THE CAIRO MESSENGER. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1949
Cairo School
NEWS
By
Margaret Kennedy
(This is the second in a series
of articles which are being writ¬
ten to acquaint the general public
with the various departments in
our school. The following re¬
port was submitted by the high
school English teachers—Mrs.
Lloyd Godwin, tenth and eleven¬
th grade grammar; Miss Frances
Mills, tenth and eleventh grade
literature; Mrs. G. L. Worthy,
ninth grade; and Miss Adolvn
Arline, eigth grade.)
The English Department
The study of English is a means
of relating literature, poetry,
grammar, spelling, and writing to
LIFE.
During his high school career,
a student has a wide range of
studies in today’s broadened cur¬
riculum wherein he has the op¬
portunity to choose many sub¬
jects as electives . . . but English
is not among them . . . for one
of the first requirements for any
high school diploma is the suc¬
cessful completion of four years’
work in this all-important sub¬
ject. And since an individual’s
success in life is most often de¬
pendent on a good foundation in
the basic principles of his high
school English courses, this is
certainly as it should be.
In our school, this four-year
course is so planned as to give
each student a maximum period
of study in all phases of the sub¬
ject—reading, reading compre¬
hension and oral intex'pretation,
the use of the fundamental prin¬
ciples of grammar in speaking
and writing, American and Eng¬
lish literatui'e, composition, voca
bularly-building, and spelling. In
the eighth grade, the sub-fresh¬
man class, the year’s work in¬
dues reading, functional gram¬
mar, is taught for simester
and literature is studied during
the other half of the term.
ing is included as an integral
of every class in English.
It is the aim of our school’s
English teachei’s not only to teach
the USE of the fundamentals of
English, in order that
may be well prepared to meet the
requirments of an educated civi¬
lization—but at the same time,
to instill in each individual an
APPRECIATION of the value of
reading, a LOVE of good litera¬
ture, an ADMIRATION for the
beauty in poetry, and a PRIDE in
becoming a perfect instrument of
communication for our universal
language.
In order to accomplish the
above aims to the fullest extent,
the four English teachers have
formed a strong departmental
unit, which works out its common
aims, problems, and various pol¬
icies. They have recently met
with the school librarian, Mrs. H.
M. Chambers, and the city librar¬
ian, Miss Wessie Connell, for the
purpose of making a complete
annotated reading list for the en¬
tire high school. This list, which
is made up of approximately five !
hundred approved books for!
parallel work, has been complet-!
ed and a mimeographed copy will J
become the property of each stu-!
dent. t Thus, an accurate and in- ;
valuable record of the required j
books every child reads will be I
kept during his five years in high !
school ... a reference record
which has never before been \
available in our school.
But then, of course, the Eng- !
lish department has its problems,
too. First, the classes are much
too large for the most efficient
work by both the teacher and the
pupil. The minimum number in
an English class is approximately
thirty-five, which is too large a i
group for students to receive the
individual attention necessary to
accomplish the best results in
their work. j
wide differences in the back- 1
grounds of the varied types of
students make another distinct j
problem in teaching English
fectively. Therefore, many for
ward learning, pupils are l'etarded in their j
while those who are
backward sometimes struggle to
keep up in the same group.
Third, in the same classes, there
are some who are planning to
enter college and many who are
not. Under these circumstances,
neither group has the opportun¬
ity to receive the particularly
specialized training it needs for
the immedate future.
A fourth problem presents it¬
self, when the day’s schedule does
not include sufficient time for a
separate spelling period. Thus,
a portion of the English class
must be given up to spelling,
which should be important
enough to deserve a period of its
own. It is understood that spel¬
ling is always a part of English,
but it is also true that a one-hour
period is a short time to be divid¬
ed between the two classes.
However, to off-set these dis¬
advantages, the English Depart¬
ment of Cairo High School is
working to develop the maximum
potentialities of each student so
that he will be adequately equip
ped with a sufficient
in English to take his place in
any field of his own choice.
