In part the report is as follows: The regular academic. work has-been done by teachers and supervisor as in st years, and there is little to com- ton in this respect. By opening another room in the Center you bave provided better schooling for the chil. dren in that part of the town, and I sure your efforts are appreciated all concerned.

In arithmetic the 9 vear old children did reasonably well The 11 year old puplls had made con- tinued improvement over the 9 year olds in figuring, showing considerable orking with common and decimal fractions. On the other hand, the 11 year old pupils had failed jo master thé ordinary two-step prob- lems. T are innerent difficulties In the transition from one-step to two- step problems, and evidently there is 2 need of more careful instruction e. The 13 year old pupils did bet- with three-step probloms than the & d pupfls did with the two- Jiep problems. They also did much “etter work in figuring. The results thow definite progress in the two years gom 11 to 18 in both figuring and in- Tpreting problems, The test in sh. consisted.of. dlc- ation, reproduction, the vse of given vords In original kentences and the ¥iting of a theme with an outline Tn the first threé types of work R#00d progress has been made by dren from 11 to 13 years old.
