Postkarte!
Pic Collage!
Students will make a picture collage that will be a visual representation of the answers to these questions about their summer vacations:
1. Bist du im Sommer geschwommen? In einem See oder in dem Meer oder im Schwimmbecken?
2. Hast du Freunde oder Familie besucht visited? Wen whom?
3. Bist du ins Restaurant gegangen? Was hast du gegessen / gemacht?
4. Hast du wilde Tiere im Zoo, in den Bergen, oder im Wald gesehen?
5. Was hast du gespielt?
6. Was war deine Lieblingserinnerung? favorite memory Warum***?
WARUM: This will require you to say because. We can use 'denn' to say because and it doesn't change the sentence structure. However, for an A, you must use 'weil'. Weil means because, but it changes the sentence structure.
Ich esse gern Eis denn es schmeckt gut.
Ich esse gern Eis weil es gut schmeckt.
In past tense:
Ich habe die Milch getrunken denn ich habe Durst.
Ich habe die Milch getrunken weil ich Durst habe.
Here is my Summer Picture Collage:

4. Oh ja, ich habe ein wildes Tier in meinem Garten gesehen - meinen Hund, Aspen!
5. Mein Sohn und ich haben im Sandkasten gespielt. Er spielt gern im Sand.
6. Meine Lieblingserinnerung war eine Wanderung auf dem Twin Falls Wanderweg. Wir haben einen tollen Wasserfall gesehen.

Mauer im Kopf
Mauer im Kopf:
am 9. November 1989 ist die Mauer gefallen. Fast 30 Jahre spaeter haben viele Leute in Deutschland
immer noch eine sogenannte "Mauer im Kopf". Sie glauben, obwohl die Mauer nicht mehr zwischen
Ost- und Westdeutschland steht, und die zwei Laender sind wieder eins, trotzdem gibt es grosse
Unterschiede zwischen den Leuten im Osten und im Westen.
Heute lesen wir ueber die Mauer im Kopf. Und dann erfahren wir Kunst von der Berliner Mauer
(East Side Gallery). Danach werden wir Kunst machen!
Anfang: Beantworte die Fragen
1. Was ist der Zweck (purpose) einer Mauer?
2. Wie funkioniert eine Mauer?
3. Welche Mauern siehst du in Bothell oder in der Schule?
4. Was teilen die Mauern in der Welt?
I. Wir lesen den ersten Artikel: Breaking Down the Wall in the Head
1. What are some of the negative perceptions of people from the former East and West?
II. Wir lesen den zweiten Artikel: East Germans are still different
1. Zeichne (draw) ein Beispiel von einem typischen "Ossi" und einem typischen "Wessi".
III. Wir erfahren Kunst von der Berliner Mauer: Eastside Gallery
The Eastside Gallery of the Berlin Wall was preserved because of its art and cultural expression. Find three that speak to you and answer the following questions:
1. Was gefaellt dir an dem Bild? __________ gefaellt mir / ___________ gefallen mir
2. Was bedeutet das Bild? Was meinst du?
IV. Wir zeichnen!! Das Thema: Mauer im Kopf
Now that you have learned about the things separating the former East and West Germany, now think about what is holding you back. Or what is holding back society? You get to draw / paint / create your expression of the wall in your head.
A
|
B
|
C
|
D
|
I
have created a thoughtful and creative expression of the wall in my head or a
"figurative wall" in society.
I
have created something neat, attractive, and interesting regardless of my art
prowess.
I
have written a half page in German describing the meaning behind the art. My
German is not perfect but I have done my best and used vocabulary from the
Berlin Wall / Goodbye Lenin unit
|
I
have delivered a creative expression of the wall in my head or a
"figurative wall" in society.
I
have created something neat, attractive, and interesting even if I'm not the best artist.
I
have written a half page in English and German describing the meaning behind
the art. My German is not perfect but I have done my best.
|
I
have created something that might be described artistic if more thought and
time was put into it.
My
"art" is done on lined paper in pencil that's ripped out from my
comp book...or in other words, not so inspiring.
I
have written a small paragraph in English, or in German but I am not able to
demonstrate my writing skills in German.
|
I
am missing major components of the project.
