Intro German 11 -- Wunderbar and Apples

Today we finished up the chapter 1 questions. We listened to the hit song (not!) by Toni Kater called Wo bist du. Have a look at the video again and you'll figure out the narrative thread http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZKCb9ZVwn4

After break we wrote our chapter 1 test.

Finally I advised students that German nouns have THREE cases: masculine, feminine, and neutral. At that point three kids raised their hands and asked, "Can I see my counsellor?"

Udo and Rudolf were absent and sorrily missed. I hope you're both feeling better soond.

I provided one healthy snack for students. As well, I provided one unhealthy way to remember what the word Wunderbar means.
