ORKING OUT A SOLUTIO Walljasper helped Practical Math students im- prove their skills in addition, subtraction, multi- plication and division. In Math Analysis, classes did learn about conic sections and other topics of Analytic geometry. Both traditional and modern Algebra were part of Algebra II. Walljasper stressed the teaching of solid framework. An extension of that framework is the study sets, linear equations, quadratic equations and logarithmic progressions. An M in Algebra is the requirement for Geom- etry. A necessary part of this course is learning properties, relationshps and concepts of plane and solid figures. X-z ' Trigonometry students studed solutions to right 3,J+7.m and oblique triangles, radian measure and the so- lution of triangles by logarithms. 1. It's to the blackboard once again for another assignment. 2. Students wait patiently to have their assign- ments returned. 3. Walljasper and student Jeff Stevenson work out a mathmatical eqution.

GAYLE wALDRoN BACK T0 BASICS Students know English, but periodically they slip in an error. Practical English, under the in- struction of Gayle Waldron, helped iron out all the rough spots in their grammer. Are students writing habits such that if they have to write a note to a friend, they can un- derstand it? Basic English helped students to learn to communicate on the written level. American literature students IQII learned about the lives and literature of such men as Edgar Lee Masters and Sam Clemens. Keith Syberg, student teacher, helped Print Journalism students prepare for Production Journalism as they learned to take, print and develop pictures. Production Journalism students put to use the skills they learned in Print Journalism to pro- duce the Tawana and Trentonian. 1. Waldron served as a tri-sponsor of the cheer- leaders. Waldron, Renee Griffith, Karen Wal- lace and Tina Carder check over material for a pep assembly. 2. Steve Hudson, John Elliot and Sheri Walker are impressed by a Waldron story. 3. John Elliot, Doug Spencer and Murray Den- nis sort class pictures in Production Journalism.
