22 Oktober - Freundschaft ist Magisch!

Grüße,


Today we proudly presented our family trees before the class, to start off with, and soon they shall be hung all over our new (old) classroom! Our class has moved again, this time back into the room I'd had for the last 3 years, so if you have trouble finding us, just look over by where all the other teachers are: I'm between Hr. Schäufele and Fr. Rill.

We did a review of possessive adjectives (mein/meine, dein/deine), regular verbs and also Haben and Sein, all to the tune of "Mein Herz Brennt" by Rammstein, the latest in our hörverständnis exercises. There will soon be a quiz over all the vocabulary we've learned from these various songs, by the way, so watch out for that in the near future!

Our primary activity of the day, after having learned interrogatives (was, wer, wo, wie, woher, wohin), was to make up our own imaginary friends. We described them and then drew pictures of them before presenting what we made to the rest of the class.

Finally, we learned a bit of negation, namely the uses for and meaning of nicht, nichts and nie/niemals.

For the last few minutes of class, the students were hilfsbereit enough to help me hang up all the new posters over DDR-era Berlin that were just generously provided for us! I let the kids choose how they wanted to arranged things, so this new classroom feels a bit more gemütlich now that we all had a chance to pitch in and make it pretty.


The moment you've all been waiting for...

The homework for this week is as follows:

Arbeitsbuch
Page 12, Exercise 11
Page 15, Exercise 1, 3
Page 19, Exercise 3

These will involve the set of verbs listed on page 28 of the textbook (also in their notes from today).

Mit Vergnügen!
