Title: More Ideas for Extra Class Time
Body: Here are some things you could try: - Telephone: Whisper to a student a phrase in the target language and have him/her pass it on until all the students have heard the phrase. See if what you end up with is what you started with. It can be very funny! - Listen to songs in the target language. I sometimes let my students listen to popular songs in the target language. If you can, give them the lyrics so they can associate sounds with words. - Review vocablary flash cards for a current unit of study, or an old one as a refresher. - Current events: Ask students to collect information about the target culture in the news. Share these stories in class. - Show souvenirs, newspaper clippings, post cards, etc. from the target culture. Nolder, M. Re: What to do when you finish early.

Title: German Genitive Usage
Body: Are your students struggling with the genitive? Here are some sources recently suggested on the AATG listserv which provide contextual examples in literature and news reports. "Der Werwolf" by Christian Morgenstern http://lrc-web.modlang.ohiou.edu/lrc/poetry Das Geschenke from Anekdoten und Erzählungen, a graded German reader ---- I did this last week by using an online newspaper. I projected the front page of the Sueddeutsche and had students identify examples. The students were really focused and even my weaker students were able to point out the "des"-es. They have also been noticing when I used it in class this week. So something sunk in! Lechner, H. Re: [AATG-L] Texts with good examples of genitive.

Title: Activities for Valentinstag
Body: Several recent posts to the AATG listserv have suggested ideas for observing Valentine's Day at school. Below is the URL for one teacher's Web site, where you can download Valentine's day resources (Word document) which include love-related conversation prompts and a vocabulary list. Following that is an activity which might help stir up interest in the study of German at your school. http://teacherweb.com/WI/hhs/havas/Photo2.stm ---- Last year, I made a huge pink heart and wrote on it "FALL IN LOVE WITH GERMAN." The students then wrote messages on smaller red and pink hearts -- the type that are on the heart candies this time of year ("I love you," "be mine," etc.). We hung the whole thing in our commons area where everyone could see it. The German 3 students took their little hearts and randomly put them in lockers around the school. It said on the back of the heart, "If you want to find out what this says, see the German teacher!" Some kids did come by asking for a translation. This fall I made a big tree (black trunk with red & gold leaves). Each leaf had the name of a student or teacher at the school with a German name (that took a little time with the student locator binder). On the trunk, there was a sign: "Got German in the family tree? 43 million Americans say "JA!" Are you one of them?" I got lots of positive comments from teachers and kids about this. Hughes, T.
