how the many details involved
in such an undertaking are

a particular classroom assigned
to it, and even the Library has

Puppets of various shapes
and sizes are emerging under
the hands of their creators, and
when they have assumed an
identity Of their own a play
will be written around them.
1t will be interesting to see
how this experiment in ap-
piled language arts comes ,
out. If it is successful, the
play will probably be per-
formed in the school audi
torium but first the actors
and actresses must find out
who they are.
MAYFAIR
The circus has come to Mrs.
James McNeilly's first grade
room at Mayfair School. Cages
have been constructed for many
sorts of toy animals brought
from home; figures of more
exotic beasts, such as giraffes

been pressed into service. Larg-
er organizations such as the
ALL Elementary Orchestra and
the Elementary Glee Club have
the gymnasium or auditorium
allotted to them.
Since Prospects rooms dc
not have enough seats to ac-
commodate the numbers of chill
dren expected, even for the few
minutes of assembling there,
some children may sit on the
desks which are of the flat-top
variety. Wraps will be left in
the rooms, as everything will
be locked during the perform
ance.
The children are to follow
the instruction given them
for lining up and marching
to the Gymnasium; and
here was an item we liked:
Pupils are not to disturb
contents of desks ETC., and
are not to write on the black
board"
CHAMBERS
Weather is different each
day, perhaps more so during
the spring than at any other
time of the year. 1t is worth
while to make some kind of a
record of it, for it is easy to
forget what last weeks wealth
er was like, let alone last
months. At least, it is if you
are six and in the first grade.
For this reason, the children
in Miss Mary Coils first grade
room at Chambers School have
been keeping weather calen-
dar. Each day the go to the
right numbered block on the
sheet for that month, and
draw on it the right symbol for
the kind of weather it is: tulips
and sun for a bright day (not
too many of these lately),
clouds and an umbrella for
rain, and so on. They color
these drawings, too.
Their complete weather
calendar for April has been
posted on the main bulletin
board of the school, along
with other art work which
Miss Coils pupils have made
lately.
CALEDONIA
Caledonia's new science table
is being extensively used by all
grades in the school, including
the kindergarten. As expert
ments of different sorts are
tried out and added to the
schools repertory, new equip
ment and materials are also
brought in and left for other
classes to use.
Here is a short listing of
$ C cience experiments which
Caledonians have performed in
The past two weeks f:
