Prerequisite: K100 with a minimum grade of C-. *This course meets with graduate course K502. This is a second semester language course, which will continue to introduce you to the fundamentals of the Norwegian language and will provide you with the tools to function in an everyday context. You will be able to discuss daily topics such as food, weather, housing, clothing, health, likes/dislikes, and travel. Authentic cultural materials will be used whenever possible. Class meetings are an invaluable immersion experience; therefore, your attendance and participation are essential to being successful. Homework will deal with grammar exercises, but essay writing will gradually be required. Weekly quizzes, two tests and two oral exams will count toward the final grade. Books: Required books: A.
