On the 18^th of June we were in Mrs. Hagen’s game station. At first we did a counting and a words game. Then we sat down in a circle and played a game were we often had to change our seat. Then we went to the smartboard and did a game called “wordsshaker”. We had to form different words with 16 letters. It was very funny. (Jonas, Katja)

On Wednesday we had one lesson with Mrs. Priesner. There we repeated some words from this year.
We split in two groups: the Raccoons and the Wombats. The groups had to write the German word and had to translate it in English. For each right word they got one point. When the groups were ready, Mrs. Priesner checked it. The group with the most points won. It was the Wombats group, but the Raccoons group was only one point behind.
This game wasn´t so easy because we also had to know words from the first units. (Evelyn, Johanna)

In the first and the second lesson we cooked with Mrs. Schöllbauer. We cooked English tea, Hot Dogs and muffins. This is very typical food for English speaking countries.  We always worked together.  In these two lessons we had very much fun.  The meals were great. We drank the tea with milk, as in England.

English Week: Monday

In the first lesson of our English week we learned about space and the first man on the moon. We got a worksheet where we had to answer questions and translate some words.

The first man on the moon was Neil Armstrong in July 1969.

The first human in the space was Alan Shepard.

The first satellite was Sputnik 1 in 4^th Oct 1957. (Niklas & Manuel)

Neil Armstrong was born in Wapakoneta, Ohio, on August 5, 1930. After serving in the Korean War and then finishing college, he joined the organization that would become NASA. He joined the astronaut program in 1962 and was command pilot for his first mission, Gemini VIII, in 1966. He was spacecraft commander for Apollo 11, the first manned lunar mission, and became the first man to walk on the moon. He died in Cincinnatiin 2012.(Karina,Bianca)

Lesson with Mrs. Adelhofer (Teacher at HLW)

In the lesson with Mrs. Adelhofer we wrote many interesting texts. Most of them were very crazy. At first we got pictures with animals  and vegetables. Then we created funny and strange stories with the pictures. Later we split in three groups and every group wrote two words on a sheet of paper. Then we swaped the papers and wrote a little story with it. We found it very funny.
