Future 'School Mantis’ Profit
From Practice Teaching Plan
Holding true to the saving “Learn by doing,” nearly 100 students
are filling practice teaching positions throughout the state this quar
ter.
Choosing schools acordicg to the
quality of their teaching staffs, com
munity activities offered and type
of programs, the School of Education
has designed the program to give
education majors practical applica
tion In their teaching specialty.
Actually stepping out Into the
schools and teaching typical children
Is an Idea devised by the educators
to give students an opportunity to
live in a community away from the
campus and to participate In the
various civic and religious organiza
tions.
Education department officials
state that each student teacher
works directly with a supervising
teacher, who in most cases has had

the various processes by which the
student teacher becomes proficiently
adapt In teaching.
Upon being asked their opinions
on the practice teaching program,
students report that they learn more
during their one quarter of teach
ing than they do in several quarters
on campus.

a bath, with an outside arrangement

suitable scenery.
The interior Is equipped with the
conveniences of a home, with elec

heat, and enough space to seat ap
proximately 26 people. Two lower
bunks provide ample sleeping space

movie "I’d Climb the Highest Moun
tain,” but It was not until a few
weeks ago that she was able to find
one for sale.
