Students generally find the competitive element really motivating, whether playing solo or in teams. The sets focus on 25 fruits and 25 vegetables respectively, featuring the definite article, both singular and plural, to help students practise the nouns in both contexts. Using both also gives more scope to the games, effectively providing 50, rather than 25 possibilities for students to work with, and it's particularly useful for students to see the variety of plural forms in ***German***. Students don’t generally learn so many fruits / vegetables at a particular time, but it’s a good idea to include a broad range of related vocabulary to enable students to engage with language implicitly, and to develop their vocabulary recall skills. ***The individual sets are here:*** **GERMAN FRUITS BINGO** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-fruits-bingo-13323559](https://) **GERMAN VEGETABLES BINGO** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-vegetables-bingo-13323562](https://) The games work well in various learning contexts, for example learn and practice during the introductory phase, refresh and revise throughout the school year and activities for sub / cover lessons. Each set has 60 grids : 40 with fruits / vegetables images only, perfect for developing listening and recall skills, and 20 with fruits / vegetables images and nouns. These grids work particularly well for both listening and reading skills. Students have to pay really close attention to these grids, as some feature the same fruits / vegetables both as an image and a noun. There are four 5 x 3 grids per A4 (8.5 x 11) page. Students can play with any number of grids from either one or both sets in a single game, which is a straightforward way of increasing challenge. Grids can be distributed as whole pages, reducing prep time, or cut out individually. If you have erasable pens, laminating the pages of grids for repeated use reduces overall prep time and expense, particularly if you print in color. The grids are designed for all squares to be crossed in order to win the game, and there may be more than one winner per game. For maximum challenge, play both fruits and vegetables simultaneously. There is both a ***German*** and an ***English*** calling card in each set for maximum differentiation. For a focus on listening skills, use the ***German*** version; for more targeted practice of fruits / vegetables in ***German***, use the ***English*** list when playing with the mixed image and noun grids. Students will hear a fruit / vegetable in ***English***, and have to locate the corresponding ***German*** word in the grid. These games will take a little longer, because in order to cross off the images, you will also call out a series of fruits / vegetables in ***German***. Tick the column as you call out each fruit / vegetable, so that you can keep track of what you have called out, and also check back when a game is won. The winner / winners have to repeat the fruits / vegetables in their grid in order to confirm the win. It’s a good idea to nominate students on a rota basis to be the bingo caller, rather than always taking that role yourself. There is a reference list with images in each set. It’s useful to give students several minutes to look over this before playing, so that they can familiarise themselves with the featured range of fruits / vegetables and the corresponding images. ***The Lively Learning Classroom offers a wide range of German resources, including special offer bundles and freebies.*** **VIELEN DANK UND GUTEN APPETIT!**
