Please make sure to register for the exam on PSSO before the deadline and to sign up for a time slot for your second Teilleistung (i.e. the oral exam concerning the logs with your partner) in class.
Your task for this week is to learn ALL of the vocabulary for Unit 22 (Quality and the arts) and complete any exercises you didn't last semester. Much of this will be review, but please pay attention to sections that you did not address in your own study last semester and return to exercises you had difficulty with.
Please review Units 1, 3, and 5 in the textbook and your answers to the exercises you completed last semester. Bring in any questions that you have with tense to our session on May 24th.
Here you will find a wealth of word formation exercises. I recommend doing as many as you can before the exam: https://www.english-grammar.at/online_exercises/word-formation/word-formation-index.htm
We will discuss strategies for word formation and key word transformation exercises in our May 24th session.
