During my 6th and 7th weeks I had a goal of being able to express feelings, speak and write about winter break, using past tense and future tense, make sentences about wishes and needs, ask questions, revise animal and fruits vocabulary as well as get familiar with the most famous historical sites of Turkey. I intended to use online resources, two of which I discovered a few weeks ago and found really useful( http://turkishbasics.com, https://www.turkishclass101.com). I also was hoping to use Quizlet for vocabulary revision and ask questions to my language partner.
In order to develop speaking and listening skills, I and my language partner spoke about winter break using different tenses and asked each other questions about our plans. I also got to learn and conjugate more verbs when we were creating sentences. I was able to express some of my wishes such as I want to do this/that in the future or I want to have coffee etc. and ask questions. As planned, I used Quizlet for revising the animals and fruits and made a few sentences of shopping for fruits. I also learnt to express negative and positive feelings when asked how I am or how I feel. These past 2 weeks I did a lot of speaking and listening practice both online and with my classmate. As part of our class, we also got to read a small children's book and tried to translate what we read. It was quite challenging with a number of unfamiliar words but also very useful in terms of reading and pronunciation. My language partner also spoke about the famous Turkish historical sites and told a few interesting stories about their architecture over a cup of Turkish coffee.
Below are some of the sentence.vocabulary artifacts that I used during the past 2 weeks.
