German 1B/10B: Assignment for 5/12: Kapitel 7

Continue to work on Kapitel 7, workbook/lab manual.  These are to be handed in on the evening of the final, so that you can use them as study guides.  10B students, please hand in the lab manuals on the evening of the final. 
   
THEMA 3, p. 212 

Die Jahreszeiten- Das Wetter 

Write answers to A, 1-7 and complete B, 1-6, match with the pictures below. 

Study Neue W
örter, p. 213 and Wortschatz, das Wetter, pp. 232-233.  Make flashcards with Quia or some other program that you might know of for your smart phone. 

Akt. 7, p. 214.  Write correct alphabet answers, using the map as your reference. 

Listen to Akt. 8, p. 215 and check answers.  Be sure to note the temperatures.  

Read "Landeskunde-Info", p. 215.  

WRITE a 2-3 sentences for Akt. 9, p. 215 to read to the class.  Give the weather for your actual "Heimatstadt", rather than where you currently live. 

THEN, write a brief weather report for a day in the past: Gestern, Vorgestern.  Use the present perfect tense.  Write 2 sentences using the comparative and als. You can use the present perfect or not.    Beispiel: Heute ist es wärmer in Oakland als in San Francisco. 

THEN,  watch the short video (at the end of this page) and describe the weather.  Magst du solches Wetter oder nicht?  Warum oder warum nicht?  

Grammatik im Kontext: 



Read "Expressing comparisons: The Comparative".  p. 226: review notes, esp.  at bottom of p. 226, "als" and fill in the blanks for Übung 13, write comparative sentences using the example as a guide for Übung 14.  Note: you could use actual weather conditions for answers to 5-7.    

Note that, unlike in English, you would not try to form the comparative in German using "mehr" (the equivalent of "more").  

Read Expressing Equality, p. 228 and write 7 sentences for Übung 15.  

Übung 16 will be done in class, but it would be helpful if you formulate questions beforehand.  




Review of assigned sections of Kapitel 7 test.  

The general topics for the final and final presentation (1B/10B, respectively) will be posted separately.
