Pupils Converse in Spanish Class Spanish was one of the two languages taught here. Students learned the language by the audio-visual method. Ms. Caroline Perez was the Spanish teacher and she taught six classes. At the end of each learning unit some of the students were required to do a summary. They sometimes learned Spanish songs too.
