A list of 20 holiday homework tasks, e.g. a supermarket challenge, a German song challenge, a bake-off challenge, a board game challenge, an advert challenge… something suitable for everyone. Each challenge has simple instructions with it.

All students start with “Starting Sheet” and have the homework one week to memorise the full sheet. The sheet has lots of key verbs and three tense sentences for each verb. In the next lesson, all students get Round 1. They have to fill in the gaps. If the student reaches the pass mark, they are on to Round 2 the following week. If not, they complete Round 1 again until they pass. (Homework can be to revise from Starting Sheet every week.) It gets more difficult each week until Round 10, in which they’re filling in the full German and English sentences in different tenses.
