Happy Friday everyone!
German students continued singing their alphabet, well yelling at the top of their lungs. Second period is blowing me away! Anyways, German students learned their numbers and to practice we played BINGO. There is a homework assignment to continue practice numbers and it is due when class begins on Monday.
Spanish students received a lot of information today. They were given their numbers and vocabulary one sheet. They had verbal activities with partners and a lesson about TÚ vs. Usted. Both words mean “you” in Spanish. Tú is the informal/familiar form. We use this when speaking with friends, family members etc. Usted is formal and we use this when we need to show respect.
French students chose their names today (ran out of time yesterday), familiarized themselves with their textbook, learned the alphabet and numbers and learned the number son.

Eins, zwei Polizei! German students heard a cool techno song today about a German rhyme for numbers. It can be compared to our ryhme One, Two Buckle My Shoe. They had a lot of fun with this! Students received vocabulary one sheet today (quiz on this will be Monday). To help the students practice these new words, we had a packet to fill out. If the packet was not completed in class, it needs to be done as homework. (The packet is too large to create a link).
