Materials

Käytämme opintojaksolla oppikirjaa Blanco, A. & Kudel, P. Freut mich 1. Finn Lectura.

Teaching methods

Tämä on verkkototeutus ZOOMissa.

Opintojakson suoritusaika on 13.1.-16.5.2025

Käytämme opintojaksolla oppikirjaa Blanco, A. & Kudel, P. Freut mich 1. Finn Lectura.

Opintojakson aikataulun ja muut materiaalit löydät Moodle-kurssiltamme.
Opiskelu tapahtuu ZOOM-tunneilla, mutta on hyvä varata kalenteristasi itsenäiselle opiskelulle aikaa myös muuna ajankohtana. Uuden kielen opiskelu vaatii paljon harjoittelua ja toistoa. ZOOM-webinaareissa käymme läpi kirjan kappaleita, ääntämistä, sanastoa ja kielioppia. Teemme harjoituksia itsenäisesti ja yhdessä (pienessä ryhmässä tai parin kanssa), jolloin opettaja ohjaa, neuvoo ja antaa henkilökohtaista palautetta.
