For example, with the ***German present tense***, I encourage students to look for patterns across all the verbs, such as the ***singular pronouns***, including the ***pronoun man*** form being identical, pointing out also that ***man*** is commonly used in ***German***, often also meaning ***we***, unlike the ***pronoun one*** in ***English***. Students do often try to conflate what they know about conjugation, and with those whose first language is ***English***, I frequently see attempts such as ***ich bin machen for I am doing / making*** or similarly ***ich mache arbeiten for I do work***. I refer frequently the difference in usage between ***English and German***, and this is important particularly when explaining when and in which contexts to use the ***simple present and the continuous / progressive present tense***. ***Each set has the following structure:*** ***Two alphabetical verb reference lists***: German-English and English-German. ***Three conjugation challenges***, each with 50 individual conjugations: ***Conjugation Challenge 1***: each verb conjugated in German across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. ***Conjugation Challenge 2***: gives the infinitive of each verb in German, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in German. ***Conjugation Challenge 3***: students write the corresponding German verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. ***Notes and Next Steps*** sheet, which encourages students to think about how their understanding of German conjugation works, what progress they have made, what their targets for improvement might realistically be, and what they might reasonably do in order to meet those targets. Students also note down any new verbs they discover, which enables them to build up a really sound verb vocabulary bank. We also use this to guide our whole-group discussions about conjugation and German grammar, and learning and progress in general - this is a really successful and popular activity. ***answer key***: there are 6 pages in the answer key book - for me, answer keys are an essential and integral part of learning with these kinds of workbooks - they give my students an additional opportunity to engage with language, they certainly help them develop more independence in their learning, and they genuinely enjoy 'correcting' their own, and especially each other's work. ***Have a browse in my store for more German conjugation and grammar activities, and a wide range of other German teaching and learning resources, with dollar, deals, special offer bundles and lots of freebies - I've included a couple here for you to try.*** **VIELEN DANK UND VIEL SPAß BEIM KONJUGIEREN!**
