Mrs. Patten Writes From Ahmed
BY MRS. BERNETTA H.
PULLEN
Relieve it or not, I'm still
promenading from one Institu
tion to another. Some valuable
material was given to me, pub
lished by Le Bureau Unlver
sitalre De Statistique et De
Documentation Scolaires et
Professionnelles, and “L' Or
ganization De L' Enselgnment
En France,” published by In
st it ■r e Pedogogique National
(1070)
How ever, dissatisfied, I have
enrolled in Alliance Francais
and was granted permission to
observe classes from the first
degree to the 4th degree in
cluding a course in Conversa
tion, audio-visual and labora
tory work. It was here that
president of the board of Ex
amine.-, M. Lebeque advised
me to travel" throughout the
provinces of France.
Having discussed my aims
with Parisians and Africans, I
met, it encouraged me more to
do research in how foreign
language is taught to our young
er children.
Since my NYU days, I’ve
been tremendously interested
In the Fies program (Foreign
Language in the Elementary
School).
It Is my philosophy that since
communication is the key to a
door, foreign language should
be studied and studied early.

This can only be done by start
ing with the child when ho’s
young. Here we have flexibili
ty of the tongue, more interest
anxiety and mimicry.
Today, our children are
travelling at all ages. More
and more of our students are
travelling abroad during the
summer. Here, I’ve met and
observed many college and
high school students with prob
lems.
Last spring, my 8 and 10
year old children joined a
group that flew to New York
for a day to visit ..Bronx Zoo,
Radio City and the UN. After
their return and on our way
home, I was told by one that
they enjoyed the trip and had
decided on plane to fly to Cape
Kennedy this spring. The first
thing that entered my mind
was, who knows where these
little minds may lead them
next 0 Will they be able to com
municate or will they have dlf- |
ficulty as I’m having 0
I feel that we, as foreign
language teachers, have a great
responsibility ahead of us, with
foreigners moving in with us
daily. Let us do as I was
once told “Get on the Ball I ',
and learn methods and techni
ques to prepare our children
for tomorrow.
I, too, once said I would |
never get to Paris to see and
know more about in reality
prizes for consumers,” ac
cording toO. D. Dearman, prod
uct manager, “and another 25
for eligible retail merchants.”
Four first prize winners are
awarded Chevy Blazers. One
hundred second prize winners
receive Kodak cameras, while
500 third prize winners receive
high-powered binoculars. Five
thousands fourth prizes are ad
venturer pipes.
Contestants enter the sweep
stakes by completing the

carries space for a retailer's
name and address.
that which I had taught. Now
I know how it can be done. Be
come affiliated with our org
anizations that endeavor to as
sist us in that which we are
attempting to do for our chil
dren.
My time is swiftly passing
away here with still more to
do before it terminates. My
weekends will be spent in the
French provinces with the
Parisiens,’ then to Switzerland,
Madrid and London. Then on
my way home to do a better
job this school year with that
which I’ve gained abroad.
Now that I’ve returned and
resumed my classroom studies,
my students constantly ask
me to tell them my experiences
in France. It was quite en
joyable even to me, While
thumbing through the pages of
a book, entitled “Travel In
France” it was the same feel
ing exDlaining the places,
monuments, etc. as I had when
I actually touched the Eiffel
Tower, Arede Triompbe and
pulled leaves from the trees
in Jardin du Luxemburg.
The next part of the lesson
was to show them slides that
I had taken while there. One
will never know who was more
thrilled during that class peri
od. I feel already that I have
given them something that
means a great deal to both of
us.
The first 25 prize-winning
consumers will automatically
win prizes for the retailers
whose name appears on the en
try blank. Grand prize for
retailers is an all-expense
paid trip for two to the Super
Bowl plus SSOO. There are four
first prizes of SIOO and 20 sec
ond prizes of SSO for retailers.
In addition to a wide variety
of displays and posters, the
sweepstakes is advertised in
SPORTS ILLUSTRATED maga
zine.
