JUNIOR SEMINAR —Part of the 20 fourth, fifth and sixth graders who meet
after classes at the Olney Elementary School to discuss great books under
the new Junior Great Books proqram in county schools are shown here with
Junior Great Books Program Gains Popularity
Ten-year-old Bobby barely could wait for class to begin. When
it did, he blurted out:
"I don't agree with Aesop. One bad turn does not deserve
another. That's against God’s will.”
The class discussion was off In a babble of young voices.
The straw-haired flhh-grader had done his homework. His
extra-curricular homework, that Is. And he’d given lt a lot of
thought.
Bobby and his classmates
are among several hundred pub
lic school youngsters In the
county who meet after school
every two weeks to discuss the
world’s great literature under
the Junior Great Books pro
gram.
The Idea Is to encourage
young people to read the books
which have enriched our world,
think and talk about them, and
listen to other opinions.
“They Just love lt,” seems to
be the consensus of parents and
discussion leaders.
For the most part, the stu
dents feel lt an honor to be
members of this junior semi
nar. As one parent put lt,
“ther’s something of a scram
ble to get In.”
“Getting In”, however, Is left
entirely up to the children. The
program leaders frown on ac
cepting members simply be
cause their parents want them
to participate. One leader said
these are the ones she tries to
discourage.
The program, underway for
the first time In several coun
ty schools this past fall Is un
der the Great Books Foundation.

! , Pyle Junior High School with
approval of the county school
! board was the Initial lntroduc-
tion of the Junior Great Books

though the Great Books Foun

inars organized.
Now Junior groups are being
’ conducted at West Rockville,

schools have had the program

1 Mrs. LaVerne Miller of Hy

tative for the Washington
metropolitan area, says that
this year about 39 elementary
and junior high schools in the
county will be affected by the
program.
Sponsored at Individual
schools by the local PTA’s for
the most part, the junior dis
cussions are led by adult volun
teers, trained under the Great
Books Foundation leader train
ing course. Two courses have
been held in the county. A third
gets underway Jan. 20.
The children who participate
may be average, good or ex
cellent readers. Most impor-
enthusiast addressed the meet
ing.

and In exploring new subjects.
The discussion sessions nor
mally run a little over an hour.
One leader says her group of
9-12 year-olds easily could go
an hour and a half.
Many parents feel the pro
gram already has Increased
their children’s ability to ex
press themselves and has di
rected their reading habits.
One parent, who says both
she and her husband are “avid
readers,” thinks the program
Is “terrific.” She feels that
reading Is a habit and that “a
person can get Into a habit of
reading good as well as bad
literature.”
Another parent says the pro
gram at her school suffers be
cause the group Is too small.
She feels this tends to inhibit
the members and discussion Is
not as lively as In a larger
class.
Along the same lines one
leaders finds that elementary
