SISSY OF GERMANY Sissy Grieb, our foreign exchange stu- dent from Germany, added interest to Mr. Warshall's German I and II classes this year. She gave the students first hand knowledge about her country's language and customs. Sissy was our first exchange student from Germany and also the first exchange student to help teach a class. In German I the class is taught the basics of the language. They learn to con- struct sentences and to converse using sim- ple phrases. German II students had the good for- tune to have Sissy as a member of the class. She helped the class to converse with as little English as possible. With the help of our foreign exchange student both classes were able to over- come parts of the language barrier. (ABOVE LEFT) Sissy visits with her friends before school and at noon. They talk of the things that they have in common. Sissy enjoys sitting in the Home Ec Room and telling of her life in Germany compared to ours.
