Students Learn A Second Language French I students, Sherry Brower and Joey Parris recite their dialogue for Mrs. York. At first sight, the world of French is a world of tapes, writing, and dialogues. However, the French student at Eastern learns much more. Each month the classes read Ca Va, a French magazine about life and activities in France. Spanish is in its second year at Eastern. One-hun- dred and fourteen students chose it over other elec- tives. Spanish students have found the language to be a lot of fun, as well as hard work. Singing Spanish songs and games lighten the usual heavy schedule in the classroom and lab. 1 Martha Sutton York - A.B.

Julius Caesar Is Subject Of Sophomore Study The Sophomores were introduced to literature early in the year. Julius Caesar is a major study for discussion and memorization. The reading of Great Expectations and a writing unit also highlighted the thematic course of study. 1 Miss Alice Mae Yorke B.A. English, Lenoir Rhyne College 2 Miss Mary H.

Math, Too, Is A New Language Our math department has proven to be a real chal- lenge to many of the students at Eastern. Consumer math to advanced math is the range of courses that the student may undertake. Each individual course provides enjoyment and challenge to its students. To the sophomore it is proving a theorem, and to the juniors, solving equa- tions. As for the seniors, they find everything about advanced math a challenge! 1 Mrs. Margaret Wolff Lemmons B.S.
