The questions have a bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading and spelling. They’re great for helping students familiarize themselves with, and develop competence in, speaking, reading, writing and spelling longer words and more complex sentences in German. Sentence structure and word order may differ from students’ first and/or home language, so it’s important to provide them with opportunities to engage with language that moves beyond single-unit vocabulary as soon as possible. It also gives them chance to apply language in a practical, real-world context, which in turn helps embed both vocab and grammatical concepts into longer-term memory. The questions are all in German, and range in complexity and challenge.
There are 35 fruits addressed in the cards, and it’s unlikely that they are all in your teaching and learning plan. I always include additional vocabulary to add a little challenge, and to encourage students to think a little more creatively and independently. There is an alphabetical German-English and English-German fruits list with masculine and feminine fruits, definite and indefinite article, and singular and plural. - this really helps students familiarize themselves with grammatical concepts without explicit instruction. There are some translation questions too - both from German to English and English to German, which is a great introduction to translation for beginner learners. I explain that there are several possible correct alternatives, as translation is not a word-for-word activity, which is definitely useful for them to know from the very beginning of their learning.
The question card template enables students to apply their knowledge of language and grammatical concepts creatively and practically too - my students really enjoy creating questions for each other, and I encourage them to use the existing questions as a frame of reference as they create their own.
The resource comprises the following non-editable files:
= 36 question cards, 4 per A4 (8.5 x 11) paper
= answer key & recording sheet
= alphabetical fruits list, German-English & English-German

My students absolutely love challenge cards, and find them really useful for helping them get to grips with their ***German***. Task cards are great for independent learning - students can work at their own pace, in pairs or in small groups, and really focus on the ***target language***. The challenge card questions and templates focus on ***multi-skill language learning***, not focusing solely on the target vocabulary - they provide students with opportunities to ***apply prior learning***, and to encounter ***more complex language*** they may not yet have covered formally in class. There are ***answer keys and recording sheets*** for every set, though my students often just use their notebooks for writing their answers. Some sets have a ***question card template*** too - this is a really popular activity with my students, and they love to create questions for each other. Additionally, this enables them to apply their ***developing understanding of German in a very practical and creative way***. Several sets also have accompanying ***vocabulary lists***, which are great as a learning support resource, as well as a year-round reference resource. I have a series of challenge cards sets ready to go for my students - they're a very popular choice for our ***'free-choice' learning time.*** ***Read the full outlines here:*** ***Set 1: German Dates, Days, Months & Seasons Challenge Cards*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-dates-days-months-seasons-challenge-cards-11707477](http://) ***Set 2: German Numbers 0-31 Challenge Cards*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-numbers-0-31-challenge-cards-11817183](http://) ***Set 3: German Christmas Numbers 0-31 Challenge Cards*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-christmas-numbers-0-31-challenge-cards-12015633](http://) ***Set 4: German Numbers 0-100 Challenge Cards*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-numbers-0-100-challenge-cards-11741806](http://) ***Set 5: German Fruits Challenge Cards*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-fruits-challenge-cards-12587759](http://) ***Set 6: German Vegetables Challenge Cards*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-vegetables-challenge-cards-12588063](http://) ***Set 7: German Fruits & Vegetables Challenge Cards*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-fruits-and-vegetables-challenge-cards-12588167](http://) ***Set 8: German Telling the Time Challenge Cards : O'clock & Half Past the Hour*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-telling-time-challenge-cards-1-12458846](http://) ***Set 9: German Telling the Time Challenge Cards : Quarter to & Quarter Past the Hour*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-telling-time-challenge-cards-2-12459953](http://) ***Set 10: German Telling the Time Challenge Cards : Range of Analog Clock Times*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-telling-time-challenge-cards-3-12474452](http://) ***Set 11: German Regular Verbs Present Tense Challenge Cards*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-present-tense-regular-verbs-2-12244522](http://) ***Set 12: German Irregular Verbs Present Tense Challenge Cards*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-present-tense-irregular-verbs-2-12244528](http://) ***Set 13: German Separable Verbs Present Tense Challenge Cards*** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/german-separable-verbs-present-tense-challenge-cards-12685367](http://) ***All files are non-editable in a zipped format and include a range of the following:*** ***differentiated question cards***, students don't have to work through all cards at once - they can select cards randomly for short periods of time during lessons, whatever way suits your learning plan best. ***answer recording sheet*** - I don't actually always use these - I let students use their work notebooks for answers simply use their notebooks for answers. In some set, I’ve included a sheet with a background, and one without. Similarly, in some sets I’ve also included a blank sheet, with no numbers, which is useful when students are working ‘randomly’ through the cards at different times. ***answer key*** - I find having a key essential for students, as it helps them to work and learn independently, and it also offers extra opportunity to engage with language - I tend to laminate sets of answer keys - one answer key for each small group is enough ***question cards template*** for students to apply their knowledge practically, and to create questions for each other - this is a really challenging and popular activity, and I encourage students to include other vocab and verbs they know or learn. ***Have a browse in my store for more German resources, including special offer bundles, resource boxes, and freebies.*** **VIELEN DANK UND VIEL SPAß IN DER DEUTSCHSTUNDE!**
