Good work today on your characters everyone. Next class we should have a chance to finish up the first portion of the Character Project and continue reading more of The Canterbury Tales. For tonight, it would be most important for you to revise and check-in on your essays. Mr. Bernhard went through your work on Google Classroom and left comments for you all. Go in and revise your essays to address those comments. We will print and submit drafts on Friday - so it's important that you finish these revisions before that.
Advanced Russian
Next class you will have a quiz on the One Stem Verb System. You will be expected to know:
- how certain stems operate.
- how to tell stems from each other.
- how truncation and addition function in past and non-past forms.
- how mutations are triggered.
- how to transcribe infinitives, non-past, and past tense forms.
Hopefully our workshop in class today was helpful in addressing these areas. You should work with the verb handout I gave you as well as the textbook in order to discover more about stems.
Additionally, continue to review our work on cases as they are paired with verbs. Complete exercise 7A, numbers 1-10. Read and analyze the sentence, then change the verb and case in order to make a synonymous sentence. We'll review this work on Wednesday, after the quiz.
Russian I
You also have a quiz next week that will focus on your knowledge of the Russian alphabet and handwriting. You should know:
- the sounds that each letter makes.
- the shape of the letter in print and in handwriting.
- the cognate vocabulary from English.
On the quiz you will be asked to listen to Russian and write what you hear, to write words given to you in print, and to explain what cognates mean. Study and be ready!
Also, keep in mind that handwriting packets and name projects must be turned in on Wednesday or they will become zeroes.
