21 April '13 - Eilmeldung

Guten Morgen,

Getting to school yesterday was quite an adventure due to the flooding still rampant in some areas, but I eventually made it.
Most of our class time was spent on an activity known as "Der Tagesschau," wherein the kids paired off, one of them being a news anchor, the other being the one who was reported over. So while one of them read off the "breaking news, happening right now!" the other acted out what was being reported. Many paper houses were stomped on by many mysterious, radioactive giants from outer space.

This was followed up by a game of surrealist charades after lunch (the joy of trying to act out "orange juice" knows no bounds) and then the singing practice.

For homework, I would like the former activity to be continued.

Hausaufgabe:
Make your own news report. Report on something that is currently happening somewhere, stating the following:

  • Your name and the name of your station
  • What is happening
  • Who is doing it
  • Where they are
The story must have an ending. If a giant is running around down town, the Army must come in and stop it, etc., to bring it to a close. It should last for at least 2-3 minutes. 
Whatever your script says, another student is going to have to act out on-the-fly at the beginning of class. 


Mit Vergnügen
