oreign Language studies music C C r | 1 he world is getting I smaller and chances are -L students will be exposed to a variety of peoples with a variety of cultural backgrounds,” was the response given by Mr. Mel Janousek, teacher, when asked why students should take German. Students in German class learned to speak, read and write in one of four levels of German. Level I and II German classes went to the Benedictine Mission in Schuyler. Some of the students participated in the UNL Foreign Language Day. According to Spanish Teacher Mrs. Sandy Sypherd, students should take Spanish because people in the United States need to be aware of other lan- guages. She added that there are many Spanish-speaking people in the United States and it is important to be able to communicate with them. Sypherd said that she liked teaching Spanish because it incorporated the country’s music, relationship with the United States and the culture. Spanish students learned about the culture of Spanish-speaking countries as they moved through the levels. Jay Kracnow and Jeff Scoville show off their Spanish painting. Stephanie Hirschbrunner asks Chris Nansel what she thinks of her German valentine. “ I sure am tired of all these German assignments,” Robb Aerni thinks.

H istory helps avoid mistakes We are the products of past events, according to Mr. A1 Schnabel, social studies teacher. He feels social studies is important be- cause it teaches that freedom was gained from wars. “History classes help us learn facts about the past so we do not make the same mistakes in the future,” Schnabel said. Some field trips taken last year were by the Plains History classes to Mr. Gordon Steinbrook’s cabin to study game, ammunition and equipment. Also some students from the U.S. History classes were selected to go to the courthouse on County Government Day to ob- serve how the people in the departments of the county do their jobs. Two elective social studies classes were Introduc- tion to the Behavioral Sciences (IBS) and Marriage and the Family, both taught by Mr. Doug Terry. IBS was an introduction to anthropology, sociolo- gy and psychology focusing on human behavior. Marriage and the Family taught preparation for marriage, aging and death and a better understanding of the elderly and causes for divorce and suicide. Mr. Don Beckenhauer, another social studies teacher said, “Once, when John F. Kennedy was asked why we put a man on the moon, he answered simply, ‘because it is there’. Sometimes the advantage of taking a social studies class is simply because of the knowledge that is there.” 28 Academics
