Lesson 1

(Worksheet) New Vowel  - I (also Y is the same)
New sound – GI – Pick your sound! – North or South, the sound you choose is up to you, however, try to stick to the one you choose. Perhaps an exception to this is if you choose to speak the southern Y sound, you may still wish to pronounce Jehovah’s name and Jesus’ name with the northern Z sound – (this is not by any means a requirement, some consider it to be more respectful)
New sounds IA and IÊU –IU (the same)

Lesson 2

More word associations for the 100 words. Revision of last week’s word associations – everyone remembered them! 15 new word associations. Have you made up any of your own word associations? Use them for your homework this week.

Lesson 3

ULG – My Family
This week we changed the subject of our ULG to My Family. The class went through a few combinations with Anthony, then some made up their own combinations. The class was given a few minutes to write down some combinations, then they got up and said their combinations to each other.

Quick explanation of the importance of knowing where someone comes in the family and the appropriate title to call them. The class was given a handout discussing the most common terms in the family (there are many more but as language students it is unlikely we will need to use them)

Lesson 4

(Worksheet) New Sounds IÊN – IÊNG – YÊN – all the same.

IÊM – YÊM – IM – all the same

INH – IN – the same

IP – IÊP – only dấu sắc and dấu huyền apply to these sounds.

IÊT – YÊT – IÊC all the same and again only dấu sắc and dấu huyền apply

IT – ICH – the same and again only dấu sắc and dấu huyền apply

Lesson 5

The question ‘HOW’. The how question is very difficult to cover. Whilst we covered all the other questions in one lesson a few weeks ago, the ‘how’ question will be covered over two weeks. The general explanations can be found on the hand-out sheets. Familiarise yourself with these explanations, use your homework to get some practice at using the different questions and ‘how’ statements and if you have any questions please raise them next week.

Lesson 6

(Presentation) Each student received a ‘peaceful new world’ tract. The class connected the words in the title of the tract that go together. This week if you feel up to it, use a scripture in your presentation! Anthony chose Ps 37:29 and the class practiced it together, then got up and practiced the presentation with one another.

Homework

As per the homework sheet, don’t forget to use the sheet Anh Sơn handed out to practice the sounds you have learnt so far.
