Throughout the course of the year students may get
frustrated with studying. Whether you know German or not there are some
ways that you can help your student with their homework or studying for
quizzes... here are my suggestions:
Vocabulary:
*The lists are posted on this website for students (and you!) to retrieve
from home.
*How to help you child study for quizzes...
~Make flashcards with German on one side and English on the
other. Students can study alone or with your assistance.
~Fold vocabulary list so only one language is visible
and quiz the student by saying the English words and ask them to spell the
German words.
~Give your student an oral quiz... say the word in
English and have them write it in German (this is similar to their
quizzes!)
~Students can write out the vocabulary words multiple
times. This really works for a lot of students.
Keeping up with class work:
*Check the calendar for the class to see what we are up to. Especially
when your student is absent, so make-up work can be turned in timely.
*Email or call me and I will attempt to provide as much assistance as
possible.
*Look over mid-quarter reports to see where students are succeeding and
perhaps falling behind.
*Check out some of the extra links I provide the students and work through
the activities together.
