1 gym class took a short hike, in
lieu of their usual baseball game
in the gym.
GRADES ONE AND TWO
No one has been absent this
week of school. We are going to
; miss Tonnie Fults, but we are sure
| he will see many interesting things
i and have much to tell us when he
' returns from his trip to Kentucky.
Both the Second and First A
grades have finished their Health
readers and made “Good Health”
booklets.
GRADES THREE AND FOUR
The third and fourth grades
have completed their project on
Holland. This project has been a
correlation of language, geography,
reading, spelling, and art, and the
result is something of which all
are justly proud. Other classes of
the school visited the room, as did
many mothers. The children ex
plained their pictures on the
board, read their original stories,
and as a verse chair read to their
' visitors “The Little Toy Land of
I the Dutch.”
; GRADE FIVE
We are drawing scenes of our
own locality for art work this
1 week. Some of them promise to be
j very interesting.
| We visited the Third and Fourth
Grade room today. They had pic
tures of Holland and stories of
Holland on their boards. We en
joyed them.
We are studying the South At
lantic states in geography class.
Florida has an unusually warm
