P.E., Health, And Social Studies Is Enjoyed By All Students All right! Too much football! Fun! These are a few comments we got from students in Mr. Crowston's and Mr. Nice's P.E. classes. Mr. Crowston taught boy's P.E. first and second period, whereas Mr. Nice had fifth through seventh. During these classes, they would play football, basketball, soccer, dodge ball, and other rough games where they would use their mighty strength, power, and unlimited muscles to massacre their opponent. Marsha Hager, head of the girl's P.E. department, added something new to her classes this year; Aerobic dancing. The purpose of this type of dancing was to strengthen the heart. The girls also engaged in games of volleyball, soccer, dodge ball, kickball, and scooter-board football. While Mrs. Hager wasn't teaching P.E., she taught girl's health fifth through seventh periods. This year she added the study of death and dying, known as Thanato-logy to her classes. This new type of study was said to help out a lot of girls in being able to deal with death. At the other end of the health department was Mr. Nice, who taught the boy's. They did a recreational study where each person gave an oral report about a recreational activity. The reports included the cost and safety. These reports were very informative and a lot of boys found many new interests. Gary Curtis taught U.S. History and government while Steve Calhoun taught World Geography. These classes consisted of learning about the government, regions of the world, energy, and cultural values. 3 m 4 12 P.E. Health Social St.
