SPANISH AND LATIN LANGUAGE During the 1964-65 school year the languages taught at Brush High School included Spanish and Latin. Mrs. Eleise Bloom, left, and Mrs. Queen, not shown, shared the Spanish schedule; however, Mrs. Bloom was the instructor for all of the Latin classes. Doris Weiss, Carolyn Herrmann, and Bonnie Herr- mann all listen carefully to a class lecture. Equipment plays a large role in the teaching of any foreign language, and at Brush High, earphones and tape recorders are used to their fullest extent. Linda Christensen and Tom Travis are taking a lan- guage test. 26

COMPOSE THE 64-65 COURSES Paulette Pollock listens attentively to a Span- ish tape. The study of any foreign language helps the student to converse fluently in the language he has chosen, and also helps him to understand the sometimes complicated struc- ture upon which the language is based. Latin is especially helpful in the study of the English language because many of the words are based on Latin roots. Clarice Herbst, Teresa Peterson, Philip George, Paulette Pollock, Sherry Newlin, Linda Christensen, and Tom Travis all study tapes in Spanish II. 27
