THIS COURSE IS FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE AT AN INTERMEDIATE LEVEL In this course we will be focusing on strengthening our German foundational language skills. We will be reviewing Grammar rules, practicing grammar, reading and discussing chapters from the book, answering comprehension questions and working on our writing skills. Everyone will be interacting with the teacher and the other students via Zoom meeting. We will be using the “Crashkurs Rechtschreibung" workbook by DUDEN and the chapter book "In 80 Tagen um die Welt" by Jules Verne (Around the world in 80 days) . This course includes a lot of interaction, practice and fun. Homework is a necessary part of learning a language! I will be sending homework home weekly. Note: For the class to take place it needs at least 3 students. All students need to have their camera on during class.
