After learning the basic principles, they used these facts for good structure and composed their own conversations in Spanish. Latin students labored at translating stories of Roman mythology and studying the history of the Roman people. They also prepared projects, depicting the life styles of the early Romans. Through their study of Latin, students found that most English words are derived from Latin words, proving that Latin is not quite as dead a language as it is believed to be. This year, as in the past, Junior and Senior English classes prepared term papers during the second semester. One Junior English class, taught by Mrs. Geneva Wickens, had six weeks of speech. Each student made his own speeches and then delivered them to the class. Junior High English classes encouraged the reading of books by means of book reports. As in junior high, the Freshmen and Sophomore English classes studied sentence structure, the eight parts of speech, and the importance of a large vocabulary.
