I didn't do too good on last week's goals because of all the other commitments and interruptions I found myself embroiled in:
Write my absentee letter in German for the two week vacation in September
5 Exercises from Sentence Builder
Reread Die Wäschklammer with vocabulary list for comprehension
Read and understand a Learning German blog post
Practice A2 vocabulary
I did actually get LWT to work and have loaded and worked through the first two podcasts in Slow German. I'll need to practicce the vocabulary but now that I'm up and running that should work. I also watced an episode of Hawaii 5 Oh in German. I was able to get context from the scenes and of course picked up a few words, phrases, and the gist of some conversations, but beyond that it was pretty useless and fast. I'm also watching Deutschland von oben, love the series and since seeing the English version of Die Alpen von oben I have wanted to see these in German. So this should be a good goal to add. I have a ridiculous amount of homework this week so I'm not sure just how much I can get done but let's see how I do with the following:
