Language Department let's see now. Uitfray oopslay. It doesn't seem to he in this one, ther. Our world is shrinking. This is true in terms of the time it takes to travel between the nations of the world. The world may he getting smaller, but the number of students in our foreign language classes is increasing. Students are becoming interested in languages to better understand the history and background of our foreign friends. ln the first year of a language the student listens to recorded tapes of the country's native tongue and acquires the basic conversational phrases. The second year he deals with the grammar and reading skills of his particular language. During the Junior and Senior years the student 'studies the history and literature of the country. Thus he not only acquires the knowledge to speak a language but also a well-rounded back- ground concerning the country. Since Latin is not a spoken language, it is taught in a dif- ferent manner. In the first year of his studies, the student is acquainted with the vocabulary and grammar of the language. Then he is able to read the history and literature and appreciate its full meaning. .1 v .

OTIS MAYS B.S.-Western Mathematics Ah, the early-morning calm! But just wait 'til sixth period! Seneca's Mathematics Department deserves recognition fo: its continued development through the years. Beginning ir 1957 with only one full time math teacher, Mrs. Ramsey, ant Mrs. Miles, Mr. Hagan, Mr. Francis, Mrs. Kraft, Mrs. Tiller Mr. Reynolds, Miss Butler, Mrs. James, Mrs. Johnson, and Mr Holloman, teaching a math and core combination, it has growr to a department of nineteen full time math teachers who, Witt the completion of a materials center, strive to reach new goals Foremost of these goals is to promote better communication among the personnel of the educational system, thus providing better guidance and placement of students in their math courses. Presently, General Math, Algebra I, ll, and Ill, Geometry, and Math Functions are offered. It is hoped that in the future a better correlation of these subjects will be achieved to prevent overlapping of subject matter. 'I -,, ,:'P?...,. , , , 1. Q .
