Ooops! I think I was on a vacation!

Where did the last few days go??  

Wednesday 9/15 - Crazy Hair Day
I got to see some nice hairdo's today, even many of the teachers got into it.
German 1-They learned their ABCs today in German.  They spelled their names & sang the ABC song!!
German 2-The students had their first quiz of the year - chapter 8A vocabulary.  They continued their work on possessive adjectives with worksheet page 116.  They also worked on a vocabulary worksheet.

German 3-The students also took a quiz today on chapter 3A vocabulary.  Then they read pages 70-71.  They will work on exercise 8 page 72 and workbook exercise 5 page 49 today and tomorrow.  
German 4-The students had a quiz too on chapter 8A vocabulary.  They they worked on adjective endings.  They will be working on exercises 4-10 pages 232-235 today and tomorrow.

Tuesday 9/14 - Class Color Day
German 1-They watched a video on German commercials and guessed the product being sold.  Some were very obvious and others were a little more challenging.  
German 2-They continued their practice of possessive adjectives with exercises 6, 7 on page 228 and workbook exercises 5, 6 on page 116.  This has been somewhat challenging for them.  German grammar can  be confusing-but I think they're getting it.
 German 3-They continued working on the narrative past tense.  They finished the assignments that they began on Monday.
German 4-They finished their reading passage they began on Monday and worked on exercises 11, 12 pages 239-240 and workbook exercise 16 page 141.

Monday 9/13 - Jumpsuit Day
German 1-They continued learning about German geography by working on pages 32-35 in their geography packet.
German 2-They started a new grammar section today.  They learned about possessive adjectives.  Then they began working on exercises 4, 5 page 227.  
German 3-They also started a new grammar unit on the narrative past tense.  They will work on exercises 4-7 on pages 68-69 today and tomorrow and do workbook exercises 3, 4 on pages 47-48.
German 4-They began a reading section about the Oktoberfest in Munich.  They read and translated pages 236-238.  

Friday 9/10
German 1-They began a worksheet packet on German geography.  They learned where some of the more important cities and rivers where located and then did pages 29-31.
German 2-They read a reading passage on page 224 in class together and then did exercises 3 on page 225 and workbook exercise 4 on pages 132-133.
German 3 & 4-They began their first movie.  We will be watching the movie "The Tunnel" on the next few Fridays.  The story centers around some East Berliners who escape to West Berlin right after the wall goes up.  They then begin construction on a tunnel to bring more people into West Berlin.  The movie is very good and is in the German language with English subtitles.
