An activity practising language for saying what pets you used to have and what happened to them. There is a grammatical focus on gender and the use of the correct pronoun for 'it'. The first slide acts as a homepage with hyperlinks to other slides. Students then use the linked slides to create grammatically accurate sentences about the deceased and departed pets.
Toolkit to help students produce grammatically accurate sentences about their dead and departed pets. Grammatical focus is on the correct use of pronoun for 'it'.
Slightly simplified version of the AS text I uploaded outlining the origins of contemporary image of Santa, and exploring the mathematical implications of his task. The text is followed by (i) questions in English and (ii) an activity in which students must sort the tasks Santa must perform during each house visit into the correct order.
Activities for students to do after watching the film. There are two reviews of the film, edited together from a number of authentic reviews. These are followed by comprehension questions in German, and two writing tasks.
This a stripped down version of the KS4 text I uploaded, which is called Untergang der Titanic. Hopefully this will be accessible for relative beginners. There is a stimulus text, a vocab list to aid comprehension, questions in English, a 'find the phrase' exercise, a manipulation exercise, some FAQs to comment on and research, and a writing task to wrap it up. I've put the rubrics in English and German. These can be edited one way or the other to suit your group.
(i) A definition of Carsharing followed by a discussion and diamond nine ideas-sort (ii) A variety of statements for and against Carsharing, followed by a comprehension activity, a speaking task, and an AS-style writing task.
(i) A link to the ad (ii) As faithful a transcript of the TV ad as I can get onto a sheet of A4, with some stage directions, plus a sequence of activities. (iii) a story board activity (iv) a PPT with stills from the film, to which students should supply their own text and (v) an exploded version of the dialogue for the students to reconstruct. I've added in a couple of additonial speech bubbles to pack it out a bit.
I showed my KS4 classes the Til Schweiger film KOKOWÄÄH and they loved it. Some of the scenes are very accessible in terms of the language level, so I transcribed one of the scenes and added some activities. You'll need a copy of the film, though.
These are plenary ideas I've previously ulpoaded in English. I&'ve had a go at creating some TL versions. (The ideas themselves have been collected from a number of sources.)
Challenging text based partly on an article about a hotel in Holland that claims to be the worst hotel in the world and partly on real complaints about hotels found on TripAdvisor. (The first paragraph contains an unpleasant, but true, reference to dog faeces, so may not suit all tastes and classes!) The text is followed by, some grammar, comprehension questions in English, a 'find the phrase' exercise, a manipulation exercise, a translation into English, a bit more grammar (weil and obwohl), a speaking task and a writing task.
A sequence of activities to help students describe their phone: (i) an adjective sorting activity (ii) selct adjectives for an advertising campaign (iii) a bit of grammar (iv) some useful phrases.
Two resources for able KS4 students. The first is a vocab match-up activity to introduce students to some key vocab relating to Global Problems. The second is a text relating to Global Problems, followed by a True / False / Not in Text activity, a sentence building activity using a toolkit to help students quantify their levels of concern, plus some questions for students to answer about what should or should not be done in order to improve things. (The text is watered down from a text I originally wrote for Lernpunkt Deutsch.)
Powerpoint for practising places in a town. Each slide has a severely cropped image of a place in a town. Students have to say what they think it is. The following slide reveals the full image, and a further click will reveal the relevant French word.
