German Relative Pronouns

GERMAN RELATIVE PRONOUNS is a step-by-step guide that clearly explains, with examples, everything that students aged 17-18 years need to know about German relative pronouns. The guide contains:

• a definition of relative pronouns with a detailed example

• a colour-coded table of the pronouns in German only

• a colour-coded table of the pronouns and their meanings in English

• a ‘How do I know which relative pronoun to use?’ section which includes steps to determine the right case - 4 examples are provided showing relative pronouns in each of the 4 cases.

• examples in the 4 cases using words from the same sentence

• a section on relative clauses containing prepositions

• a section on the use of the relative pronoun was

• 100 exercises which require students to find relative clauses in sentences/questions, to complete 20 sentences (for each case) with the correct pronoun and to complete sentences choosing either was or any of the other pronouns (NOTE: Words from the nominative case exercises are used in the other 3 case exercises to reinforce understanding for students of each relative pronoun.)

• an answer key.

USES:

Use this product to teach German relative pronouns to students, to practise using them, to enable students to recognise and identify them, and to complete exercises independently using the tables and step-by-step examples provided.

It can also be used as a reference guide for revision purposes in preparation for an end-of-semester or end-of-year German exam.

The exercises could also be distributed as homework tasks or used by teachers as assessment material.
