Can be easily used for cover work. I produced this for lower ability groups to encourage forming longer sentences (when, who with, where did you do something).

there was a problem with the second booklet so here is a different version - fingers crossed

For very low ability year 8 a mixture of reading activities and games. Can be set as cover work. Links in with Studio. Change the names to students in your class for extra motivation

We just finished teaching the first two units of the 2026 Gcse German course (Aqa). We use the Kerboodle book. 1 Identity and Relationships with others 2 Healthy Living and Lifestyle I went through the AQA Gcse vocabulary summary from the different subtopics of the first two units and put them into different groups (e.g. verbs, adjectives, time expressions) then in alphabetical order. For the grammar section I chose the main / most important aspects for now (verb endings, stem changing verbs, sein/haben, past participles and imperfect of sein) I then decided on a space saving design that was practical for the kids to glue in / use. Print them double-sided (put the settings on flipping page on the short edge), fold them and voila! Where there is some blank spaces under the vocabulary, I put QR codes to link to online quizzes (we use wordwall). You could do this for yours. Normally I share for free but this took so long. I will do the other units as we go along - I will probably keep it to always to two units so next will be 3&4.

This is based on the wonderful resource from KatherineBibby It should be plenty for one lesson Matching key words to images Odd one out (in the answers, it is just my view, others are possible) Song - gap fill Song - closer listening (having seen the video before might help as well) Wordsearch - without words given (they are from the first worksheet, on the powerpoint you can show them the slide with the words) Battleships - I didn’t put any instructions Hope you enjoy it - the song is such a tune! I did a similar resource for German Happy Halloween

Worksheets pulling from the transcripts of the papers, identifying key vocabulary and key pitfalls created by the exam board. I did one for the foundation paper and one for the higher. At the end is the vocabulary listed just in German, I intend to start with the vocabulary and get them to identify the ones they know vs don’t know - different ways to exploit that. Then you can work together through the different questions on the paper. It can also be set for homework. I also attach the vocabulary that I used to create quizlets for the two papers (I kept them private for now as I don’t want overkeen students from other schools able to see them before mock exams, please be also mindful of this). This took a lot of work so please use it. Do not use it, however, to make money on the back of my work, do not create paid resources from this work.

A powerpoint presentation introducing sights and history of Berlin. Can be used to review places in town. Suitable for 6th Grade-8th Grade and 9th Grade-12th Grade.

Intro and practice of school subjects. Very clear layout, spellings highlighted for pronunciation. Links in with Echo. (Forgot to put in 'history' but who needs that anyway:) )

Role Play cards; card comes up for 5 to 7 seconds then the answer appears. Could be used in class or uploaded in a shared area that is accessible to students so they can practice on their own. A really useful resource for Grades 9 and 10.

Students work in pairs and have ten sentences per sheet (four sheets in this resource) to translate either German to English or English to German - their partner has the correct translation and can guide them. The idea is that they do either the top or bottom ten sentences and the other ten are to check on their partner. (Hope this makes sense)

This was to collate their research into one place - I printed the first two pages once on card back to back and once on A3. I gave each a sheet with an aspect of research and they noted down anything they found relevant, we then passed it around so students added other ideas. Finally, they noted it down on their summary sheet. Worked well and they found it useful. (We are doing Goodbye Lenin so there might be other sub categories relevant for other movies)

Used this both with Year 9 and lower set Year 10. You have to solve the clues in order to solve the whole thing. Change the names to names of kids in your class for added motivation.

I typed up the text and created some questions (easy as target audience was my very low ability year 8). I made the first exercise a bit more hands on by cutting up the paragraphs and titles but I guess it could also just be left as it is. Might be useful as cover work.

Two pages slowly building up to write a paragraph about your holiday plans.

Due to popular demand ;) a third booklet of 8 new songs. This time all by female artists. Again, all you need to do is print the handout and play the youtube song. Enjoy!

This powerpoint introduces different snacks. At the end there is a reading text which used a teacher’s name at our school you might want to adapt the names.

adjectives that come up frequently organized in opposites and illustrated for display

frequent synonyms organised on posters for display.

This is my second lesson on months, the exercises are to slowly reinforce the words and to lead to the kids being able to say the words by themselves. The second part of the presentation introduces the birthday phrase and asks for them to deduct the rules. Can be easily adapted for other languages.

Part of a series of lessons to improve essay writing skills about Goodbye Lenin. 11 idioms are introduced and practised through exercises that are directly linked to the movie. Am a native German speaker so if my English idioms are not quite spot on, just
