Deutsch ist leicht

Today we’ll have the last quiz of the chapter. We’ll also review for the exam, which is Wednesday.

Next Monday we will meet to have lunch at the Bavarian Bakery.

Quia is due tonight. See you in class.

We’ve scheduled 2 events for the semester:

On Monday, April 5th we will meet at the Bavarian Bakery at 12 for lunch. It’s a fabulous German restaurant in Ft. Worth. (3000 SE Loop 820, Fort Worth).

This is a link to the restaurant website; feel free to peruse the menu- we’d like you to order auf Deutsch, so be prepared! The lunch prices are also very reasonable.

The next event is a trip to the Holocaust Museum in Dallas on Friday, April 16th at 2 pm. We will do a tour of the museum and then at 3 o’clock there will be a Holocaust survivor who will speak to us.

If any of you want to car pool or caravan to these events, let me know- I’ll be leaving from UTA and am happy to give a ride.

Hope everyone had a great Spring Break.

Here’s what is going on during the next week or so: Wednesday we’ll have a quiz over Sonstige Substantive und Verben and next week, along with Quia, we will have another quiz on Monday (Adjektive und Adverbien / Sonstige Wörter und Ausdrücke). Wednesday is the Chapter 5 exam and Friday your first draft of the Semester City Project is due.

Lots going on, let me know if you’re having trouble keeping up.
