20. Januar '18 - Karneval

Howdy howdy howdy,

Our Saturday was an interesting one, as always. We began our day with a pair of students doing "Meine Woche," and as always their PowerPoint skills put mine to shame because life is just unfair like that.

We went through our listening comprehension exercise, this week being "der Pony Pokey" from the German dubbed season 1 of My Little Pony.

The bulk of our time we spent doing a still deeper dive into the Future tense, its mechanics, meaning, and usage. As an exercise, we did what I call "The Hat of Prophecy," which is where we each wrote down several potential actions (e.g. "Pasta essen" or "König sein") on little bits of paper, drew out several, and had to match them with time statements, such as "in 100 Jahre..."
This ended up with such predictions for our individual futures as, "Ich werde in 20 Jahre ein Haus essen."

After lunch, we spent a good bit of time listening to our guest speakers, the Prinz and Prinzessin from the Rheinischer Verein, teaching the school all about Fasching.

Report cards were also handed out today, to the joy of everyone.

Mit Vergnügen.
