Cooperation
Forty years ago this month the
Nations! Congress of Parents and
Teacher* was founded for the purpose
* of furthering cooperation among the
parent, the' teacher and the pupil.
Coopergtiveness finds its practical
application in games such as baseball,
that are
[history. Thus by cooperation an in-
sixth grade boys and girls are group-
ing together with four or five to the
group and are workiag up booklets,
drawings, and maps to be displayed
at the end of the unit. Each one is
working very hard on his special pro-
ject.
The assembly program Friday
morning was given by the B section
of the fifth grade under the direction
of Miss Danheim. The program on
transportation was given in a most in-
teresting little play. After the program
the student body sang some songs and
then marched back to their rooms.
Miss Esther Meyer is now the new
office worker for Central. We are all
very happy to have her back.
