Fri., Sept. 8

Remember to do the online matching practice through your Clever textbook account. I have already provided feedback for those who have done the activity.
To help practice the new and review the old vocab, do these activities from the online textbook. This list may look like a lot, but you have four days to work on these activities. You should be able to tell what is going on in the dialogs (make notes of anything you don't understand) and answer the accompanying questions. Some of the activities are just cultural readings.

Listen to and read along with the Dialog: Hallo! on Seite (page) 8. Try to imitate the speakers and talk along with them.

Use the information from the dialog to complete Übung (practice) 4 on S. 9.

Go on to the next Dialog: Wie geht's? on S. 10. Do the same thing here. Listen and repeat.

Use the information to complete Übung 6 on S. 11 (this is a self-practice that is similar to our next testing). Try to ask and answer the questions. We will follow up in class.
Then go on to Übung 7 on S. 11. Answer the questions according to the directions. (NOTE: The photo on S. 11 is of my favorite German city.)

Review Time: Look at the map on S. 12. How is your knowledge of greetings and goodbyes?
Kulturecke (Culture Corner): Read the material on S. 13. The top reading is not found in the print textbook.
You can preview numbers by listening and reading along over on S. 17.

It will be clear if you have not prepared. It is okay not to understand everything, but it is not okay not to try.
