Created for my Foundation level Year 10’s, this powerpoint aims to ensure that students are able to describe how they would celebrate festivals, with the use of verbs that can be recycled across a range of festivals. It recaps on the use of reflexive and separable verbs in the present tense, and how to adapt sentences for your own needs. The content could be spread across 2 lessons. There is a verb matching activity, a recap of how to conjugate regular verbs, explanation of reflexive and separable verbs, and some translation activities. The translation activities can be completed orally or in writing. There is a Kahoot quiz to recap on knowledge gained from Lessons 1 and 2, which also includes some cultural references.

This worksheet gives a list of customs linked to the following festivals: Christmas, New Year, Easter, Valentine’s Day, Polterabend, Karneval, Oktoberfest, Erster Schultag, Halloween. Learning objective - to be able to recognise vocabulary relating to customs and festivals in Germany. Students read and work out which festival each statement is linked to. Answers provided on second page. This could be cut into strips as a sorting activity, or students could test each other by reading the statements out. I used this after students had completed the pre-Reading Powerpoint for homework.
