Foreign language methods Northeast offers French, German, Latin, and Spanish in the foreign language depart-- ment. Students learn these languages by the ALM system. Records are taken home to lis- ten to dialogues in foreign language. Another important item that contributed to the study of a foreign language was the language lab. With individual booths and earphones, students could speak and hear themselves, and the teacher could speak to each student privately. Through the Latin classes this year a new club was formed. The new club was sponsored by Mrs. Krause. Any student could join: Latin was not a prerequisite. The purpose of the club was to study the life of the Romans. Mrs. Sturgeon looks over the language lab to make sure students are speaking French into their mikes. Helen Krause B. S., M.
