It V' ,:4,2'fA'l:v!.3 f Self-expression was a goal set for all students by teachers in the Language Department. Students of English not only studied the works of others, but also analyzed them in themes and expressed their views in reviews of books. movies, and plays. Many attended live performances and visited art galleries to gain a first-hand experience of the many forms of self-expres- sion. Other students were becoming aware that there are ways other than the English language by which to express oneself as they were introduced to French. Some of these conducted more in-depth studies in French ll and French Ill. Study was enhanced and improved for them in November and December when a native French teacher aide assisted with her first-hand knowledge of France and the language. rs urivtic funn s llltllllli 1 wr Mrs. Elizabeth Atkins ttop far leftl gene- rates discussion in English class.
