I give my students of all grades and learning phases a whole series of reference lists, that build up into a really comprehensive reference bank over the course of their German program. They’re really popular with my students, as they know they can just go to their reference file or folder, and find what they need. They tell me that they feel far more confident about their German when they have a good grasp of core vocab. They’re great for quick vocab quizzes too.
There are two alphabetical lists - one German-English, and one English-German, as I’ve found that beginner German students prefer to have both as a reference resource. I’ve noted where a verb is separable, irregular or conjugated with sein. If my group is small, I provide students with a set of double-sided and laminated reference resources. My students all have a reference file or folder, again from the beginning of their learning, and part of helping them develop independence in, and responsibility for, their learning, is to give them opportunity to keep their learning resources in good order, and easily accessible.
The verbs are all in the infinitive form - it’s an important step in learning is to ensure that students quickly develop a useful vocabulary bank, are able to recognize high-frequency German verbs, and are confident with the meaning of those verbs in English - at that point we can move swiftly on to looking at conjugation and using the verbs in a communicative and practical context. We also use our reference lists to help students audit their developing German verb vocabulary.
The list is a great time-saver for teachers too - if you’re preparing resources focusing on high-frequency German verbs for your students, the list is a good starting point.
There are two backgrounds to choose from - German flag, which I generally use for German grammar or German vocabulary display, and plain.
My students find these freebie German verbs super simple vocabulary worksheets really helpful - download them here:

Please read the Terms of Use.*** With ***structured speaking prompts***, students are able to develop confidence in their ***German speaking***, working independently in pairs or small groups. At the same time, they are building their vocabulary and enhancing their understanding and knowledge of ***German grammar*** too. There are ***50 questions with 50 suggested responses*** in each set, so ***200 cards*** in total. The questions range in ***complexity and content***. As students become more confident and competent, they begin to rely less on the prompt cards, and answer questions in their own way - and even ask them differently too, if their ***talk partner*** is using the answer card as the main prompt. There are several games and activities that my students enjoy, and I've described them for you to try with yours. The questions are aimed at ***advanced beginner German*** to ***intermediate German*** learners, though my ***advanced German*** students enjoy 'going back to the start' too, particularly near exam time. ***This German Paired Speaking Practice Cards freebie will give you a good idea of how the cards work:*** **GERMAN PAIRED SPEAKING PRACTICE CARDS FREEBIE** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-speaking-practice-freebie-12534021](http://) ***Have a browse in my store for a wide range of German resources and freebies.*** **VIELEN DANK UND VIEL SPAß IN DER DEUTSCHSTUNDE!**

GERMAN REFLEXIVE VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE #3
**GCSE GERMAN KS4 GERMAN KS3 GERMAN ALEVEL GERMAN REGULAR VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE 8 workbooks & tenses @ 60p each in the bundle** *featuring 25 high-frequency German reflexive verbs in the present, perfect, imperfect, future, conditional, pluperfect, future perfect and conditional perfect tenses, including a selection which are not essential reflexive, such as **sich kaufen** to practise the dative reflexive pronoun, 150 conjugations in each workbook, 1,200 conjugations in total, answer keys & verb lists* ideal for***KS3 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*; ***KS4 German*** students who have a sound baseline understanding of conjugation and tense in *German*, are working regularly with the notion of past tense in *German*, and distinguishing between verbs that are conjugated with either ***haben or sein in the perfect and pluperfect*** tense to *KS5 German and advanced German* students who have a sound understanding of conjugation and tense in *German*, are working regularly with the notion of a range of tenses and mood in *German*, and have a solid grasp of verbs that are conjugated with either ***haben or sein in the relevant tenses***. It's actually really useful to introduce the ***pluperfect tense in German*** quite closely with the ***perfect tense***, as the patterns are identical, and it allows students to ***compare and contrast*** the tenses, and to practise both fairly simultaneously - in my experience, students do not confuse or mix up the tenses when they're learning and using them together. Similarly, I do tend to introduce the ***perfect tense and imperfect tense*** together, as usage of the tenses is not directly equivalent with *English* for example, particularly in *spoken German*. *The workbooks focus on the mechanics of conjugation, rather than usage*, but I've found that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their *German* conjugation skills are developing well, which is a key step in creating and producing correct *German*, in both ***oral and written form***. 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. I definitely find it useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb conjugation. Students do often try to conflate what they know about conjugation in their first language with the patterns and rules of the language they are learning. For example, with the ***German imperfect tense***, with students whose first language is *English*, I frequently see attempts such as ***ich war machen for I was doing / making*** or similarly ***ich machte arbeiten for I did work***. Students also tend to look for a direct translation of the notion of ***used to...***, before they understand that the ***notion is implicit in the tense itself***. 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 various tenses. 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 ***fixed conjugation patterns*** that students can ***learn, recognise 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'. **The tenses are:** 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)* **Each set 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. We also use this to guide our whole-group discussions about conjugation and German grammar, and learning and progress in general - this is a really successful and popular activity. *answer key*: there are 6 pages in the answer key book - for me, answer keys are an essential and integral part of learning with these kinds of workbooks - they give my students an additional opportunity to engage with language, they certainly help them develop more independence in their learning, and they genuinely enjoy 'correcting' their own, and especially each other's work. ***Currently in my store I have quick conjugation workbooks for a range of 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 special offer bundles and lots of freebies too - I've included a selection here for you to try.*** *This resource consists of non-editable files in a zipped format.

This is a bundle of sixteen 'quick conjugation' workbooks, which provide students with lots of opportunities to practice how to conjugation a range of high-frequency verbs in German with a focus on three tenses: present, perfect and imperfect. One of the workbooks focuses on verbs taking sein in the perfect tense.<br /> <br /> There are 150 conjugations in each workbook, with an individual focus on particular verbs groups. That's 2,400 quick conjugation questions in total. There is a complete answer key for each individual workbook too - my students really like to have the answer keys, as they find it enables them to work more independently, and they benefit from both self and peer assessment. 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. They really do work well in a broad range of contexts.<br /> <br /> The verbs groups are:<br /> <br /> - regular verbs<br /> - irregular and mixed verbs<br /> - regular and irregular separable verbs<br /> - regular and irregular reflexive verbs<br /> - regular and irregular high-frequency verbs<br /> - verbs taking sein in the perfect tense<br /> <br /> The tenses are:<br /> <br /> - present tense (Präsens)<br /> - perfect tense (Perfekt)<br /> - imperfect tense (Präteritum)<br /> <br /> The structure of each quick conjugation workbook is:<br /> <br /> 10-page work book with two alphabetical verb reference lists: German-English and English-German<br /> <br /> Three differentiated conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations:<br /> <br /> Conjugation Challenge One: each verb conjugated in German across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation.<br /> <br /> Conjugation Challenge Two: gives the infinitive of each verb in German, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in German.<br /> <br /> Conjugation challenge Three: students write the corresponding German verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt.<br /> <br /> * 6-page answer key book which students find really useful, and I actually consider essential for this type of workbook - either to self- or peer-assess - it's also a great time saver for teachers, as well as a way of encouraging students to really assume more responsibility for, and independence in, their learning.<br /> <br /> * Notes and Next Steps page - we use this to map progress, and to note ideas for improvement. We also use it as to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really popular and effective activity. It's also a great place to note any additional verbs that students learn, and this helps to build up a really strong verb vocab bank.<br /> <br /> Try this free-to-download sampler to check whether this kind of activity would work well for your students:<br /> https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-conjugation-practice-example-12154187<br /> <br /> Please read the Terms of Use carefully.
