Text about Spider-Man's abilities and how he acquired them plus brief synopsis of the first Spider-Man movie. Text followed by comprehension questions in German.
A fairly dry worksheet containing three written exercises covering Grammar points covered in Year 8 at Gordano School. Used for revision in advance of a summative writing test.
A bit of old-fashioned grammar. The sheet presents the Present Tense paradigms of lieben, hassen and mögen, gives guidance about 'don't like' and 'don't like any' and then provides twenty sentences in English to translate into German. All the sentences relate to the topic of TV.
Three texts of increasing sophistication, ghost-written by characters from a reality show. Students have to evaluate the texts and give a NC level to each one. They then have to re-write one of the texts to improve the NC level. There are then two more written tasks to complete
A set of comprehension questions relating to Episode 1 of the Channel 4 German Series 'Extra'. Once answered the questions provide the language to complete a writing task.
Practise of key language relating to asking directions, followed by a playscript, in which Britney Spears asks the characters from Scooby Doo for directions. The location of the station remains a mystery.
A series of short texts in which characters from the series 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' reveal where they have lived apart from Sunnydale. Texts are followed by a richtig / falsch exercisr, a 'Welche Person ...? ' exercise and finally comprehension questions in German.
'ich wohnte in Liverpool' is a KS4 level text about Markus Babbel's time with Liverpool FC and his opinions of the city. Text is followed by (i) richtig / falsch questions and (ii) open questions in German.
'Interview mit Markus Babbel' requires pupils to anser questions as though they were Markus Babbel. They can answer some on the basis of the previous text but will need to use a bit of imagination to answer them all.
Text in which Britney Spears recounts a convoluted dream, featuring multiple locations and unlikely actions by various celebrities. Lots of practice of In der Stadt language and verbs in the Perfect Tense.Text is followed by comprehension questions in German.
Open-ended writing task in which students must create new characters for a soap opera. Originally I linked this to the theme of Meine Stadt, getting pupils to say where they lived and worked and including practice of prepositions eg Er arbeitet im Kiosk vor dem Bahnof. Er ist verliebt in die Freundin von seinem besten Freund etc etc, but you could practise a whole range of structures.
2 texts in which teenagers talk about their free time. The first text is followed by richtig / falsch / nicht im Text questions, and the second text is followed by open questions in German.
Text in which several characters from Dr WHO explain what they do in their free time. Text is followed by a reminder of Present Tense and comprehension questions in German.
