Why do conversation day?

Fourth Day

Like I said yesterday, today is not the usual lesson because today is conversation day. In my opinion it is more fun, but you have to pay extra if you want to do this conversation day. I would recommend it because during these conversation hours you get to talk a lot of German and be creative.

Today I met 2 other people from different countries, there were 4 of us in total. We were in a different classroom, always small. I wasn't bored even once because we had to talk and think alot.

To begin with we were given 3 pages from a comic book and with those we had to fill in the bubbles with our version of the story, it was on Julius Caesar. My problem was not the writing part but the creative part. I probably started at the pages for about 15 min while the 2 guys next to me were writing down their ideas without any problem! Anyway I managed to do it even though I left out 2 blank bubbles. While we were writing the teacher went around to everyone to see how we were getting on and if we had a problem or a question we would ask him, in the meanwhile he would be also reading what we were writing and point out the errors and make us correct them ourselves.

After we had finished writing we read out loud our version, they were very different and some were funny.

The last hour we chatted about the typical food one would eat in the countries we come from, it made me very hungry. I especially liked the sound of spanish food.

Here is another reason to do the conversation day, you also learn about other people and their culture, not only, it is very interesting and makes you open your mind and look at things from a different point of view.

For next conversation day I have been given homework which is to do a research on some of the monuments in berlin. I won't tell you now why, it will be revealed later on...
