PRIMARY GERMAN KS3 GERMAN NUMBERS GAMES ACTIVITIES German Numbers 0-31 I have, Who has… ? This is a whole-group lively & communicative language learning game, perfect for practising, reinforcing & refreshing how to count from 0 - 31 in German. The game has a***multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading out loud***, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation. It’s perfect for pronunciation practice too.

The aim of the game is to create a German number chain as quickly as possible, starting with the first card null, and ending with the final card, einunddreißig. The game works just as well if the number sequence is placed on the floor, a longish table, or other flat surface. I created the game for my young beginner German learners, but I’ve also played the game with my adult German learners, who really enjoy it too. The design is four cards per page, which allows for a large font - this is really important for beginner language learners who are starting to familiarize themselves with the written word, and how to link sound with spelling. Try to print in colour if you can - it adds to the visual appeal of the game, which is a real motivator for learning - and the monster theme is popular with all ages and grades!

Download, print out, laminate, cut out & shuffle the cards. I’d definitely recommend you laminate the cards, despite the extra prep and expense. They’re far more learner-friendly, and they will last for absolutely years. Distribute the cards, one or two per student, depending on how many students you have in your group. I often play too - students really do enjoy it when I join in, and they seem to work that little harder on their concentration, pronunciation and reading out loud skills. Students walk around the room, talking to each other in their best German accent, sharing the information on their cards, until they have arranged the numbers in the correct order. The game works best played against a timer, regularly over a longer-term series of lessons - can students beat beat their own time record? I always do some high-speed counting warm-up activities, forwards & backwards, to get everyone ready to play!

GERMAN VOCABULARY CARDS & WORKBOOKS BUNDLE #2

**GERMAN VOCABULARY FOR CHILDREN PRIMARY GERMAN VOCABULARY CARDS KS2 GERMAN VOCABULARY KS3 GERMAN VOCABULARY CARDS AND WORKBOOKS 3 SETS OF 198 VOCABULARY CARDS WITH WORKBOOK @ £2.85 EACH IN THE BUNDLE** ***Files are non-editable in a zipped format. The resource is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, amended, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.*** ***297 beginner German words & phrases*** with matching ***English vocabulary cards*** really do help to create a lively language learning environment, ideal for ***advanced beginner German*** learners. There are three sets of ***99 beginner German words and phrases***, with ***matching English cards***, so 198 cards in each set, 594 cards in total. There is an accompanying 18-page ***Reference, Recall & Write workbook*** too. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their ***beginner German vocabulary*** in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. The game cards and accompanying Recall & Write activities have a ***bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading, writing and spelling***. It doesn’t matter if any of the words or phrases don’t feature in your medium or even longer-term learning plan: this is a great way of encouraging your students to engage with new language, and to build their vocabulary at the same time. Giving students ***regular and frequent opportunities*** to work with the cards and the written recall challenges is really effective, not only when we're focusing on these particular vocabulary themes, but also across the school year, and even when they're far more advanced in their learning - all learners benefit from going back to the start. My students use their recall workbooks quite a few times, simply covering previous answers. This means that prep and paper are kept to a minimum. ***The vocabulary groups across the three sets are as follows:*** Begrüßungen : Zahlen 0-60 : Tage der Woche : Monate des Jahres : Jahreszeiten : Wetter : Körper / Körperteile : Farben : meine Familie : Tiere : Obst und Gemüse : Schulfächer : Alltagswörter : Deutsch im Klassenzimmer : Fragen und Antworten The ***Reference, Recall & Write*** books each have 18 pages. They include an alphabetical ***German-English*** reference list of all 99 words & phrases. Students find them really useful as a learning support resource, and they come in very handy for quick vocabulary quizzes too. The ***Recall and Write challenges*** help students familiarise themselves with, and really embed, the range of vocabulary in the set, and also get used to reading, writing and spelling in***German***. ***There are three recall challenges:*** = Written Recall Challenge One: students write the English word or phrase from a German prompt, with all the words and phrases grouped together in the same category = Written Recall Challenge Two: with this challenge, students write the words or phrases in German from an English prompt, and again, they're all group together in the same category = Written Recall Challenge Three: the final challenge ‘switches’ at each question from German to English, and lists words and phrases randomly from each category. This challenges the memory more than when the vocabulary is in the order learners first learn it in, with the additional challenge of moving between the two languages - I've found that this really does encourage my students to think hard about their German vocabulary. There is definitely prep involved - printing and cutting out the cards, and printing / photocopying the workbooks. Laminate the game cards if you can - they are far more learner-friendly, and the additional prep and expense is worth it, as the cards will last in excellent conditional for years. ***Have a browse in my store for more German resources, including special offer bundles and freebies.*** **VIELEN DANK UND VIEL SPAß IM DEUTSCHUNTERRICHT!**

