11.April '15 - Pause vorbei

Guten Tag,


Our day began rather normally with a song and a listening comprehension exercise, one that touched on the topic we had covered just before the break, the perfect or spoken past tense.

We reviewed formation of the perfect, and using this talked briefly about what we had all done over the Spring Break.

After the PAUSE, wherein the class took their turn cleaning up the lunch room (yay for not taking out the garbage anymore!), we diagrammed out the following concepts based on what we had learned so far this year in our cultural unit:

  • Advantages of living in Imperial Rome
  • Advantages of living as a tribe in Magna Germania
  • What both stood to gain from interacting with each other

And then we had Singprobe. 

The homework for this week, both for those present today and for those who will be present next week, is as follows and will assist us in the activity I have planned for us. 

"Who's Who? Of Teutoburg" 
-Choose one of the following characters from history:
  • Publius Quinctilius Varus (Governor)
  • Segestes
  • Arminius
All of these played a role in the failed colonization/invasion (which one it was is a matter of opinion) of Germania by the Romans. 
Describe auf Deutsch your chosen person while answering the following questions:
  1. Woher kommt er?
  2. Was hat er gedacht, wenn die Römer in Deutschland einkammen?
  3. Was war sein Job/was hat er hier gemacht?
  4. Was hat er gemacht, das macht diesen Konflikt besser or schlimmer? 
Completion of this assignment will greatly aid us in completing our goals for this unit in the few weeks we have remaining.
