German Language Game: Die Bootsfahrt

Quick German Language Game: "die Bootsfahrt" - the boat trip. 
Note: "das Boot" + connecting "s" + "die Fahrt" = "die Bootsfahrt."
In a compound word, the last word (i.e. Fahrt) gives you the gender of the noun: "die Fahrt, die Bootsfahrt".
In German you say "eine Bootsfahrt machen."

You'll practice the present tense forms: "ich mache, du machst, er macht". And, how to make a question by inverting subject and verb: "Machst du ...?"
