GCSE GERMAN KS4 GERMAN KS3 GERMAN SEPARABLE VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE 25 high-frequency German separable verbs, 150 conjugation questions, 3 differentiated challenges, answer keys ideal for advanced KS3 German students who are beginning to work with compound sentences and longer texts, and KS4 German students who are revising tense and conjugation. My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I’ve found it’s really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. The focus is on common separable prefixes such as ab, an, aus, ein, um and zu. Prefixes such as entlang and entgegen are not included in this particular collection of verbs…

The resource has the following structure:

Two alphabetical verb reference lists: German-English and English-German.

Three conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations:

Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in German across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation.

Conjugation Challenge 2: gives the infinitive of each verb in German, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in German.

Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding German verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt.

Notes and Next Steps sheet, which encourages students to think about how their understanding of German conjugation works, what progress they have made, what their targets for improvement might realistically be, and what they might reasonably do in order to meet those targets. Students also note down any new verbs they discover, which enables them to build up a really sound verb vocabulary bank.

GERMAN PRESENT TENSE RESOURCE BOX #1

**KS3 GERMAN GCSE GERMAN KS4 GERMAN PRESENT TENSE CONJUGATION PRACTICE FIVE WORKBOOKS @ £1.00 EACH IN THE BUNDLE** ***focusing on a range of German verb groups in the present tense, with 150 conjugation questions (750 conjugations in total), and complete answer keys*** ideal for **KS3 German** students who are consolidating conjugtion skills, and **KS4 German** students who are beginning to work with compound sentences and longer texts, and generally developing their knowledge and understanding of conjugation and tense in ***German***. My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I've found it's really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. **The verbs groups are:** ***regular German verbs irregular & mixed German verbs high-frequency German verbs German reflexive verbs German separable verbs*** ***The workbooks focus on the correct conjugation of verbs, rather than usage***, but I definitely find it useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb conjugation. For example, with ***German verbs***, I encourage students to look for patterns across all the verbs, such as the ***singular pronouns***, including the pronoun ***man*** form being identical, pointing out also that ***man*** is commonly used in ***German***, often also meaning ***we***, unlike the pronoun ***one*** in ***English***. There are certain complexities with ***German reflexive verbs***, as learners whose first language does not have ***equivalent reflexive verbs*** can find identifying the ***correct reflexive pronoun***, and particularly ***dative reflexive pronouns***, and ***positioning them correctly***, quite challenging. Students do often try to conflate what they know about conjugation, and with those whose first language is ***English***, I frequently see attempts such as ***ich bin sich waschen*** for ***I am getting washed*** or similarly ***ich mache / tue sich erinnern*** for ***I do remember***. I refer frequently the difference in usage between ***English and German***, and this is important particularly when explaining when and in which contexts to use the ***simple present and the continuous / progressive present tense***. Though the workbooks focus solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are very ***conjugation patterns*** that students can learn, recognize and apply, ensuring that their ***spoken and written German*** is accurate, and that their understanding of *German* across the skills of ***listening, speaking, reading and writing*** is robust. Students become very familiar and confident the more they work with conjugation, and these quick conjugations certainly help to embed that successfully. I've used these 'quick conjugations' for many years with my ***German*** classes. My students definitely find them to be a great way of practising, reinforcing and revising how to conjugate essential verbs in ***German***. I use them in a range of contexts such as independent work either in class time or at home, holiday refresher work, or individual activities for cover lessons. I tend to give my students regular opportunities to practice the conjugations during the whole schools year, and they find this really useful for mapping their own progress and developing their overall understanding of how ***German*** conjugation 'works'. **Each conjugation workbook has the following structure:** ***Two alphabetical verb reference lists***: German-English and English-German. ***Three conjugation challenges***, each with 50 individual conjugations: **Conjugation Challenge 1**: each verb conjugated in German across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. **Conjugation Challenge 2**: gives the infinitive of each verb in German, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in German. **Conjugation Challenge 3**: students write the corresponding German verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. ***Notes and Next Steps***, which encourages students to think about how their understanding of German conjugation works, reflect on what progress they have made, what their targets for improvement might realistically be, and what they might reasonably do in order to meet those targets. They also use this page to note any new verbs they learn, which helps them build up a comprehensive verb vocabulary. It's also a useful tool to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really popular activity with my students. The ***answer key*** is a 6-page book which is absolutely essential in my view. Answer keys help students develop more independence in their learning, and provide them with an additional opportunity to engage with language and grammar. They also genuinely enjoy correcting their own - and particularly each others' - work! ***Try this quick conjugation workbook sampler to see if it's the kind of learning activity that will work well for your students - it's free to download here:*** **GERMAN QUICK CONJUGATION SAMPLER** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-conjugation-practice-sampler-12154187](http://) ***Currently in my store I have quick conjugation workbooks for the above verb groups featuring the following tenses:*** *present tense (Präsens) perfect tense (Perfekt) imperfect tense (Präteritum) future tense (Futur I) conditional tense (Konjuktiv II, Futur I) pluperfect tense (Plusquamperfekt) future perfect tense (Konjuktiv I, Futur II) conditional perfect tense (Konjuktiv II, Plusquamperfekt)* ***Have a browse in my store for more German grammar activities, and a wide range of other German teaching and learning resources, with lots of freebies too - I've added a selection here.*** *The product is non-editable in a zipped format.

I find answer keys really essential, as they provide students with additional opportunity to engage with language.<br /> <br /> I've been using the workbooks for a long time, and found they work best when I give my students regular and frequent chances to revisit the workbooks, including noting their thoughts on the Notes and Next Steps template. That really does help them to focus on their progress. We also use the template to guide and inform whole-group discussions about German conjugation in particular and German grammar in general. Even my advanced students get the chance to go 'back to the beginning' and work quickly through the conjugations, just to be sure that they have really grasped the concept. I use the workbooks as classwork, as homework, as 'free choice' resources, holiday refresher and revision work, and also as focused activities for sub lessons.
