My 20% project


Proposal: learning German

Getting to learn some words in German

 

Needs and Opportunities

Some problems that I have on this project is that I really don’t speak any German and that it is actually difficult to learn because it requires a lot of practice and effort.

Audience / Clients / Users

This project will benefit me in speaking other foreign languages and it will benefit my social skills and reading knowledge.

Mentors

I would have some German teachers from any grade to help me on learning basic words in German. I would also ask them any materials that I need for my project.

Show the class German words that I learned

 

Product

In the spring, I will show my class some German words that I learned.

Reality Check

I am not going to need a bunch of materials since this project is just learning a foreign language. Some things that I need are flashcards, and my laptop.

Conclusion

I am excited for this project because I enjoyed learning English since I came to this country, and now I want to learn a new language that I never learned before. I am also excited because I get to know myself much better than before.
