LANGUAGES To be able to express one,s self correctly in two languages is the prerogative of many among us. We are convinced that to multi- ply our language abilities is to multiplv our chances of success. Clear, correct pronunciation, intelligent sell'-expression, logical techniques. current good usage. appraisal and development of creative abilities, and guidance in literary appreciation are the hasic objectives of any language course. These aims are achieved bv a varied and stimulating array of bona fide activities' which origi- nate in the pupil's own dav-by day language experiences. Thus the television, the radio, the class play, the class critique, oral reading. and class discussions. all are used as incentives to clear and effective speech. Our wealth of informal and functional grammar must be woven into interesting speech and writing activities to promote at all opportunities respect for good usage.
