🟩 Start Your Romanian Lessons with Creative Language Tasks
At A2 level, Romanian lessons take a creative turn — guiding learners to build fluency not only by repeating forms, but by using them in meaningful contexts. One of the most engaging activities at this stage is building short stories using common vocabulary, structured verbs, and sentence formation. This lesson develops more than just grammar skills — it sparks imagination and reinforces fluency through practical expression.
🧠 Expanding Grammar: Verb Groups and Present Tense
This storytelling module is built around a recap of the present tense, specifically through the most common Romanian verb groups:
Group -A (ex. a merge, a căuta)
Group -EA (ex. a schimba)
Group -E (ex. a cumpăra)
Group -I/Î (ex. a vorbi)
Learners revisit key verbs such as a merge (to go), a pleca (to leave), a spune (to say), and a putea (to be able), and are encouraged to integrate them flexibly into sentences. The goal is to activate verb usage, not just memorize forms. By constructing meaningful sentences, students gain confidence in verb agreement and syntax.
🌼 Vocabulary That Inspires Narration
The story prompt includes carefully chosen lexical items like soare (sun), flori (flowers), vacanță (vacation), bicicletă (bicycle), and mașină (car), which evoke real-life themes and allow for varied, vivid sentence construction. Nouns are matched with actions, encouraging learners to narrate a small event or description:
Prietenii merg la piață cu bicicleta.
Cumpăr flori pentru mama mea.
În vacanță, schimb orașul și explorez natura.
These examples are then expanded through guided writing exercises, allowing learners to personalize their language while staying within grammatical boundaries.
✍️ Sentence Building with Purpose
Students are encouraged to create short texts starting from a fixed date (e.g., “Este 20 mai 2019…”) and continue with events using verbs in the present tense. This reinforces temporal awareness and logical progression of actions. They practice connectors such as și (and), apoi (then), and pentru că (because), helping ideas flow naturally.
The task also includes:
Visual and verbal brainstorming
Structuring beginning–middle–end segments
Reflecting on vocabulary choice for tone and accuracy
The final product can be oral or written, but either way, it serves as a demonstration of fluency built through repetition, grammar, and creativity.
