FIRST GRADE
Our first grade began this term
< v ith 24 pupils. Some of them
•ame with the cagerne.s of a six
vaar old for the new adventure of
school. Others were reluctant to
leave home and mothers and per
haps their favorite TV programs
or the routine of school.
Later, our number increased to
17.
Some of us who are reading
now are enjoying the stories of
Alice and Jerry. Others are find
ing Over the Wall fun, too.
It was quite a surprise foi some
tn find that when we stop say ing
“I can’t,” that letters and num
bm-s are easy to make.
We ate looking forward to
learning more things and to hav
ing a new and bigger schoolroom
before this term ts over.

always things to do. No ore is j
haopy if he works all the time
jnor is he happy if he plays all
the tune so each tries to take part '
jin the various activities and du
ties of our classroom.
It is our desire to be a help to
our school, our friends and our
teacher.
The lovely new books on our
bookshelves are a great challenge
to us. We are beginning to read
them now. We know we have
many sinprises and adventures

THIRD GRADE
A background glance at our
, first six weeks of school reveals ■
(much hard work but many en- II
I lovable and satisfying expert- I
ences.
■ Most of us are making satisfac- j 1
torv progress in cursive writing, i
. i j
I Our second sheet, for our Prog
ress Record much improvement
over the first.
Fifth grade invited us to their
Hobby Show on September 28. We |
enjoyed their attractive exhibit ;
■and it gave us an opportunity to
practice some of our rules for
good manners.
Fair Day was another high I
I light. It was fun to share our ex- :
periences during English period
the following day.
We have spent much time read
ing. writing, and illustrating
poems. We used many things we
learned in fixing our bulletin
board for October.
We are making some posters on
citizenship and hope to become
better citizens at home, at school,
and at play.
FOURTH GRADE
We love to do things and find j
out things. That is the way we are '
learning in the fourth grade.
In reading and social studies i
we are learning about the ea?ly•
settlers of our country. This helps
to understand why things are ’
like they are today, and makes ■
us proud to be Americans.
We like practice drills, and we I
are laying solid foundations in
the fundamental skills.
We have always been told to !
.follow good health habits. In the
fourth grade we learn why it is >
: good for ua to practice them I
every day.
We are learning to use dic
' tionaries and encyclopedias.
FIFTH GRADE
One corner in dur room is used '
for our library. A librarian is '
appointed each month to issue ■
book’ and k^en records on them ■
This is done twice each week. All •
of u 5 feel.it our duty to ke*p it |
attractive and in order, Books are I
' brought from home to be shared
, with each other. The Decatur De- !
kalb Library has been very gefi
erous in letting* us have all the
■ books we wanted. The latest mag- i
1 azines ar* also put on the shelves i
for us to read in our spare time
We plan to take a trip around ,
the world with books. We ere
j drawing a large outline map of [
। the world, and as each one read*
a book telling of a certain section
of the world a slip of paper with
his name and the title of the book i
! will be placed in that particular '
i spot.
SIXTH GRADE
The sixth grade has been busy
I using all possible tools in the;
learning process of their work. I
■Spelling contests have been held j
i with Diane Hamby now in the '
' lead as the best individual spell
j er. The class is in the midst of
a continuous spelling contest,
having divided up into 3
groups at the beginning of the
year. Group Number Two won
the first contest.
In arithmetic the class is in the
midst of and is doing much board
work together with the numerous
I tests for which Mr. Van Horn ii
famous.
One of the features of the year
has been Baby Beauty Contest.
The students brought in baby pic
tures arid three faculty members ■
judged the contest. Larry Darby l
won first prize; Jordj’e Bailey i
second; and Sara Ann Standard
third. The class enjoyed a party i
after the contest.
SEVENTH GRADE
The seventh grade is using
। every possible means to develop
j good citizenship, good manners,
j and patriotism. The class is work
'ing hard to get a good foundation
in the fundamentals needed for
their future education.
"TMTH GRADE
