Students can work independently of the teacher, challenging themselves and each other in their best English accent to find all the matching words & phrases cards in English and German. The card templates allow students to apply their knowledge a little more practically and creatively, as they craft mini-quiz cards for each other, preferably from memory.

The Reference, Recall & Write book has 8 pages. It includes an alphabetical English-German reference list of all 54 words & phrases. Students find this really useful as a learning support resource, and it comes in very handy for quick vocab quizzes too.

Written Recall Challenge One
This challenge requires students to write the corresponding German word or phrase from an English prompt. The words and phrases are in random, rather than category order - this challenges the memory more than when the vocab is in the order learners first learn it in.

Written Recall Challenge Two
This challenge requires students to write the corresponding English word or phrase from a German prompt. The words and phrases are again in random, rather than category order.

Encourage students to visit the Ideas, Notes and Next Steps page regularly, reflecting not only on the words and phrases they feel confident about, but also how they think their skills in listening, speaking, pronouncing English, reading and writing are developing - and equally importantly, what they can reasonably do to keep improving. We also use their notes to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is really useful, and a very popular activity with students too.
