Short texts in which school pupils express the likelihood of their going into the sixth form versus looking for training or employment, followed by comprehension questions in English, a 'Find the phrase' exercise and a text manipulation exercise. (The original four texts are from Lernpunkt Deutsch 3, but the two texts featuring authentic German handwriting have proved to be too hard to read for many of my students so I've typed them up!)

Ppt featuring severely cropped authentic images of places in Berlin (station, supermarket etc). Pupils have to try to guess what the place is and say'Hier gibt es ...'.

This could be elicited from students before clicking in each answer.
