3.1 Guided Writing

• Orthography of formal greetings: Guten Tag, Herr / Frau; Wie geht es Ihnen?; Ich heiße...; Auf Wiedersehen
• Three writing traps: ß in heißen, umlauts ä ö ü, Sie / Ihnen / Ihr with a capital in the middle of the line
• Nouns take a capital: Tag, Herr, Frau, Name; filling gaps in a formal written dialogue
• Writing from a picture of an adult at the gate; a readable word is one the reader does not have to guess

• write common words with correct orthography
• create simple sentences using correct structures
• appreciate the role of writing in interactive communication contexts
