German 2A/10C: Assignment for 9/28: Kapitel 8
Continue to work on the workbook/lab manual for Kapitel 8. Be sure to self-correct workbook using the answer key. Uncorrected workbooks will not be given credit.
Note: We will review Übungen 13, 14, p. 227 first thing next Monday (9/28). Items assigned for 9/21 but not reviewed will be done next week. Test on Kapitel 8 will be given on 10/5, the second half of the class. Presentations will also be due on that date. 10C students will first take the listening section of the written test, along with the 2A students. Then, they will give their presentations in the adjacent room, 323. The general topics for the test will be posted next week, as well as the presentation topics. There will be a written section that may be prepared at home and handed in with the test. This is strongly encouraged as a more efficient way to do some writing in German. You can consult your textbook, vocabulary, etc. and come up with a very communicative, short essay.
It is presumed that students are putting in 3 hours/week outside of class.

Willkommen! German 2A/10C at CCSF - Fall 2015
Welcome to German 2A/10C! The first session will meet on Monday, September 14 at 6 p.m. at the Downtown Center in Room 623. The room has been changed to one next door so that a DVD player is available. Please endeavor to bring your textbook, Deutsch: Na Klar! (6th ed.) to class, as we will be reviewing previous chapters (5, 6, 7) before launching into Kapitel 8. If you don't have the textbook, do order it right away, along with the lab manual and workbook. Or, you can purchase it at the Downtown Bookstore, or at the Ocean Campus. Even better, order from Amazon or Half-price Books. The textbook and lab manual and workbook are also on reserve at the Ocean Campus library, the Downtown Center library and the Mission Center library. However, you may not take the material out of the library.
You can access the Fall 2015 syllabus by clicking on the link on the right. There is also information about CCSF Insight, which will be used to post to a weekly forum.
Hope to see you all there on Monday, ready to learn about reflexive and relative pronouns, and, yes, adjective endings, as well as many interesting topics such as keeping healthy and fit, making hotel and travel reservations, and the wonderful world of work!
Here is something to keep you inspired until then:
