A good deal of attention this year is being given by the physical direc- tors to the problem of posture correction. Pupils with posture defects were discovered through the physical examinations given by the school physician, with the parents' consent. Exercises for the ordinary posture defects are prescribed and supervised by the physical directors. Unusual cases are referred to the clinic located at the Grouard House. The super- visors are limited in the corrective work, because the exercises require a great deal of time for supervision. In many cases, the physical director has asked that certain exercises be done regularly at home under parental supervision. In such cases, however, the pupils are checked at regular in- tervals for progress.

It is of course true that the success of any school cannot rise above the ability and willingness of its teaching corps to carry out the policies of the school, which are in part promulgated by the teachers themselves. It is therefore essential to retain teachers of proved ability, and to provide ade- quate inducements to attract the best candidates for vacancies that arise. The Junior High School is a recognized unit of the secondary school, and the teacher reqquirements are certainly as exacting as in the Senior High School. I feel very strongly that the same possibility for advancement should exist in both units of the secondary school on the basis of similar training and experience. That possibility already does exist for the men teachers of both schools. It is quite desirable that it should also exist for the women teachers.

REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE CENTRAL PRIMARY SCHOOLS, GRADES 1-4 AND THE INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL, GRADES 5-6, 1928
Mr. Adelbert L. Safford, Superintendent of Schools, Reading, Mass. Dear Sir :
I hereby submit my annual report as Principal of the Union St., Center, and Highland Schools.
The organization of these schools is the same as last year with the exception that another room was opened in the Center School.
In the first grades at the Union St. School, the Courtis Smith Pic- ture-Story Reading Method which was adopted last year has proved very satisfactory. By this method the children "learn by doing." They not only learn to read well and quicker by this method but the handwork which goes with the system trains them in drawing and in ability to follow directions. It also trains them in self-reliance and concentration and habits of neatness and order. This method also permits each child to progress as rapidly as his ability will permit.
Last year there were only five of the ninety pupils who entered the first grade who were not promoted to the second grade and these would probably have been promoted but for illness or continued absence.
This method which was first used in Detroit is comparatively new in Massachusetts so that superintendents, principals and teachers have visited this building to see this method in operation. The records show that there
177
were seventy-four visitors representing thirty-two towns and cities. All the visitors have been very enthusiastic about the work which is being done by the pupils and the method has since been adopted in some of their schools.
Next year we hope to carry this method more extensively into the. second grades.
Two students from the Lesley Normal School have been training in this building.
There were so many pupils for the second, third, and fourth grades that it was necessary to open another room at the Center School. We were fortunate in securing for this room Miss Perkins, a graduate from Salem Normal School, who trained in the Highland School last year.
Miss Helen Quinlan who has taught so successfully for many years resigned in June to be married. This was a great loss to the school but Miss Winchester, a graduate from Salem Normal School, who trained under Miss Quinlan last year, was elected for her room so the work is being carried on in a very satisfactory manner.
Silent reading is being specially stressed in these grades. By the use of tests with the Thought Test Readers the teacher checks up for com- prehension as well as for vocabulary.
As in the past years, students from the Salem Normal School are training in this building.
There were so many pupils entering the first grade at the Highland School that it was necessary to do some redistricting and send some to the Union St. School where there was more room.
The Courtis-Smith Method of Reading was introduced in this room this year and the pupils are progressing rapidly but would do better if they could be in a room by themselves and not with the second grade.
The work in the third and fourth grades is being carried on very successfully. A student from the Lesley Normal School has trained in the second grade and one from the Salem Normal School is training in the third and fourth grade room as well as those training in the fifth and sixth grades.
The work of the Intermediate School which includes all the fifth and sixth grades is departmentalized as last year although many changes have been made in the program and the periods are longer. This has been more satisfactory as it eliminates study periods and the written work is under the supervision of the teacher who specializes in that subject. Miss Whit- tier was elected supervisor of music in the grades and Mrs. Blaisdell of the Junior High faculty was elected to fill the vacancy. She is also assistant to the principal and with her former experience in the Highland School as well as her experience in the Junior High School, has given valuable as- sistance in organizing and carrying out many new plans.
'The "Individual Method" so called was begun last year by the introduction of the Washburne Individual Speller. By this method the
178
pupil studies only the words he does not know how to spell and progresses according to his own ability.
This year the Individual Method is being used in teaching Arith- metic. By means of assignments the pupil progresses at his own rate of speed so the rapid pupil is not held back nor the slow one pushed ahead beyond his ability to comprehend. Frequent tests are given so the teacher knows whether the pupil understands the work. If the pupil passes the test ninety per cent or ninety-five per cent he takes the next assignment which has more difficult problems. The teacher then gives each pupil who does not pass the test the special drill he needs.
In the sixth grades History is being taught by the problem method. Each pupil is provided with A Students Work Book in Backgrounds of American History. By this method the pupil is led to see that history is a record of the problems people have had to meet in the past. In solving over again these problems, he finds the story of the development of our country more interesting. This method includes reading of references, con- sideration of questions in the notebook and writing answers in notebook.
Language is also being taught by the assignment method in the sixth grade by a plan similar to the Miller plan of the C. B. and A. assignments. The C. assignment is required of every one. When the pupil finishes the C. assignment, he may do the B. and A. assignments.
This year a course in Science was introduced in these grades. The aim of this course is to familiarize the child with the common plants and animals and their importance in man's life, also to study some of the ap- plications of physical science in the play life of the child.
The Library method of teaching reading is being used. The aims of this method are the same as any other method but the chief aim is to teach a love of reading. A small library of books is supplied each room and in addition some are furnished by the town library. Each pupil selects one that he likes and reads it silently and reads some incident for the benefit of the class.
In June 121 pupils received one or more "five-book" reading certi- ficates and 17 pupils received Honor certificates for reading twenty books. One pupil received two Honor certificates and two pupils received three Honor certificates. These certificates were presented by one of the trustees of the public library.
Once a week in connection with the teaching of civics and citizen- ship a lesson in thrift has been given. Not only the saving of money but the saving of time and materials has been stressed. The pupils of the fifth and sixth grades kept a record of their savings for a month and re- ported that they had saved from allowances and earnings $669.89. Be- sides the money saved by the stamp bank at the school many had saved in the Savings Banks and Co-operative Bank. The boys earned their money by doing errands, being caddies and working in stores, earning up to $2 a week. The girls have allowances or earn money at home or by doing er- rands from twenty-five cents to one dollar a week.
179
Special stress has been given to the teaching of Health. A very definite program has been arranged and a full set of reference books given to each class. Besides the study of health habits which promote growth and health, a study is made of classes of foods, their source and value of each. In order to stimulate more interest, a Health Magazine is being edited by each class. This magazine includes the best essays and drawings which have been done by the class thus correlating this work with the English and Art departments. Besides this each child has his individual notebook.
A new feature in our health education is the work being done by Miss Lancaster of the High School faculty. She not only supervises the physical training in the first six grades but she has charge of the postural needs of these grades. By posture tests which are given to all the pupils she finds those who need remedial work. Once a week these are given in- struction and exercises which are followed up by daily work at home.
Many children have attended the posture clinic and two from this district have been to the Winchester Hospital for treatment. Already marked improvement has been shown not only physically but in their ability to do their work better.
A student from Posse Nissen school is training under Miss Lancaster and is giving class instruction in the primary grades.
The organization of the Opportunity School is the same as last year, a primary group and an elementary group. These groups are small so that individual instruction may be given. Good work has been accomplished in both groups so that at the beginning of this year thirteen pupils went bask to the regular classes of their grades.
Respectfully submitted,
M. GRACE WAKEFIELD.

REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE LOWELL STREET SCHOOL
Mr. Adelbert L. Safford, Superintendent of Schools, Reading, Mass. Dear Sir:
Herewith I submit a report of the Lowell Street School for the year ending December 31, 1928.
This is the second year that we have had the primary grades only, the 5th and 6th grades attending the Highland School as they did last year. The present arrangement works out very well indeed, particularly on the playground where the children, being so nearly of an age, play well to- gether.
180
The number of children who bring their lunches is far less than formerly since so many children are transported by bus to and from their homes. This is gratifying as we feel they are better off for having a hot meal at noon. The same bus was used to carry the children living on the other side of Mineral Street Bridge while the latter was out of order. These children were dismissed ten minutes early noon and night in order that the bus could be back again in time to convey the larger group that is regularly carried through Grove and Franklin Streets to North Main Street.
Since September Miss Lancaster, the Physical Training teacher at the High School, has made weekly visits to the school instructing, testing and helping the children in good posture. Encouraging results have fol- lowed. Those children who fail in the posture tests have the privilege and opportunity of attending the Posture Clinic held once a month. It is neces- sary to have the parent's written consent before the child can take advan- tage of this opportunity.
The Playground Apparatus consisting of see-saws, rope swings, jumping standards and a trapeze has been repaired and re-painted. Sincere appreciation is extended to Mr. Fred Merritt for his kindness in splicing the ropes for us without charge.
One of the pupils from the Lesley Normal School has spent a month this fall in the third grade for observation and practice teaching. For three days she substituted in the second grade when the regular teacher was ill and not able to be at school.
The year has been an especially happy and satisfactory one due to the splendid attitude and co-operation on the part of the teachers.
Respectfully submitted,
NELLIE P. BEATON, Principal.
