Use of calculators in physics
and chemistry also reduces the
errors, as well as the time
required for computation,
according to science teachers.
"The basic math functions
should be mastered before the
calculator can be used as a
supplementary aid," explained
Mr. Aaron Ford, chemistry
teacher.
"The calculator should be
used in conjunction with, not
in place of, a basic math,"
commented Mr. Robert Jones,
physics instructor. "I let my
students punch out the
necessary components and
then let them perform the
math themselves,· · he added.
"I don' t want them to use it
(the calculator) as a crutch
because one day the battenes
may be run down," he noted.

Sophomores face 'terrible sight'
·
Mr. Gene Williams, a year veteran of the WMHS
biology department, shares some of his views on the
course required for sophomores.
Amoeba, worms, snakes, and lizards,
Mushrooms, frogs, and chicken gizzards–
Oh, such a terrible, terrible sight
To enter this room-Ugh! A parasite!
As I live and breathe
I think I'm about to heave,
Looking at the things
I
dread
Makes no difference to me-alive or dead.
