance to choose their own elective two times and unlike the basic activities the new one created enrollment and interest, said Coach Rose.
