Our Stamp Program
Stamp Day is an interesting day
for our classroom. It helps us to
learn arithmetic and how to han
die money. We must be RESPONSE
BILE for every penny that we collect
from the rooms.
For our stamp program we have
made a graph showing the percen-
tages for each room and the school
percentage.
There are stars all around the
graph showing each grade section.
There are two large stars at the
top of the graph. The two rooms
having the highest percentage get
their teachers name put on the
stars.
Mrs. Galbraith's first graders
have been our Heading stamp buy
ers. Her name has been up on the
big star seven times. Mrs. McFaul
has been up five times and Mrs.
Clendaniel and Mrs. Smith have
been up one time each.
Let's all remember that "a pen-
ny saved is penny earned" From
October to March 10th we have
sold 5O,396 stamps.

Health Projects
In our health work we are study
ing about foods. There are many
food elements. Each one belongs
to one of the five families. The FAM
lily names are the carbohydrates,
fats, prOteins, minerals, and vita
Minis. We need many kinds of good
foods to keep our bodies healthy.
We divided ourselves into five
groups, one for each family.
Each group is trying to gather
all the materials they can so that
they can make posters and give re-
ports on each family to the class.
In this way we hope to learn much
more about these food elements and
the Importance of each one to us.
We are enjoying our project very
much.

DR.. Heyde's Visit
Z We have been studying about
teeth and why we should take care
of them. On January 10th, 1859,
DR.. Heyde came from the L. ID.
Caulk Company to talk to us about
teeth. He had a big model of the
mouth. He drew a picture of a
tooth on the board and named
the parts. He explained the uses
of each part. He asked us some
questions about our teeth which
we could answer because we had
studied about teeth before he came
to our room. He told us about the
foods that are good for our teeth
| and the ones that are notsg0od for
us. Mr.. Glenn came and gave us a
bottle of mouth wash and a tooth
brush. We all thought it was very
very nice that Mr. Glenn and DR..
Heyde could come and talk to us.
