FORMER TEACHER
INTRODUCES NEW
SCIENCE PROJECT
A former Palmer school teacher,.
Mrs. Talicia Smoot, and a fellow
teacher in Upper Arlington, Ohio,
have been credited with an out
tanding science project which
was introduced in the first six
grades of school in that city.
Credit for the success of the
program was given to the two
teachers by the superintendent of
schools. Both Donald Rielle and
Mrs. Smoot have training in
science. The students in the
fourth grade, talking about elec
trons and protons, are learning
that laws of science can be used
to help regulate their big world.
Sixth graders are expected to
make a simple electricity produc
ing cell, wire and electro-mag
net and construct a telegraph cir
cuit. The two special teachers
built a six-year program in sev
en fields of science, from “Grow
ing Things” to “Magnetism and
Electricity”.
The Smoots, formerly of Pal
mer, now live in Columbus, Ohio.
