Who are EC Resources?
EC Resources are a group of teachers who work together to create easy to use, high quality and editable lessons and units of work. We have created lessons for The Bank of England, The Children’s Commissioner, MACS Charity, The British Legion, Tes, LikeToBe Careers, the Criminal Cases Review Commission (UK Gov) and have also completed PSHE and Citizenship commissions for schools across the UK.
Awaken your students' interest in German at Key Stage 3. Make learning the past tense more fun. In two 45-minute lessons, students read a short version of Rumpelstilzchen on colourful slides. They then explore the past tense (das Präteritum) using a parallel text and grammar activities in German and English, raising their awareness of the two languages' common roots. Also covering vocabulary building and silent letters in English spelling, these lessons aim to motivate students to want to learn more German, while guiding them to write and translate accurately.
This set of mindmaps provides a summary of all twelve units taught at A Level. They supplement ‘AQA A-level’ by Hodder Education. Each mindmap comprises of ‘Schlüsselideen’, ‘Aktuelle Informationen’, ‘Vokabeln und Redewendungen’, ‘Bilder, Fakten, Statistiken und Links’ and some preparation for the speaking exam.
This quiz is designed for KS3 students learning German, although could also be used for year 10.
The questions cover mostly knowledge about German speaking countries and culture, but there are also German language questions. I kept the German language questions simple so that all students could access them.
German Cases and Adjective Endings - Lessons
This 80-slide presentation perfectly accompanies the comprehensive booklet on ‘German Grammar, German Cases’
The presentation focuses on the four key cases: nominative, accusative, dative, and genitive.
The lesson guides students through each grammatical case with clear explanations and practical examples, ensuring a solid understanding of their functions and how they impact sentence structure.
Students will learn how to properly use articles and adjective endings in each case, reinforced by practice activities that allow them to apply their knowledge. Each section of the presentation concludes with answers and explanations.
Can be split up into several lessons or as a revision lesson for more advanced students.
