**Level 4 Honors German**
====** German 4 Honors covers the overarching themes of relationships, media, heroism, romanticism and expressionism by placing literature and the arts into the historical context. Students will understand how German identity has been shaped by such contexts as they move backwards chronologically. While exploring relationships, media, influences on changing society, and beliefs, they will also be thinking more critically about their own personal identities and their role in society. **==== ====**German 4 Honors is a course that is broken down into units. Grammar focuses on past tense, prepositions, adjective endings, future tense, modals, conjunctions, word order, reflexive, comparative/superlative, time expressions, subjunctive II, conditional, letter writing, transitional words and phrases, idioms, relative clauses, the four cases, da/wo compounds, commands, and the passive voice. **====
