Due Monday

(Note that oe = o with umlaut, and ue = u with umlaut. That's how you do it when you don't know how to make an umlaut online...)

For Monday, you need to be able to conjugate the verbs:



koennen
duerfen
wollen
muessen

Forms of these verbs are in your book on pages 161 or 163.

Also, Wednesday is the due date for your retake of the page 156 vocabulary quiz. I recommend studing with your sponsor and make some practice quizzes for yourself.

Due Thursday

You should be practicing the stem changing verb forms!

Due Wednesday

We will finish our presentations today! Make sure to use some time to review your vocabulary and phrases, both past and present.

Due Tuesday

On Tuesday, you will be presenting your accusation dialogs. You and your partner must write 2 dialogs so you will have a turn playing both the "accuser" and the "denyer". Each dialog should use a different verb, choosing from: nehmen, lesen, sprechen, and essen.

Here is the format:

Student A: Accusation (to teacher)
Student B: Denial
Student A: Re-accusation (directly to student. "Doch..)
Student B: Admission

You will not be using notes for your presentation.

Quiz on Monday!

You will have a vocabulary quiz on the new vocabulary in the dialog on page 156 in your book. Your quiz will also include knowing the meanings of the following verbs:


fahren
essen
geben
lesen
nehmen
sprechen

The next step will be to conjugate these stem changing verbs, so if you'd like to get a head start on studying that this weekend, you can. Their forms are explained on page 196.

Schoenes Wochenende!

Due 9/23

Today we worked in our teams to create skits about people discussing food. We'll be presenting them on Friday, so we'll see which Mannschaft has the most creative skit!

Due 9/21

You should complete making flashcards for the food vocabulary introduced to you on page 156. You might find it useful to use the end of the chapter vocabulary for articles and plural forms (page 189).

Today in class we answered questions about the Lesestuck and discussed proficiency grading.

We also read Lesestueck (below), and wrote questions about Klaus in our teams. Please make sure you are reviewing chapter 1-3 vocabulary and new words we've learned in class.

Hallo! Ich heiße Klaus und ich bin fünfzehn Jahre alt. Ich habe einen Bruder, der auch fünfzehn ist: wir sind Zwillinge! Ich komme aus Berlin, aber ich wohne seit 2 Jahren in München. Jetzt wohne ich in München mit meinem Vater
und meiner Stiefmutter. Meine Mutter wohnt noch in Berlin. Belin liegt im Osten, aber München liegt im Suden. Ich habe auch eine Schwester aber sie wohnt noch in Berlin mit meiner Mutter. Meine Großeltern wohnen in Berlin in der Nähe von meiner Mutti. In meiner Freizeit spiele ich gern Fußball, aber ich
spiele nicht gern Klavier. Ich gehe auch gern in die Disko und besuche meine Freunden. Im Sommer, fahre ich nach Berlin für einen Monat. Ich finde die Schule nicht schlecht, aber manchmal habe ich zu viel Hausaufgaben. Meine Lieblingsfächer sind Englisch und Französisch. Ich lerne Sprachen gern! Ich habe
Chemie nicht gern, und oft become ich eine 4 und manchmal eine 5. Das ist sehr schlecht!

Due 9/15

On Thursday, we will be having a little quiz reviewing the vocabulary of Chapter 1 in the German book. Make sure also to review the new words and phrases we learned on Tuesday and Wednesday that you added to your German Heft.
