5th week's work

[Laura Major]

This week we did not learn any new greetings yet practiced the old ones we had been going over in the previous weeks. We also reviewed our food vocabulary. In addition, we learn new vocabulary words of animals. We learned the second half of the alphabet and did a little practice in combining letters to form words. We used some of the animal vocabulary words to practice writing Farsi. For practice until next week we are to write out all the animal words in Farsi even if they aren't correct just so that we can practice combining the Farsi letters and grasp an understanding of the pronunciation. I have noticed that Farsi is a little difficult when hearing a word and trying to figure out how to write it out. This is because many of the Farsi letters have a vowel sound included and I am not sure if I am supposed to include a Farsi vowel with the consonant that already has a vowel sound attached. I have practiced writing out most of the animal words in Farsi. We will meet next week to see our progress and then possibly learn colors in Farsi.
