Willkommen!
Welcome German 11 students! Below, I am in the process of adding your past vocabulary and notes from the Sabine und Michael units and chapters we have already had, plus new ones as they come up in class. Be patient as you wait for updates from Sabine und Michael: Book 2. Feel free to print them out, even if you haven't been absent from class. You will also find many games below to help you practice what we are learning/have learned in class. Occasionally, these will be assigned for homework. When this occurs, you will be required to log in, so that your progress can be recorded and monitored.
