Many verbs in German are paired with specific prepositions. Quite often, these prepositions have nothing to do with location or direction. Examples in English would be: “to think about”, “to wait for”, “to be afraid of”, etc. Knowing which preposition to use is so natural that the native English speaker doesn’t have to think about it at all. It’s automatic. But when the English learner repeatedly uses incorrect verb-preposition combinations, it can cause that person sound overly “foreign”.
The same problem can occur in German if the German learner isn’t aware of which specific preposition(s) to use for a given verb. This handout provides a list of over 60 common German verb-preposition combinations that a student is likely to encounter in normal conversation, writing and media reporting. (Grammatical case is indicated for 2-way prepositions.)
This was originally intended to go with expo 1 and is a simple introduction to French prepositions using pictures of a cat as a memory aid. I have found year 7 classes responded well to this and liked the cat theme! On the slide with a grid of 6 numbered pictures I have played pass the parcel. I put lots of scraps of paper with the numbers 1-6 in a box and pass it round the room to French accordian music. When the music stops the pupil holding the box pulls out a nuber and has to say the relevant French sentence. Works a treat every time!

In this lesson students learn words for areas of the school (school grounds) and how to construct basic sentences with prepositions. Some prior knowledge of school subjects is needed for the do-now starter activity.
