It was found that nine out of
ten eighth graders actually study
on school asmgnments at home.
If students are to receive home-
work. what study conditions are
necessary before they can actu-
ally do a good job at home?
The following standards were
selected by this Montana school:
1. A definite study location.
2. A desk or table for his use.
3. A study location free from
major distractions--if not a sep-
arate room at least a quiet area

4. Freedom from loud noises or
talking and other distractions by
family members.
5. Freedom from home emotion-
al stresses.

A survey of 334 eighth graders
attending this Montana school was
made using these standards, It
was found that tim number of
students llomes not meeting each
standard ranged from approxi-
matel.y one out of every ten to
about five out of every ten.
The problem is to make both
parents and pupils aware of the
basic conditions necessary for pro-
per home study.

The results of this survey are quite
interesting. The questions were
based upon the standards already
stated. Following m a list of ques-
tions asked and the resnlts:
HOW DOES YOUR HOME
STUDY PLACE RATE?
1. I have a definite or special
place where I do my home-
work.
Yes (138) No (42)
Comment: This question was an-
swered in the affirmative even
when the place of study was in
front of the television or beside the
radio. The study place might not
have been ideal but it was a defi-
nite place Where the studying was

4. I have the use of a diction-
ary when I study.
Yes (152) No (28
5. I listen to the radio when
I study.
Yes (77) No (103)
Comment: Several student stat-
ed that they could work better
when the radio was playing quiet-
ly.
6. I watch television when I
study.
Yes (68) No (112)
Comment: It would appear from
experience that it would almost be
impossible to do a good job of
studying and watch television at
the same time, yet nearly 38 per
cent of the students stated that
this was what they did.
7. I ask my teacher for help
when I do not understand my
assignments.
Yes (144) No (36)
Comment: We know that many
students are shy ab0t asking fur-
ther help.
$. I have avathtble time for my
homework.
Yes (162) No (18)
Comment: The number of yes
answers was a little surprising in
view of the fact that a number of
parents have told us that their
students have no time available.
We feel sure, however, that each
student was honest on this ques-
tim. It was stated that he might
have to miis a favorite television
program or stay home for the eve-
ning or refrain from using the tel-
ephone too much. Be sure to at-
tend the P.T.S.O., neeting in the
-Junior High School fiuditoi-ium on
the evening of February 12, and
hear this and the other problems
discussed further.
The teachers of the Shelton Jun-
ior High School feel that students
need homework to fix in their
minds the new material presented
in class; that no two students
work at the same speed, i.e., that
one can finish his problems in
class; that others need more time
to complete the assignments; that
superior students need more of a
challenge than it is possible to
give them in the average class-
?onto.

meeting February. 12 at 8:00 p.m.
in the Junior High School auditor-
ium.
Two lively playlets will be acted

6. I watch television when I
study.
Yes (68) No (112)
Comment: It would appear from
experience that it would almost be
impossible to do a good job of
studying and watch television at
the same time, yet nearly 38 per
cent of the students stated that
this was what they did.
7. I ask my teacher for help
when I do not understand my
assignments.
Yes (144) No (36)
Comment: We know that many
students are shy ab0t asking fur-
ther help.
$. I have avathtble time for my
homework.
Yes (162) No (18)
Comment: The number of yes
answers was a little surprising in
view of the fact that a number of
parents have told us that their
students have no time available.
We feel sure, however, that each
student was honest on this ques-
tim. It was stated that he might
have to miis a favorite television
program or stay home for the eve-
ning or refrain from using the tel-
ephone too much. Be sure to at-
tend the P.T.S.O., neeting in the
-Junior High School fiuditoi-ium on
the evening of February 12, and
hear this and the other problems
discussed further.
The teachers of the Shelton Jun-
ior High School feel that students
need homework to fix in their
minds the new material presented
in class; that no two students
work at the same speed, i.e., that
one can finish his problems in
class; that others need more time
to complete the assignments; that
superior students need more of a
challenge than it is possible to
give them in the average class-
?onto.
Plan to attend the P.T.S.O.
meeting February. 12 at 8:00 p.m.
in the Junior High School auditor-
ium.
Two lively playlets will be acted
out on the stage. These playlets
portray a problem but do not at-
t.empt a solution. The lively dis-
cusmons to follow should bring
