The cells in each row show the homework that has to be done before the class.

The first ten days of classes are different from the later routine, because it is difficult to separate reading, grammar, and conversation while you are still learning the alphabet and the sound system. There are additional notes in the syllabus after the second week.

No homework to prepare for today.

This is the homework that must be done before coming to class on the second day of the first semester. Read Course Description (link at the top of this syllabus) about each type of homework.

Things are changing! During the first ten days of classes, it was difficult to separate reading, grammar, and conversation, because you were still learning the alphabet and the sound system. Now these components of the course will be more or less separate, and you'll have a different teacher for each kind of work:

• grammar, writing, self-test quizzes
• video
• exercises, sound recordings, memorization
