Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes
Photograph article dated April 3, 1961 partially reads, "Elementary teachers in the West Valley have discovered a new way to brighten up science instruction. They illustrate lessons with live animals - everything from goats to guinea pigs and chameleons to kangaroo rats...The kids get a chance to see and to touch animals, rather than just to read about them." Pictured are West Valley science teacher Irwin Flacks with Gerard Mogab, 10, and Cyndie Smith, 10, students at Andasol Avenue School in Northridge.
