As a German teacher, I want my students to be learning the language in a way that's new and different from how they are learning in their home classrooms. A better way to summarize student learning in my classroom is by saying they are acquiring the target language. My goal is to guide students in their language acquisition through fun. The document camera allows me to show books or other materials on a large scale to all students (not just the ones sitting up front). Flexible seating allows my active students to get a break from the traditional desk environment which is distracting to some. Materials such as the tweezers or dry erase boards can be used to play games that are engaging and fun, but also allows them to participate in German with a novice proficiency level. My students are incredibly motivated to learn German, they understand how special it is to be given the gift to be global citizens. I want them to achieve that in the most engaging way possible, and a part of that depends on the environment in which they learn.
