17.März - St. Patricks Tag

Guten Morgen,

Today we began with one last Hörverständnis exercise before our quiz this upcoming week. We did the song "Tage wie dieser" by Juli.
The quiz next week will include vocabulary from the following songs:

  • Rammstein - Ohne Dich, Ich Will
  • Elis - Sie Erfasst Mein Herz
  • Die Prinzen - Mein Fahrrad
  • Juli - Tage wie dieser
I would recommend using flash cards.

We learned another modal verb today from the lyrics of the song: sollen (should). Our repertoire of modal verbs is nearly complete now: sollen, wollen, können, dürfen, möchten

To hone our conversational skills, we played a game of "20 Fragen." It went surprisingly well, and I was also pleasantly surprised at the creativity of the kids. One of the unguessable things was me, oddly enough, though I stumped the kids at my turn: no one ever expects your topic to be "Ohio." 

To celebrate the day, we played bingo with regular verb conjugation, and each bingo won a green donut. That is, until we started to run low on time, so alternative donut-earning acts included conjugating "können" all the way and wishing the birthday girl (Jillian) a happy birthday in German. 

Homework for the week:
Study for the upcoming quiz.

Mit Vergnügen
