We received cotton plant
from Tennessee this week on
which the cotton is ready to be
picked. We also received some
cotton seeds and big roll of cot
ton that has been cleaned. Now
we know where our shirts, dress
es and stockings come from.

play about rabbits. We liked it

casting station in our room We
named our station O. r. A. II. 1t
you would like to know what the
letters stand for, ask us children
and we will tell you. Joan Houle
thought of the best name. Orland

The beautiful picture of the
Blue Boy by Gainsborough was
especially enjoyed last week. We
each mounted our picture and
wrote a story about it to place in
our famous picture booklet.
We are learning how to spell
plurals correctly during Language
class. This will help us to write
better sentences and stories.
Groups / and II gathered the
same number of pumpkins for
our spelling chart because of re-
ceiving the same number Of AS.
During our club meeting last
week we decided to add one new
word a week to our vocabulary.
Before we know our words per-
fectly we must know how to pro-
nounce the word, know the mean
ing and use it correctly in sent
ence.
During Book Week we made
attractive book marks. We pre-
sented one to each, Miss Vittum
and Miss Holland.
Miss McLeGn-GrGde v
The fifth grade has made its
Library Reading chart for Book
Week. We wish that. each child
might read and report on at least
six books this year. Many have
already reported on that number.
We have been working on de-
sign in art and now we have
some interesting covers for our
language pictures.
Many good thermometers were
drawn for a lesson in arithmetic.
We have the best ones on the bull
letin board.
Since the boys and girls in our
room have been responsible for
the bulletin board, we have had
quite interesting displays.
Miss MorriS0n-GrddeS w and v
Now that the fifth graders have.
completed their multiplication
tournament, with Erwin Hermann
as winner, the fourth graders
have decided to start one. Two
matches have been played off al
ready and they expect to finish
the first round by the end Of the
week.
Both the fourth and fifth grad
ers are busy working on a
Thanksgiving Table.
In art classes some very inter-
esting pictures are being made
entirely of triangles. 1t is fun
making them, and some very
clever ones have been cut out.
