HO E ECONOMICS MRS. GAYLE PETERSON Home Economics Mansfield College Activities: F.H.A. Hobbies: Sewing, Cooking, Bowling Mrs. Peterson watches while Yvonne Mclntyre sews on her garment in the Home Economics Department. Mrs. Peterson instructs a class in cooking on an electric range. 32 Home Economics is a required subiect in the seventh and eighth grades and an elective in ninth grade, although this year the maiority ot the ninth grade girls have elected it. Cooking and sewing are the two main activities in which the students par- ticipate. Home Economics in seventh grade consists of learning about foods, child care, home health, eti- quette, grooming, and the use ot the sewing ma- chine. Girls are required to demonstrate their knowl- edge ot sewing, usually by sewing a skirt. Part of the year is also spent in the kitchen, learning to cook. Eighth grade Home Economics is partially a re- view ot what was learned in seventh grade com- bined with advanced and more complicated work. An example of this is sewing. ln eighth grade, the garment they make is usually more complete, in- corporating darts and pleats in their projects. They also spend part ot the time in the kitchen, learning more advanced cooking methods. Ninth grade Home Economics and Vocational Home Economics consist of more advanced work.
