Nothing like a slow summer morning, watching the morning traffic go by. ☀️

The Schulmuseum in Leipzig has model classrooms representing different eras of German history: Kaiserreich, Nazi era, GDR. Fascinating exhibits and objects showing the history of schooling through the years.

Ooh, pretty stamps!
But note the cost of sending a postcard is now about $1.50 plus whatever the postcard cost.😬

😱 wow! That is a hard classroom size to manage, but those numbers speak to the strength of your German program!!

The Nationalbibliothek in Leipzig is the perfect mix of historic beauty (Lesesaal) and ultra-modern (Abholstation). #Nationalbibliothek

At the Nationalbibliothek in Leipzig, working on a chapter on Ruth Maier for a book on "Queer Exiles". A pretty good view! @ankahajkova.bsky.social

Collecting for German 101 real-world examples of self-introductions, and thinking about examples of playful and image-forward ways of profiling people, such as Süddeutsche Zeitung ""Sagen Sie jetzt nichts". I feel like students would have fun with this format! other ideas? #LangChat #TeachingGerman

@mrfishersays.bsky.social I want to join you all but not sure it will fit in my luggage!😬

Great episode!
Lots of take-aways.
And I also love the idea of having students research "gap year" ideas and make a list of "best" and "worst" after interviewing a classmate😀 #langchat #languageTeaching

Sounds awesome! Will you discuss on the pod? Review it for UP?😀

Yay! You're back! I will save the episode for my day in the airport!

Unexpectedly good politics from Thomas Kinkade's family! www.kinkadefamilyfoundation.org
