speaker of the evening, Mrs. Paul
Wise, who is special education
teacher in the ElizabethCity
schools.
Mrs. Wise gave a most inter
esting and informative talk on
mental retardation. Said- Mrs.
Wise, "School is set up to teach
the average child. The mentally
retarded child becomes confused
in new situations; any change in
routine upsets him; he often
uses poor judgment which can
lead him into unfortunate situa-1
tions." She went on to say that
a retarded person may hold a
job which requires repetition
with no deviation , from the es
tablished pattern.
Mrs. Wise
pointed out that.
most
children who come to ,
school can learn to read and
write a little and do enough
arithmetic to take care of their
money. She said safety, clean
liness and politeness are stress
ed. She told how they take
walks, , not. just to get the air
but that learning may be furth
ered. ' The children are taught to
observe and to ask about what
they observe,
Safety is stressed
on, their walks as well "as other
useful learning. V $ V ' ,i
