A worksheet that helps GCSE/IGCSE pupils to revise adjective endings in all cases. There are 74 questions in total, plus answers at the end. There is a quick reminder of the cases and a page per case, so that they can be handed out separately, to target each case, one at a time. To support learners, each page has an overview table of the case’s article (split into indefinite and then definite article) and matching adjective ending. As such, learners are able to practise adjective endings by focussing in turn on each case, and looking at indefinite articles and definite articles separately, to reduce any confusion.

A trapped door reading that uses the perfect tense (mixture of regular past participles, irregular past participles as well as verbs that take être).

A PPT with worksheet that looks at using ‘kann’ after ‘weil’ e.g. Ich mag mein Vorbild, weil er gut singen kann. A few visual supports on the PowerPoint to recap key vocabulary and encourage pupils to speak about their role-models. This would require pre-teaching of structures such as ‘nicht nur…sondern auch…’ and ‘sowohl…als auch’. I’ve used this with year 8/9 pupils, but it could equally make for a quick recap at GCSE, too.
