Kompetenzerweiterung I (Monday/Wednesday Group), Homework for November 18th

 For Wednesday's session, please prepare the following: 

- read the grammar descriptions for future time on pp. 38-39 of Destination (first two pages of Unit 5). Bring any questions with you to class. 

- complete exercises A-E on pp. 40-41 of Unit 5. Check your answers using the key and bring any questions with you to class. 

-  learn the topic vocabulary and the word formation words for Unit 4 and complete exercises A-E (pp. 30-31) and M + N (p 35; in task N, feel free to replace the noun in #9 with something else...you'll encounter narrow-minded sample sentences in textbooks, unfortunately). Self-check your answers and bring any questions with you to class.

- bring a list of 10 false friends between English and either Spanish or French to Wednesday's session (whichever you study at the TH) 

- make an additional list of 5-10 of your favorite false friends between English and German or another language you speak (other than Spanish or French).


The notes from Monday's session have been posted as "Notes from class on November 16th" on the Inhalt page. 

I encourage you to have a look at some of the resources I posted under the "future tenses" folder on the Inhalt page to visualize the difference between "will" future and "going to" future. More on this on Wednesday. 

For auditory learners, the BBC Learning English channel has video explanations of all of the grammar topics we've addressed and will address this semester, so it might be worth checking out for review: https://www.youtube.com/user/bbclearningenglish
