MEADOW MOOR No Ordinary School By LAVOR K. CHAFFIN Deseret News Education Editor Not very much is ordinary Granite Districts Meadow Moor Eleexcept the mentary School in the Blue Room in pupils. For that matter, the whole school is not' very ordinary. It has instituted team' teaching, nongrading and individualizing instruction, is utilizing teachall on er aides and interns an ordinary budget. Unlike many schools where such programs are being tried, Meadow Moor has no special subsidy. For the more than 90 four th and fifth graders in the Blue Room" (because the carpet is blue) each day is busy and exciting. Mrs. Patricia Erickson heads a team of six adults which includes Mrs. Doris Cantrell, teacher; Mrs. Lucille Breur and Mrs. Ira teacher aides, and s, . Susanne Roylance and Janet Pace, student teachers from Brigham Young University. This team doesnt operate on a uniform or standard pattern. As Mrs. Erickson our program is explains, evolving.

Each morning each pupu picks up his own file folder. It includes tire days assign-- ments. Mornings, according to Principal William H. Doxey, are devoted to the three Rs." In the afternoons, Blue Room pupils and all upper level (4th, 5th and 6th grade) students choose special in-- t e r e s t studies, including French or Spanish, typing, writing, music, science and astronomy.

The papers are marked before noon. Often they are returned to pupils, along with some encouragment or help. Sometimes will be they marked see Mrs. Erickson," or Mrs. Cantrell. Both teachers call in pupils e on a basis during afternoon hours. One objective of the system. Mrs. Erickson explains, is to encourage each pupil to complete each assignment each day. The almost istant marking of papers is done so pupils will learn from their mistakes as well as their successes. Mrs. Erickson states. Sen. Frank E. Moss, said Sen.
