Grammar Review

This was a hassle both to make and publish to the web, so let's hope that someone out there finds it helpful!


Grammar Review for test tomorrow.

Monday, October 31, 2011

Week of October 31

We will continue with presentations today and maybe on Wednesday.

On Thursday, you will have a modal verb and future tense quiz. You will be filling out a blank chart similar to this one. You might want to use this as a study resource.

Your Fussball Freitag challenge will be on the house vocabulary on pages 236-237. Remember you can pick up a point for your team if you bring in a picture of your house that is labeled. Your Fussball Freitag challenge will also be in a different format than the last two, so be sure to be prepared with the vocabulary knowledge.

Due 10/27

The final draft of your "friend" composition is due today. Please type and double space, or if this is not possible, write your final copy in ink. Include your rough draft along with your final.

The editing sheet that we used on Monday is available here.

This form allows you to identify what you need to be checking, which you can then use your notes or book to check.

You will be signing up for your "friend" verbal presentations starting on Monday. Remember, you can use bulleted notes with your friend's information on them, but no complete sentences.

Thursday, October 20, 2011

Due 10/21

You will need to complete Ubung 13 for Friday.

Your Klaus/Norbert dialog is postponed, so we'll discuss that more tomorrow.

Your Fussball Freitag challenge will be based on your ability to conjugate modal verbs, know their meaning, and use them correctly in sentences. You may want to review these to be prepared for tomorrow.

Repost test information

So, apparently something is a little crazy with my google docs. I'm reposting that information as part of a super long message until I get that figured out. (Update: I think I figured it out now, so the link in the previous post should work, but I'll leave this up just in case.)
