German Class Welcomes Everyone!

By Bo Bauer, OHS Torch reporter

           

“Begrüßen alle Schüler” said Mrs. Rebecca Meissner, which means welcome all students; she invites any OHS students to join her exciting German class; where you learn all about German culture.

           

Mrs. Meissner has taught this class for 17 years. Even though she didn’t start out in majoring in German class, she has done a fantastic job teaching it.

There are many activities that go on in German class. The biggest part that students learn about is grammar and the culture, but there are tons of other exciting activities to do too. One of the most fun things that the students like to do is the occasional German food brought into class. Dancing is another part of German class that different students like doing, while listening to the song of the week.

           

            Two of Olympia’s brightest minds, Levi Litwiller and Dallas Spencer, have also taken all German class and both got the German Dept. Award and got shiny medals. They had a lot of fun in the class and worked very hard to get these medals.

            “I loved German class because of all the food, mostly the schnitzel,” said Dallas. This was one of the activities that Dallas loved to do in German class.

            “Having Mrs. Meissner tell me to not get an epidermal shot was one of the funniest moments that I can remember,” said Levi. This was his most fun memory being in German class.

These are just some memory’s made by students at Olympia. Mrs. Meissner is always ready to have more fun and make new memories with all students at Olympia.

Both Dallas and Levi agreed that German class was fun and would recommend it to anyone to take. Mrs. Meissner even agreed that the freshman do just as well as any sophomore, junior, even a senior if they were to take her class.
