Trips to shops and markets, meals at various foreign restaurants, and visits to art galleries by different classes in the department gave many st udents added insight to the culture of the country where the language they study originated. The French and Spanish V classes collaborated on luncheons to sample the cultures of different lands. The Spanish class worked on projects in class; French students spent one quarter cooking and the rest of the year studying the literature and art of France. Latin has become more and more of a major language at school asmore people signed up for it this year than ever before. Our German students were able to view a new series of Guten Tag films, which gave them invaluable aid in their comprehension of the language. After being taught to understand and speak German in their second year, German III students are ready to learn the history of Germany taught in the native language. MRS.
