Carefully guided questions in German to encourage a deeper understanding of ways a director creates a scene through positioning, movement, mise en scene, camera, sound, light etc. I kept the language very accessible.I will give it as a homework task but you might want to do it in class.It is generic, only the scene pictures to explain the terminology of camera shots are from Good Bye Lenin!

Students work in pairs and get one sheet each. They translate the top ten sentences and their partner checks (they have the translation), then their partner translates the bottom ten sentences. You can adapt to how able your students are if you want to translate French to English or English to French. This was for a lower ability year 8 class.

As the kids love love songs, I went through my sister's and my cd collection and chose 18 songs that I liked and that represent a wide variety of musical styles of the last 20 years. I made worksheets for each song for the students to fill in as they listen. Some work better than others, just see what works for you and your classes. Many possibilites of exploring it further. Am just always astonished how many kids go away and download the music afterwards. Enjoy!

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.

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.

This should be enough for one lesson: Matching - kids should be able to work out most of them Odd one out (in the powerpoint I put down my answers obviously others are possible) A bit of** choral repetition ** Song Hier ist Halloween - put text in order Wordsearch - apologies I can’t credit the author as it was sent to me by a colleague words from the wordsearch check - half have been covered durint the first exercise, could be used with dictionaries Background of Halloween and religious origins and practices in Germany, possible discussion Hope you like it! (I have made a similar resource for French)
