1.3 Oral Expression, Active Listening

• Kenyan-town places: der Markt, der Supermarkt, das Hotel, das Postamt (Huduma Centre), die Bushaltestelle, die Bank, der Milchladen, das Krankenhaus, die Bibliothek, die Schule
• Direction words: links, rechts, geradeaus, neben, hinter, vor
• Asking where someone is going: Wohin gehst du? Wohin fährst du? Ich gehe auf den Markt. Ich fahre zum Krankenhaus.
• Activities at places: Wo kaufst du Tomaten? Ich kaufe Tomaten im Supermarkt.
• Active listening: catch destination, turn and landmark; repeat the place back; nod and Ja / Mhm

• identify place and direction phrases from a listening text
• listen actively to a short route and mark it on a town map
• interact using Wohin gehst du and a direction word with peers
• value that a missed links or rechts sends a real person to the wrong place
