Lesson: May 19, 2020

Objective/Learning Target:

I can talk about 5-7 popular activities, hobbies and actions in German.

Bellwork: Fill in the missing word using the word bank.

1) Er ______ Fußball2) Ihr ______ Hausaufgabe3) Ich ______ Shoppen.

Wordbank: macht | gehe | spielt

Check your work-- How’d you do?

1) Er spielt Fußball2) Ihr macht Hausaufgabe3) Ich gehe Shoppen.

Wordbank: macht | gehe | spielt

In the next few slides, you will be shown some words with pictures. Try to guess what the words could mean based on the picture. The answers will be shown after the pictures.

lesen fernsehen

Ins Kino gehen fischen / angeln

Spazieren gehen Sport machen

Musik hören reisen

schlafen zeichnen

Let’s check those guesses.1) lesen → to read2) fernsehen → to watch TV3) ins Kino gehen → to go to the movies. 4) fischen / angeln → to go fishing5) Spazieren gehen → to go for a walk6) Sport machen* → to exercise 7) Musik hören → to listen to music8) reisen → to travel9) schlafen → to sleep

10) zeichnen → to sketch/draw

*the word “Sport” in German doesn’t mean the same as Sports in English.

Each one of those activities on the previous page have a verb. You can conjugate this verb to talk about someone doing an activity. Before we look at some examples, review a conjugation chart first.

Here’s a sample from class.

Here’s the review video.**Same video from yesterday’s lesson.

Let’s look at some examples from our activity list and write a short sentence. To do this, you must first conjugate the verb. Hint: the verb isn’t capitalized and normally ends in “en”. For these examples, I will use “ich”. This takes an “e” ending.

lesen → Ich lese. → I read.

Musik hören → Ich höre Musik. → I listen to music.

ins Kino gehen→ Ich gehe ins Kino. → I go to the movies.

Practice: Write 3-4 sentences about some activities you do from slide 11. Example. “Sport machen” If you exercise, you could write a sentence like this:

Ich mache Sport. Ich…Ich…Ich…

Challenge! Ask someone at your house which activities on the list that they do and write a sentence about them! Don’t forget to use the er/sie/es form!Example: Herr Thomas hört Musik.
