Swedish learning plan
Section 1:
Learn:
- Alphabet
- Numbers
- Colors
- A few animals
Outcome: Learned everything we set out to do. I received a 64/60 on our first quiz. Although had extreme difficulty with the vowels especially the three Swedish ones that were introduce. Also had difficulty with vowel rhyme we memorized.
Section 2:
Learn:
- Basic greetings
- Pronouns
- Family words
- Description of ourselves
- Basic question to start a conversation
Outcome: Successfully learned everything on our list, received a 36.5/40 on the quiz. I continue to still get the pronouns confused but with practice I am getting better. Greetings were particularly easy for me.
Section 3:
Learn:
- Weather
- Transportation
- Time
Outcome: Learned a majority of things. This was the most difficult chapter for me yet. I prefer not to share the grade I received on this test. I think the difficulty was there were a lot of words, too many for me to handle. The reason being I had all the words from the topic and then tried to add in random words I found and it was too overwhelming.
Section 4:
Learn:
- Food
- Silverware and utensils
- Cultural conation with dinning
Outcome: Successfully learned all the words in the section, with a 74/80 on the quiz. This section was interesting because we did not only focus on the words but also the cultural components of eating at a Swedish dinner.
Final: Cumulative review of everything we went over. Extremely helpful because it made me go back and review the words I had forgotten or started to forget. Good set up. Consisted of 10 words that we had to translate from each section and then a portion in the bottom where we had to write in Swedish about the topics we had learned.
