Language The two foreign languages which are being offered in Roosevelt at present are, Latin 3 and 4, and Spanish 3 and 4. In Latin 3 the students are required to make a Latin scrapbook, and work in a group to design and put up a bulletin board. Latin 4 has many things in store for the pupil, such as, field trips, oral reports, spell downs and various others. Spanish, taught by Mrs. Jean Mikkelsen, also has many interesting activities. Other than the regular textbook, they use records, Spanish newspapers, and films. On the lighter side, there are songs, plays, and parties all done in Spanish of course. The main obiective of these courses is to promote a greater under- standing of foreign countries. Si ! And I Told her This is one way to chalk up brownie points . 26
