For thirty-one Salem
seniors missing fall break
and getting up at 6:30 each
morning is no tragedy.
Making their classroom
debuts as student-teachers on
Monday, October 12, these
seniors will be conducting ten
weeks of classes in the
Winston-Salem, Forsyth
County public schools.
In preparation for this first
teaching experience, the
student-teachers have
enrolled in an intensive five
week program called “The
Block’’ in which they com
plete two courses. It is within
this program that they study
various teaching strategies,
the teaching of reading, and
the educational needs and
characteristics of the
students with whom they will
be working. At the end of the
five week program, each
student-teacher will be able,
through the use of video-tape,
to observe herself teaching a
lesson.
Each of these thirty-one
seniors has concentrated in a
specific subject and grade
level. Of the thirty-one,
nearly half have prepared
themselves to teach within
the early childhood category
(grades K-3) while others
have prepared for teaching at
the intermediate (grades 4-9)
and secondary (grades 10-12)
levels. A few students have
focused on Art and Music
Education, and a number will
also be working with children
who are learning disabled
and-or emotionally han
dicapped.
A grades K-3 student-
teacher, Misae Tanaka, will
be working with twenty-three
first graders, some of whom
have learning disabilities. As
have all the student-teachers,
Misae has had the op
portunity to meet the
cooperating teacher with
whom she will be working and
to observe the students she
will be teaching. Misae
describes her cooperating
teacher as being helpful and
supportive; and having seen
her charge of six years olds in
action, Misae admits that
teaching them will be a
challenge.
Faculty Exhibits Art
An exciting collection of
works by Salem College
faculty artists Lea Lackey-
Zachmann, Bill Mangum, Ed
Shewmake and Rick Flanery
is now on exhibit through Oct.
15 in the Salem College Fine
Arts Center.
Lackey-Zachmann is
showing her “process
painting’’ watercolors of
visual images for the first
time.
Mangum’s works include
landscapes and a portrait of
novelist William Faulkner
done in oil. The exhibit also
includes acrylic and oil
portraits as well as etchings
by Ed Shewmake.
Functional and free-form
pottery by Flanery will be on
display until Oct. 15, when
paintings from jazz musician
Donald Byrd’s collection of
works by black artists will be
featured. Byrd will also give
an 8 p.m. concert at the
Reynolda House Oct. 30.
The public and all students
are encouraged to view this
unique collection of art in the
FAC weekdays from 9 a.m. to
9 p.m. and Sundays, 1 to 9
p.m.
“In the Mountains” is one of Shewmake’s works on exhibit in
the Salem College Fine Arts Center.
The timetable leading to
full control of the classroom
by the student-teacher varies.
Polly Lindenmuth, one of two
students seeking certification
to teach the emotionally
handicapped, describes her
position in the classroom as
initially that of an aide.
“Eventually,” Lindenmuth
states, “I will have full
control of the class and will be
writing all the lesson plans;
later, the cooperating teacher
will essentially become my
aide.”
Guidelines for student-
teachers require that the
student-teacher have full
control of the classroom for a
minimum of two weeks.
Student-teachers must also
assume all the duties of the
cooperating teacher in
cluding bus duty, playground
duty, and parent conferences.
On returning to campus each
day, they must prepare
lesson plans for the next day’s
teaching.
Grading ' of student-
teachers is based on weekly
evaluations by the
cooperating teacher as well
as by a Salem supervisor who
periodically observes each
student-teacher in the
classroom. Finally, exit
criteria measuring the in
dividual student-teacher’s
achievement or lack of
achievement in the classroom
becomes a part of her
placement file.
Board Stresses
Officers’ Duties
“I hope Officer’s Board can
emphasize the importance of
each class officer and her
duties,” said Lee Richardson,
founder of the board.
Officer’s Board was
established as an auxiliary
council last spring. Its pur
pose is to serve as a com
munication and planning
source between classes.
The board also plays an
important role in guiding
freshman class officers as
they become familiar with
the rules and functions of
SGA.
Members are class officers,
the chairman of Election’s
Board and a day student
representative. Class officers
of the preceeding year are
asked to remain on the board
through midterm of the fall
semester. The junior class
president serves as chairman
for one year, beginning
midterm of her junior year.
Richardson is serving as
chairman until Oct. 25 when
France^ Barnes will assume
the chairmanship.
