Wochentage Freizeit Project

Sample:

Dimensions - 4 1/4 inches X 38 1/2 inches (3 half sheets and 1 quarter sheet of copy paper)

Create a strip of frames with sentences and illustrations of what you do each day of the week.

These sentences should demonstrate
          -your understanding of vocabulary we have been learning
          - the sentence rule that the verb must be in the second position in a
            German statement. 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part I - 1st draft
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On looseleaf or printed on your computer, write 7 sentences in German.  Each sentence should be written on a separate line.  Lines must be double-spaced.

Each sentence must start with "Am" then a day of the week.  You should use a different day of the week for each sentence.

After the time expression like "Am Sonntag" you should write the verb/action that shows what you do on that day of the week. 

Immediately after the verb write "ich."  Additional sentence information can be written after "ich." 

THESE 7 SENTENCES ARE DUE NEXT CLASS SESSION.  (Because we had a sub on Monday and not all students received the requirements, theses sentences will be due on Friday, September 28)
I will make editing suggestions and return them to you the next time we meet.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part II - Collecting pictures
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While you are waiting to get your sentences back, collect pictures that correspond to the sentences you wrote.  Pictures can come from the following sources:
                          - your own drawings
                          - clip art from computer or elsewhere
                          - magazines
                          - your own photos (you can use pictures of yourself doing
                             these activities)

Tip:  Whenever you are working on your picture collection, practice saying the activity in
German!

You do not need to bring these to school until you have completed Part III.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part III - Putting together your final project
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Construct a chronological strip of your weekly activities.  "Chronological" means in the order the days of the week occur.  On each frame you should have a sentence and a picture illustrating the meaning of the sentence.

One way to do this is cut a piece of paper in half lengthwise and draw a line down its center to create two frames.  Make a few of these then tape them together side-by-side. This is how I made the SAMPLE above.

Tip:  As you construct each frame, say the sentence for that frame over and over again.  Great way to complete your speaking practice!

To get a good grade on this project you should make sure that...

         - the German in the sentences is correct  (25 points)
        
         - the printing is very neat (you can use word processing) (25 points)

         - the pictures match the sentences  (25 points)

         - the overall appearance is neat and clear  (15 points)

         - the project is turned in on time (10 points)
