Too great emphasis cannot he , . i placed upon the fact, that atypical Nearly 2.00I1.0UO golf ballR have pupils are not children who ar been Imported by the.tjnlted States subnormal in Intelligence. Inmost' ;lr this year, all except 07 from eases just tho opposite is true. The the United Kingdom,. . psual case, of utypleallty involves ' ' ' a pupil whose uuviljfence quotjeni Is' nurmal or above . norntal, but who Is'.u nable io progress at a nor- mal rate in some .one specific sub- Ject, due' to .improper functioning of some psychological factor . in volved. The expense of this speci al work is slight and especially justifiable because only children, the correction of whose defects, will be of inestimable valuo to the community, are Involved. .SjegrcBntioii Nii'csMiry The process followed consists of segregating those children who cannot successfully employ tlie methods of learning that the ma jority of pupils use, and gjving them special work under. the guid ance .of an .expert. The children selected are first diagnosed, and tho cause for .their trouble deter mined as. specifically as possible. Then' carefully prepared exercises are used to .overcome tlie difficul ties. Once a pupil has demonstra ted his or her ability lo progress at a normal rate .in the given sub ject, he is shifted back to the regu lar clasy. . ' .Pupils who are. retarded due to poor teaching in other school sys tems, are not Uiclude.t in tlie atypi cal c1.-i.ks, but are given enough ex tra attention ,by the principal of tlie school to make up this defi ciency. There arc sixteen children ' in the atypical class being conducted by Miss liasford at the Washing ton school, selected as a result of a personal survey conducted by the instructor. The group is com posed of pupils selected from the first six grades of the elementary schools, and includes those retard ed in arithmetic, spelling, nnd reading. Hair nay Ilasls One-half day of Instruction for atypical pupils was offered during: the summer .school last summer.; and the work will continue through out the winter oh a half-day basis.
