As well as the usual class activities, there were a variety of outside events in which one could partici- pate: the French students' and Latin Club's banquets, the German Octoberfest, and the Spanish classes' caroling at Christmas. Also, some teachers involved their pupils in ethnic cooking experiences during school time. Besides the fun one can have in foreign languages, a lot of verb tenses and grammar must be studied for a good understanding of the course. The effects of this may even extend to other academic areasg for instance, a better understanding of English may grow out of the study of a second lan- guage.
