Interactive drag-and-drop IW activity for practising key verbs. The activity has 50 verbs embedded, but will select at random 10 verbs to practise each time it is opened. With any luck it will never be the same activity twice!
Powerpoint in which an overview of how to say 'the', 'my', 'your' and 'he / she / it / them' after 'mit' is built up one slide at a time. Students can be invited to deduce the patterns from the clues present on slide 1. Once the table has been built up, each subsequent slide has a single item missing, so you can play Kim's Game.
Interactive drag-and-drop activity for practising the numbers 1 to 21 in French. All 21 numbers are embedded but the activity will select 10 numbers at random to practise each time it is opened. It will also arrange the vocab in random order. With any luck it will never be the same twice.
Simple quiz. Each slide of the powerpoint begins with an outline map of one of the competing countries in Euro 2012. A click of the mouse will reveal the football strip of that country, modelled by a Subbuteo / Zeugo figure. Another click will reveal the flag of that country. A fourth click will reveal the name of the team. How many clicks do your pupils need before they identify the team?
Text based on an article about the German enthusiasm for football. All the gaps in the cloze exercise are verbs. At the end one verb will remain unused.
A synopsis of the film in the Present Tense up to the point where Hardenberg is kidnapped. Students have to read the synopsis and then re-write the text in either the Perfect or the Imperfect Tense, depending on which of the two attached files you use. (I've uploaded this to replace an earlier version which doesn't seem to display the file.)
Chat show interview in which Rudolf the red-nosed reindeer is interviewed about how he gets on with Santa, Mrs Nicholas and the other reindeer. Lots of practice of 'Ich verstehe mich gut mit&' and adjectives for describing personality.
