1. If your book has not yet arrived, please print pages 2-31 for next time. You can print from the eBook tab iniLrn, but it’s probably easier for you to find the pdf of Chapter 1 ofVorsprungon Canvas and print the first few pages of that (Files > Vorsprung Scans > Vorsprung3e Kapitel1.pdf)

• If you have trouble getting the recording function to work, don’t worry: just do the assignment (i.e. repeat all the words) without recording, and then send an email to your instructor that you completed the “Sounds of German” assignment, but weren’t able to get the recording function to work.

2b.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: Click here for some great online resources on Pronunciation, including some YouTube video summaries by a musician who has mastered multiple languages, and a great interactive site from the University of Iowa.

• COME BACK TO THIS WHENEVER YOU WANT TO WORK ON YOUR PRONUNCIATION! Working on your pronunciation early is a GREAT way to build confidence and get more out of class time

3.BLOG INVITES & TEST POSTS: Please follow the instructions in the Canvas announcement about accepting the invitation to your section’s blog and posting a “test post” in which you simply say what your favorite German word is (remember to choose “Test Post” as the category for your post). This is an ungraded assignment: we just want to make sure you can all post to the blog before the first blog assignment is due.

0. If you are still printing out Kapitel 1 bit by bit, what you will need for next time is pages 2-35.

1.**SUBMIT**Review the annotated Kapitel 1 vocabulary list(“Kapitel1CEM.docx”). Then complete andhand in this worksheet.

• Remember the earlier advice to save Kapitel1CEM.docx on your computer and edit it to make it useful for you: highlight information you especially want to remember; delete information you’re less interested in, so that the parts that are most useful for you stand out.
• Click here for information on how to type Umlaute & ?. On a Mac, there are easy shortcuts; on a PC, the easiest option is probably to activate the US International Keyboard and use the shortcuts this makes available.

2. Go to iLrn, click on the “Assignment Calendar” tab, choose “Kapitel 1” from the “Section” pulldown menu, and do: T:1-19 [Ignore the “Record and Chat” box: just do the rest of the activity!], T:1-34, S:1-1M

• **Uncheck the “View assigned activities only” checkbox in the Assignment Calendar on iLrn in order to see the recommended exercises**

3.OPTIONAL: Schoolhouse Rock! For an entertaining and nostalgic review of the basics of English grammar (which will help you a lot to understand the grammatical concepts in this course, and your future German courses), review some of the classic Schoolhouse Rock episodes. Even if you know all about grammar, you may want to watch the classic “Conjunction Junction.” Newer, but very sweet and particularly helpful for this course, is “The Tale of Mr. Morton,” which explains subjects and predicates. Check out the related videos to find more. [Nothing to do with grammar, but the other must-see Schoolhouse Rock classic is “I’m Just a Bill.”]

• If one of the above links is broken, please email Hartmut! You should be able to find a replacement by searching for the title.

1b.**SUBMIT**When you’re ready,click hereto download a worksheet on the Kapitel 5 grammar, which you should fill out and hand in!

• This list of irregular verbs you should know by Test 5 should help you with the worksheet. If a verb is not listed, assume it’s a weak verb.
  • Here is another version of the same list, less alphabetical, but grouping the verbs by their patterns of stem-changes. Browse through this list for 5 minutes a day every day until you have a feel for the forms of the strong verbs.
• In choosing between haben or sein as the auxiliary verb, remember to use sein for changes of location and changes of state, and haben otherwise. In deciding if something represents a change of state, remember what matters is whether the person performing the action changes state: if I kill Kenny, I don’t change state ==> Ich habe Kenny getötet. If Kenny dies, he changes state: Kenny ist gestorben.
• Suggestion: Keep the video lecture open in a separate window while you work on the worksheet, so you can refer back to it as needed!
