There are homework assignments, quizzes, memorization activities, a long composition, and two exams for this course each semester.

Description: Using the textbook, "German Made Simple" by Arnold Leitner, students will begin learning about the German language by following the story of an American business man and his family who must move to Germany for business purposes. We learn German with them! In addition, students will translate short stories and children's poems to work on reading German, and students will compose German each week as they grow in their knowledge of the German language.
