Visit School

Parents and friends of the
school are urged to visit school
frequently. 1t is because it isn't
done very often that visiting is
considered nerve-racking expert
ence. Teachers are encouraged,
pupils will do their best, and par
ents understand the reasons for
progress or retardation of their
children if they visit school in ses-
sion.
Modern teaching methods are so
much more interesting than those
of fifteen or twenty years ago.
The special abilities of pupils are
given a chance to develop. The
present theory of teaching is that
activity is the chief means of
learning.
The teachers and pupils of the
Plentywood schools invite you all
to visit school at any time. Review
and examination weeks may not be
SO interesting but they do not
come very often.
The Parent-Teachers Association
met Monday evening in the high
school assembly room. Mrs. Gar
neau played two very beautiful
numbers on the piano. A most in
teresting language lesson demon
stration was given by Miss Mac
Moran and a group of third grade
i. pupils. Mr.. Stegner spoke on the
activities of the school. To con-
clude the program a number OF
sophomores gave three. original
playlets to demonstrate the value
of good English. The Home Econ
omics girls served hamburger
sandwiches and coffee.
Some interesting newspapers
were made during the last week
by the English ~ class. The
class worked in groups of foul
and each group made a complete
school newspaper. A large variety
of subjects was used for the news
articles and many humor columns
were written. This work was done
, in connection with the study Of
Journalism that the class has beer
taking up.
