Preparing for college, many AIHS students chose to study Spanish, French, Latin, or German to earn their two units in language. Spanish students gained fluencv ' in speaking by writing out exercises as home- work and reciting them in class. During the second semester a Cuban student teacher, Senor Norberto Gutierrez told tales of his Spanish background. Students in first year Spanish gave talks on everyday experiences, such as going to the store; second year students wrote book reports on Platero y Yo, Dona Perjecta. and many other Spanish stories. While Spanish students read stories and gave talks, French students saw filmstrips in the language lab, sang French songs, tape recorded lessons, and kept notebooks. Two of the films that they saw were on southern France and the Renaissance period. First year Latin students listened to records and studied basic gram- mar. Students in Latin II continued the study of grammar and read legends of famous men such as the storv- of Horatiiis at the bridge. ' ocabular - notebooks including gender, root words, and parts of speech helped when reviewing at exam time. In advanced Latin, stu- dents translated legends, Cicero ' s orations, and the history of the Gallic Vars in Caesar ' s time. Making vocabulary notebooks, going to the language lab, and having question-and-answer periods in.spired German students. In addition, they studied German custon s and historv-, frequently record- ed conversations in German, and listened to German records. 20
