6.11 Eine Einkaufsliste schreiben

Guten Tag!

Zum Aufwärmen machen wir unseren Tagesminiplausch und eine Wiederholung.

Wiederholung

In the previous lesson, you learned about the diversity of foods in Germany, how to express that you are hungry and/or thirsty, and how to say want you want to eat. Let’s review what you have learned.

Jetzt bist du dran!

For a moment inhabit your German child persona. You feel hungry and thirsty. How would you express that? Now (like a demanding child 🙂) say want you want to eat. Write these sentences in your written journal. Then practice reading them aloud in your audio journal.

Lektionsüberblick

When you are in Germany, you will likely have many meals at home, which means you will need to shop for groceries (Lebensmittel einkaufen). In this lesson, we will prepare for your shopping, by thinking about what you will eat for the next meals and then writing a shopping list. In the end, you will be able to 1) make a meal plan and 2) write a shopping list based on your meal plan.

1) Der Plan (The plan)

It’s time to plan your meals for the week. If you are not a plan-ahead type, that’s okay. It will still be a great opportunity to review the days of the week, meals, and food.

Look at Sofia’s Essenplan below.

What foods do you recognize?

 

 

Montag Dienstag Mittwoch Donnerstag Freitag Samstag Sonntag
Frühstück Joghurt mit Beeren Bagel mit

Frischkäse

 Joghurt mit Beeren Bagel mit

Abend-essen Ofenkartoffel Taco Dienstag Reis mit Hühnerfleisch Reis mit Gemüse Gemüse-Curry Sushi Pizza mit Salami
What is missing from Sofia’s Essenplan? Can you think of anything that needs to be added?
(Consider: additional Mahlzeiten that we have discussed, Getränke, etc.)

 

Jetzt bist du dran!

Draw a table in your journal like the one above with the Wochentage (days of the week) on one axis and the verschiedene Mahlzeiten (different kinds of meals) you generally have in the other. Now fill in your table with what you typically eat and drink for each meal.

2) die Einkaufsliste schreiben (writing your shopping list)

Now let’s build your shopping list based on what you wrote in your Essensplan. You will most likely need food from the following categories: Obst, Gemüse, Fleisch/Fisch, Milchprodukte, anderes, Getränke.

 

Here is what Sofia will need for the first two day of her Essensplan to give you an idea:

Einkaufliste

Obst

Erdbeeren

Heidelbeeren

 

Gemüse

Kartoffeln

 

Fleisch/Fisch

Schinken-Aufschnitt

 

Milchprodukte

Joghurt

Milch

Butter

 

Anderes

Brot

 

Getränke

Kaffee

 

Before you build your list, let’s review the food categories.

Jetzt bist du dran!

In your written journal write down the following categories: Obst, Gemüse, Fleisch/Fisch, Milchprodukte, anderes, Getränke. Then using your Essensplan write down the foods you will need to buy in each category to make at least two days of your Essensplan happen.
Then imagine telling your German roommate the items that you will need to pick up from the store. Record yourself saying each item on the list in your audio journal. If you are unsure of pronunciation remember that the foods above have been pronounced for you in the course presentations throughout this unit (6.1 Obst, 6.2 Gemüse, 6.3 Fleisch/Fisch/Eiweiss, 6.4 Getränke).

 

Zum Schluß

In this lesson, you learned to 1) make a meal plan and 2) write a shopping list based on your meal plan.
Was musst du einkaufen? Return to your Essensplan and write a shopping list for the whole week. Be sure to check your spelling with the language from this Thema. Then record yourself in your audio journal. If you can do it immediately without reading, that’s great! Otherwise, practice saying it a couple times before recording. Or rerecord, if you are not satisfied.
Remember, you can go back to previous lessons to practice pronunciation: 6.1 Obst, 6.2 Gemüse, 6.3 Fleisch/Fisch/Eiweiss, 6.4 Getränke.
