Music Spanish. Latin. . There is o new trend in foreign languages at L.C.H.S. Previously all languages and teaching techniques have involved primarily written work, but recently a new phase of learning has been instituted in the area of foreign languages. Much emphasis hos been placed upon the student's ability to communicate with each other in their foreign tongue. This new system follows much the same system as a young child's pattern for learning to speak and understand their language,- later drills in reading and writing are used. The plans for the new addition will add two new classrooms which will include thirty positions of electric headsets. These headsets will allow students to hear their own voices amplified as they repeat after the recording. There will be six additional positions in adjoining study rooms that will have full recorders to record the student's response. These recorders can be used for practice by students, or they may be used by teachers for testing students' pronunciation and ability to respond to questions. Mr. Jock Clinton Spaniih Mu.
