Title: “Go Fish” with Principal Parts in Latin
Body: A Latinteach user suggests the following activity: If there was ever a good time for "go fish," principal parts is it. TONS of principal parts turn up in chapters 20-22 of 'ecce Romani' and so I have each student make a set of flash cards, one principal part per card and play "go fish". A student must as a classmate, "habesne [principal part]." It is up to the discretion of the classmate being asked if it was pronounced correctly. If the student has the principal part and it was pronounced correctly, they must hand over the card. If the person being asked does not have the card, or if it is incorrectly pronounced, the student replies, "minime! i piscatum." Chochola, J. [Latinteach] principal parts "go fish". The Teaching of the Latin Language listserv (latinteach@nxport.com, 5 Jun 2007).

Title: Idea for Practicing Relative Clauses in German
Body: A German college teacher gives the following idea for practicing relative clauses: I do a "Tabu" type of game. The students are given cards with items in English written on them that they have to purchase in a store in a German-speaking country, where the salesclerk (oddly) speaks no English at all. The items on the shopping list are of course items for which they don't know the German: safety pin, clothes hanger, tweezer; if you want extra laughs you can include diarrhea medicine and such. Of course you have to stress that they use phrases like "Es ist ein Ding, mit [dem] man...." I usually write on the board "Es ist ein Ding/Instrument/ eine Maschine", etc. This works well if you can separate the class into two teams. Babilon, S. Re: [AATG-L] relative clause exercise?. American Association of Teachers of German listserv (AATG@LISTSERV.IUPUI.EDU, 4 Jun 2007).
