Lesson 5

We did our hello, ABC and good bye song from the previous lessons.

Then we practiced greetings from the previous lessons, did colors and reviewed the numbers from 0-20 by playing games.

I started phonetic sound cards with the kids this week. We are going with Thomas Lotterer's cards on this site:
Here's a printable version. If you want to print these cards, check if everything is arranged right before printing.

lesson 4

We did our hello, ABC and good bye song from the previous lessons.

We practiced greetings and simple conversation again. We will do this for a weeks now, so the kids will have it down and can say it without my help.

The kids did very well saying their numbers from 0-10
today . We started learning them from 11-20. You have or will get a copy with the written numbers on them.

Here's my big helper Luca saying them:



Next, we did a few colors games and then learned the first stanza of
"
Grün, grün, grün sind alle meine Kleider". Here is the text in German and English.

lesson 3

We did our hello, ABC and good bye song from the previous lessons.

To practice the greetings, we went over them in form of a role play. I asked the kids several questions like:"What would you say if you met someone during the day?" Then they got to talk to their friends. We used this document (cut into strips) to guide our little conversation.



Then went over 10 colors by playing several games. Cick to open a color document and watch the video below for pronunciation. Here's also an online activity.
