Spanish Students Prepare for Trip Hola! Como estas? Estoy bien grades. ( Hello! how are you? I’m fine, thank you. ) Such conversation was heard during Spanish classes as students greeted their friends. Mrs. Sally McDevitt's Spanish Club worked to raise money for an educational Spanish trip to South Florida. Through class participation, students learned many Spanish words and grammatical terms. They also learned about Spanish people and their customs. Familiar sounds included such popular music as Love Will Keep Us Together, recorded in Spanish lyrics. Students also spent much of their time translating such Spanish songs as Eres Tu. Sally McDevitt, Ohio University, B.S. Mrs. McDevitt discusses the homework assignment with Lori Bouie and Karen Rudd. Spanish students spend the last few minutes of class preparing for their dialogue presentations. 44
