Almost 100 (93!) photos of real signs, posters, adverts, menus, stickers, flyers, notices, screens, plaques etc, taken by me in and around Hamburg. Each one contains text in German, and the collection can be used in a variety of different ways for all age groups, although perhaps best suited to KS3 and above. Pupils can work individually, in groups or as a whole class to try and work out what the German means, giving them not only exposure to a really wide variety of different text types and styles, but also providing opportunities for them to develop reading skills, decoding skills, work with cognates, and dictionary skills. Also great for cultural awareness and discussion about life in Germany.
