Namaste,

Today in class, we reviewed all seven our previous vocab words, and went over the homework that was to ask a parent using the word “Aap” and write down both the question and response in Hindi, checking and correcting grammar/pronunciation as we went along. We then transitioned to learning three more vocabulary words, which are:

विचार- Vichar, meaning thought or idea

प्रतिक्षा- Pratiksha, meaning waiting or anticipation

कठिन- Kathin, meaning difficult

Then, we learned the “6 big question words” in Hindi (who, what, when, where, how, why—> कौन क्या कब कहां क्यों कैसे). The students ended the class by each picking a question word and using it to ask a question in Hindi.

For homework, the students need to write a paragraph in Hindi, minimum 4 sentences, where at least 4 out of the 10 vocab words are used. Additionally, they need to ask someone two questions using two of the big question words and write down the questions they ask.

Today we focused on the 3 different ways to say You in Hindi. Aap, Tum and Tu. We also had the kids write a question down using one of these ways, the kids chose a topic such as Colors or Body Parts then they constructed a sentence on that topic. We also added 2 new words to our vocab list मेहमान (Guest) and त्योहार (Festival). Homework is to write a sentence using EACH vocab word (We have 7 total, look in the previous week to see the other 5 vocab words we learnt) and then to write a question to ask your parent using Aap and write the answer down in Hindi.
