Homework Expectations: Students should be completing 20 minutes of reading three nights a week Monday - Thursday.  Students can choose to read a physical book, ebook, audiobook, newspaper, magazine, etc. They have time during the school day to go down to the library and/or pick a book from my classroom library. They also have access to an online book platform called Sora that has ebooks, audiobooks, and magazines that they should be familiar with at this point.

*Ms. Papinsick will be starting the year with students, and Ms. Procek will be back late October.

It has been a great start to the school year. 

Students have been learning the classroom rules, focusing on German sounds and common cognates (words that look or sound alike from one language to the next). 

We have our first summative assessment on Wednesday, October 7th on Unit 1. They worked during class on review and we will have a brief review session on Wednesday before the exam.

For spooky season, we will be watching the 1922 version of Nosferatu. We will talk about silent films, and how this classic German film has made a lasting impact on Hollywood. We will practice vocabulary associated with the film. 

Please remind your student to practice at least 10-15 minutes per night of vocabulary, and to check Google Classroom for any assignments. Let's build the good habits now!
