Foreign Languages Motivate Students Communication is very important. Being able to write and speak English is expected, but what of other lan- guages? French, German and Spanish were offered to freshman students this past school year, as electives. Mrs. Joann Patton, who taught German, and Miss Robyn Snow, teacher of French and Spanish, both agreed that learning to communicate in a foreign lan- guage is important. Concerning her goal as a German teacher, Mrs. Pat- ton said, My goal is to teach the language, develop an interest in the culture and the people, and to pass on some of the enthusiasm that i feel. All foreign language students had the opportunity to go on a trip to a foreign country. The French classes went to Montreal and Quebec, Canada, over spring break. Spanish students went to Spain in June, and German students went to Germany, Austria, Switzer- land and Liechtenstien, also in June. The different lan- guage clubs held fund raisers for these trips and those who went also paid a part of the cost. Both of the teachers stated that the most important thing taught was communicating fluently in the studied cultures. Korb, Michael Kreft, Tamara Kreuz, Mark Krupp, Denise Kruzel.
