2.März '19 - Krapfen und Kämpfen

Guten Tag!

Today we started out with Meine Woche as usual, and then we did a reading and translation exercise with each student being assigned their own pair of Züngenbrecher to work through.

For our lesson we reviewed the future tense, and then after each student produced a nice pile of times, places, and verbs, we did "prophetic mad libs," where each of us blindly reached into the piles of words to produce our "future."

Examples that stood out:
"Ich werde in 5 Minuten in Mexiko explodieren."
"Ich werde in 100,000 Jahre in Australien lesen."

After the break, we read through a historical article over the Battle of Teutoburg forest. Each student read through it and answered questions about it before we discussed it as a class.

The homework is to make a short presentation over a major historical figure from this event: Arminius, Governor Varus, Chieftain Segestes, Emperor Augustus.

Next week we will also make our Teutoburgerschlacht Poster.

Mit Vergnügen
