M FOREIG LA GLIAGE According to many Fox High School stu- dents one thing that makes the Senior High more interesting is the wider selection of classes. Among these choices there are the foreign languages. Fox offers a choice of French, German, or Spanish classes. Many students continue their study of a foreign language up to their fourth year. The ap- peal of a foreign country and its culture is so great for some students, that during the summer, they decide to take a trip to France, Germany, or Mexico.

Mrs. Petetit said her greatest satisfaction in being a teacher is believing that I have helped my students to have a better home and family life. In Child Development I she accomplishes this task by teaching about the human life cycle and doing pro- jects with children. To successfully teach these concepts, the students must be in- volved. We had to get a hardboiled egg and pretend it was a baby. We gave it a name and filled out birth certificate, explained senior Darla Capps. Then we carried the egg around for a week. 'The parents' could get a babysitter or have the father watch it for awhile. If we cracked the egg, our baby died. Then we had to fill out a death certifi- cate. We also had to evaluate what kind of parents we were. I really enjoyed it, and I learned a lot! concluded Darla. Tracey Wilson really enjoyed another project. We had a party for two, three, and four-year olds. We made placemats, bought food, and worked with the kids. It was great! It was a good class. I think it's a class that everyone should take because you learn so much, said senior Kim Julian. Since the students enjoy working with the children so much, a new class has been proposed. Mrs. Petetit commented, To further enlighten our students we have re- quested a Child Development Il class for 1983-84. This class will involve having preschool age children visit for a six-week period. Many areas of child development will be covered for which we have no time in Child Development l. Junior Patty Coats agrees that the additional class will help. There will be little kids to work with, and I think it's important to learn about family life. - .- - - - , - as X I Q t 5 M. sw 3,1 3' Mr. Brockman Mr. Holder Mr. Morganfeldt Mr. Osgood Top left - Junior Danny Lipina cuts pieces of wood for his project.

fm Momes' fthe children's cornerj and the male stripper for Ms. Pollock's birthday. One reason I enjoyed this class was our teacher, Ms. Pollock, who makes her classes more enjoyable. Sprechen Sie Deutsch? fDo you speak German? J Ja, ein Bisschenf' IYes, but only a little.J Machst du Spass? CDO you have fun?j Ja, ich mache Spass gem. lYes, I really do have fun.j Tim Braun, sophomore, said, I took German because everyone said it was ea- sier than French or Spanish, and my sister also had it. I plan to keep taking it, because it will be easier to study when I take the language in college. Mrs. Heavey makes the class more enjoyable by doing a lot of outside activities instead of all bookwork. HabIas espanol? fDo you speak Spanish?J Un poco solomente. IOnIy a Iittle.J Tienes un buen tepo? fAre you having a good time?J Si, pero esta muy dificil! IYes, but this is very hardlj Stacey Johnson, junior, stated about Spanish: I have been to Mexico a few times and I go down to Texas every year near the border where the people speak Spanish. I decided I wanted to speak Span- ish, so I could communicate with them. I'm going to Mexico this summer on the stu- dent exchange program. My teacher, Mrs. Kozlen suggested to me that taking part in this program would broaden my knowl- edge of Spanish. by Stephanie Bond I5i'fA fr'W'ih -1!!'AVaFi'A'i Center left - Mrs. Heavey discudses German comic books with Keith Carey as Rochelle Braun and Nita Thum watch.
