REPORT OF PHYSICAL DIRECTOR
January 3, 1928.
Mr. C. Edward Fisher, Superintendent of Schools, Braintree, Mass.
Dear Sir:
My report last year served only to stress the aims of Physical Education, and my plan of introducing this subject as a new part of the curriculum of the schools of Braintree. The response of the boys and girls and the
162
cooperation of the principals and the teachers was of great assistance. As stated before, I devoted my time to introducing this subject through a typical plan of class room work. Being a new subject is was necessary for all grades to have the same work, so I had printed in four issues a formal introductory syllabus. This was for the use of the teachers in carrying on the work at their required morning and afternoon periods, during the interval between weekly visits to each school. By additions from time to time we will be able in the near future to have a syllabus of Physical Education in graded steps from the first through the eighth grade. This will prepare the boys and girls for the further de- velopment of this phase of education in the gymnasium of the High School.
After a time the teachers carried on the class room work alone and I was able to devote my time to out- door classes where the recreative phase was stressed. It afforded an opportunity for spontaneous, joyous bod- ily activity and games, which even more effectively than exercises, train quickness of perception, judgment and decision, accuracy of effort with reference to ex- ternal objects and a proper sense of cooperation with others, that is, team work. While neither exercise nor play can entirely fill the place of the other, a judicious combination of formal exercises and play will best serve the interests of the boys and girls.
Winter soon kept us indoors and the halls of the several schools afforded an opportunity for another phase of Physical Education, folk dancing. This phase was introduced in the first five grades by giving several of the simple, enjoyable circle dances, an ideal form of "natural" exercise.
To my judgment we were not ready by spring for the Rational Athletic Plan I mentioned in my last year's
163
report, but all the schools had baseball teams, both boys and girls, and that afforded a method of athletic competition.
Regular gymnasium classes of fifty minutes are held twice a week for each boy and girl in the High School. Miss Brown in her report will summarize her work with the girls classes .. Every pupil has been equipped with a gymnasium suit and ample time is allowed for complete change and shower at the close of each period. The amount of time and equipment are such as to foster a complete lesson of marching, free and light hand apparatus exercises, and games of group nature. Nothing is done in class period whereby the group is not considered. The boys have been intro- duced to this phase of education gradually and are now ready for progression in all parts of the lessons, and the interest shown, and advancement made, favors the possibility of organizing a gymnasium team. With the gymnasium in full swing, we have finally completed the triangle for Physical Education-classroom-play- ground-gymnasium.
Respectfully submitted,
H. PERCY HERMANSEN.

REPORT OF PHYSICAL INSTRUCTOR
January 3, 1928.
Mr. C. Edward Fisher, Superintendent of Schools, Braintree, Mass.
Dear Sir :
I herewith submit my first report as teacher of Physical Education in the Schools of Braintree.
164
With the erection of the new High School Build- ing an opportunity has been given every pupil to take physical training and this has been made a compulsory course through the four years of high school.
In September each girl was measured for a uni- form and these were purchased at wholesale for the pupils. The costume for all classes being uniform and one which is serviceable, practical and conservative. Two days each week are devoted to the physical train- ing in the High School and each pupil has two periods of fifty minutes each. This work is divided so as to give the pupil the maximum amount of benefit from the time spent. The lessons in the gymnasium consist of exercises for the promotion of the normal growth and organic development of the body, namely, free gym- nastics, marching, apparatus work, tactics, agility ex- ercises, folk dancing and organized games. An ex- cellent locker room is provided for the girls and in this room is a battery of twelve showers which provides ample room for all pupils to take a shower after each gymnasium period. Time is taken from the class per- iod for these showers and they are considered such an important part of the lesson that all pupils are required to take them. There are also lockers for all pupils where they keep their gymnasium uniforms. These are fastened with a combination lock.
The extra activities taken up by the girls in the physical training course are field hockey and basket- ball. This fall a squad of over thirty girls reported for hockey, and due to the very efficient coaching of Miss Marion Williams, the coach last year, and the hard and conscientious work of the team this fall they came through the season with a very creditable record. We were very fortunate in securing the assistance, two afternoons each week, of one of the Posse-Nissen stu- dents to assist in the coaching.
165
The basketball season will consist of both intra- mural and inter-scholastic games, and opportunity is given to earn the school letter in this activity as well as in field hockey.
The work of physical traing begins in the first grade and continues through the child's school career. Whenever possible, weather permitting, the elementary classes are conducted out of doors. In the first two grades the time is given to story plays, rhythmic plays, games and folk dancing. Beginning with the third grade, mimetic drills and formal gymnastics are intro- duced. Through all tht grades good posture is stressed at all times, and much thought is given to include in each lesson exercises which will give an all around de- velopment to the body.
In closing I wish to express to Mr. Fisher, the Su- perintendent, and to Mr. Jordan, the Principal of the High School, as well as to the teachers my apprecia- tion of the fine cooperation which I have received from them.
Respectfully submitted,
HELEN E. BROWN.
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL NURSE
January 3, 1928.
Mr. C. Edward Fisher, Superintendent of Schools, Braintree, Mass.
Dear Sir :
I herewith submit the annual report of health work in the Braintree Schools.
Physical examinations have numbered approxi- mately 3,000, and these examinations have been made
166
by the school physicians. Parents are notified in all. cases where any serious physical defects are found. All children up to and including the fourth grade are. examined for defective teeth, those who require den- tistry work are given the opportunity to have such work. done by the Dental Clinic at a nominal cost.
Pupils are weighed and measured twice a year,. a record kept of each child, and in cases where chil -. dren have been found under weight, advice has been given to parents, and children weighed once a month. General inspection is part of our regular program. Spec- ial attention is given to cleanliness and minor ailments. Careful watch is kept for symptoms of contagious dis- eases. Home visits are made, and advice is given where necessary.
The eighth grade girls receive instruction in moth- ercraft, which teaches particularly the necessity of home cleanliness and personal higiene.
My recommendation this year is that running hot. water be installed in all schools, which seems necessary to the personal cleanliness and hygiene of the pupils.
In concluding my report, I wish to thank the teach -- ers for their hearty cooperation.
Respectfully submitted,
JOSEPHINE D. CARSON.
