Today began like any other day. We had German school until school was over.
After doing Meine Woche, we went over a song from the German dub of My Little Pony, "der Perfekte Hengst" (the perfect stallion).
Our lesson today revolved around the Battle of Teutoburg forest. We read popcorn-style as a class through a packet I put together, discussing the background, events, and historical consequences of this key event in German history. This tied together our previous lessons on the comparative military tactics, beliefs, and lifestyles of the Germanic tribes and of the Roman Empire.
This segued into our project, due next class period April 7th. Each student is assigned a historical figure, pivotal in the events at Teutoburg, to make a slide presentation over. This must be complete and ready to show next class.
Mit Vergnügen~
