Donnerstag, Woche 3 – Einkauf und Belohnung

We’ve come to the end of our third week now and it’s sad that we’ve only got one week left of the course.Thursday’s lesson was as good fun as usual though.  We spent most of it learning how to buy things in different scenarios.  We started at the department store, where we got into pairs and wrote a short dialogue between a customer and a shop assistant (verkaufer/verkauferin).  We also listened to some recorded dialogue in order for us to understand intonation (tricky stuff!).After the department store, we practiced enquiring about items for sale in the paper.   In real life this would involve speaking over the phone without the hand signals usually used when you don’t know the language very well!  We all did quite well speaking with our backs to each other as if we were on the telephone..  At the end of the lesson we got to have some more fun pretending we were kids in a Supermarket asking for chocolates, sweets etc from our father!So, it’s the end of the week and time for a long weekend (there’s a public holiday here in Germany on Monday you see).  To celebrate ;) , most of the class went out for a drink at the Hofbrauhaus.  Guter Spaß für alle.Here we all are in our classroom……
