Homework for the Weekend - B Day - 18 January

Since we were having Internet connectivity issues today in class we did not have sufficient time to complete our Russian Poet Projects - these projects will be assessed at the end of the weekend, be sure that it is turned in to Google Classroom or shared to me.

Russian I

This weekend we should be focused on knowing how to use the four cases that we have been learning thoroughly. As a reminder those cases are NOM, ACC, GEN, PREP. Remember that each of these cases has a specific job and they show themselves based on what they do to the end of a word. Be sure that you finish working through Exercise 1.8 in your textbook. Make the changes for the words for the case needed. Translate. Understand why this case is being activated.

You should also finish learning your verbs. The verbs are the key. Only by understanding what the verb means will we be able to determine the needed case.

Remember that you have the opportunity to correct your quizzes. See me next week outside of class (aka - lunch).

Advanced Russian

We are continuing our work with verbs of motion. Today we spent time in class writing sentences and talking about the very clear distinctions between different types of verbs of motion. Apply these distinctions to the quiz you just took as well as to the exercises that you have.

This weekend you should spend time with your exercises. As you go through, make your choice between A or B for directionality (II) or aspect (III). Identify key words that lead you to your choice. Conjugate for the situation and then translate. This is good work to do as you are preparing to retake your quiz.

Lastly, as always, be aware of vocabulary. Take time to study and learn - especially your prepositions.

Russian III Students - Be aware that you have your trip to UNC on 1 February. Be sure that you are building in time to practice your speaking about your topics.

AP Seminar

Our first submissions are due! Be sure that you have shared work with your team so that they can read, reflect, and give feedback. As you work this weekend, be sure to complete the self-edit as well as the form in Google Classroom. We had some great conferences today in class about what our next steps are going to look like. Keep in mind that QUEST is a recursive practice. We may need to go back to the beginning, but it won't be the exact same beginning as it once was.

Be ready to gather together with your group on Wednesday in order to start making moves toward your TMPOD!