GERMAN FRUITS & VEGETABLES CHALLENGE CARDS

**KS3 GERMAN KS4 GERMAN FRUITS & VEGETABLES CHALLENGE CARDS 108 DIFFERENTIATED CHALLENGE CARDS @ £3.00 EACH IN THE BUNDLE** ***The resource is non-editable in a zipped format. It is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed, in whole or in part, outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use.*** The questions have a ***multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling***. They’re great for helping students familiarize themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling longer words and more complex sentences in ***German***. Sentence structure and word order may differ from students’ first and/or home language, so it’s important to provide them with opportunities to engage with language that moves beyond single-unit vocabulary as soon as possible. It also gives them chance to ***apply language in a practical, real-world context***, which in turn helps embed both vocab and grammatical concepts into longer-term memory. The cards are useful not only when you’re focusing on the target vocab, but also to work on ***German language skills*** in general, such as cases, adjectival endings, ***grammatical structures such as um… zu + infinitive*** and so on. The questions are all in ***German***, and range in complexity and challenge. I usually read through questions before my students work with the cards for the first time, to ensure that everyone understands any new or unknown language and structures. There are ***35 fruits and 37 vegetables*** addressed in the challenge cards, and it’s unlikely that they are all in your teaching and learning plan. I always include additional vocabulary to add a little challenge, and to encourage students to think a little more creatively and independently. There are alphabetical ***German-English and English-German fruits and vegetables lists*** withmasculine and feminine fruits, definite and indefinite article, and singular and plural. This really helps students familiarize themselves with grammatical concepts without explicit instruction. There are several***translation questions*** , both from ***German to English and English to German***, which is a great introduction to translation for beginner learners. I explain that there are several possible correct alternatives, as translation is not a word-for-word activity, which is definitely useful for them to know from the very beginning of their learning. The ***question card template*** enables students to apply theirknowledge of language and grammatical concepts creatively and practically too - my students really enjoy creating questions for each other, and I encourage them to use the existing questions as a frame of reference as they create their own, and to include fruits and vegetables that are not already in the vocabulary lists. ***Each set comprises:*** = 36 question cards*, 4 per A4 (8.5 x 11) paper = answer key & recording sheet = alphabetical fruits & vegetables lists, German-English & English-German ***Have a browse in my store for more German resources, including special offer bundles and freebies.*** **VIELEN DANK UND GUTEN APPETIT!**

GERMAN PHONICS PRONUNCIATION SPELLING BUNDLE #1

**KS3 KS4 GERMAN PRONUNCIATION RHYMING WORDS PHONICS SPELLING PRACTICE - 99 WORDS FOCUSING ON PHONICS, SOUNDS AND RHYMES - CARDS AND WHOLE-GROUP PRONUNCIATION PRACTICE - 198 WORDS FOCUSING ON PHONICS, SOUNDS, SPELLING AND RHYMES - CARDS AND TWO WHOLE-GROUP PRONUNCIATION PRESENTATIONS @ £2.00 each in the bundle** There are 198 cards featuring a range of *sounds in German*, and a *whole-group presentation and practice* resource. We revisit the activities frequently to help students develop *phonic awareness* and a thorough understanding of how *German* spelling and sounds work. I've found that students are quickly able to *recognize sound patterns*, enabling them to *predict the pronunciation* of new words accurately. The whole-group presentations are non-editable for copyright reasons, but move forward via a click as a slide show, with all the rhymes and corresponding sounds grouped together - I often use these at the beginning of the lesson, or a 5-minute pronunciation and speaking break during a lesson, again at very regular intervals. I always encourage students to look carefully at all parts of a particular word, not just the focus sound: for example ***Hochhaus*** - the focus sound is ***au***, but the ***ch*** sound is equally important. The resource works well for my *German* students at all stages of learning, from beginner to advanced. We use the card template for students to add corresponding sounds/rhymes that they know, or learn, over time. I allocate 10-15 minutes frequently to focus on pronunciation and sounds - this really does help students *develop authentic German pronunciation.* Laminate the cards if possible - it's definitely quite a bit of prep, but it's well worth it in the longer-term - they are far more learner-friendly, and will remain in excellent condition for years. I’ve included a set without a background, as that is not as expensive to prep as the colour - I do create colour-coded sets for my students when I can, as it helps them to identify different resources, but they are fine without color too. I've also included a range of my popular *German *freebies that you may not have seen in my store. *The files are non-editable for copyright reasons. They are copyright, all rights reserved. They may not be copied, shared, rewritten or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only.
