Assignments  ---  Einführung A

This assignment page will tell you what I want you to turn in as homework. Send me those pages marked with an asterisk *. The Plan contains the answers to all or most of the exercises that follow.  Feel free to check your work before you send it.

1.

Your first assignment in Einfuhrung B will be to study the subject pronouns (p. 45) and the verb kommen (p. 46).  Do exercise 7 (Ubung 7) on page 46.  Check your answers and the English equivalents.  Then send me the complete sentences in German.  I know that the answers are there, but I want you to practice producing these sentences in German.  Writing them out for me is just the first step in mastering them.  You will be expected to translate any or all of the English sentences into German on an exam.
