As we wrap up 3rd
quarter in Introduction to German, we had one last fun project to do. We
studied animal vocabulary, and how to talk about our favorite animals.
Then to finish up the unit each student had to create a 'compound animal'
using the German grammar concept of compound nouns; where multiple nouns are
put together and the gender of the last noun is the gender of the whole word.
(Which is why German as 40+ letter words!
Donaudampfschifffahrtsgesellschaftskapitän (Danube steamship company captain))
Everyone created a compound animal from at least three of the different
vocabulary words we learned. Here are just a few of the cool creatures
created by the Intro to German class!
