Interactive PPT for practising numbers and personal description. The first slide acts as a homepage with links to nine hidden images. These images can be used as a stimulus for practising (or getting the pupils to request) language relating to personality, mood and appearance.
This interactive drag-and-drop match-up game contains fifty German synonyms. Each time it opens it will select a different set of 10 synonyms and will shuffle the order. Should never be quite the same twice. Will work on PC or IW. If you use it in a computer suite, every student gets a different game.
Fifteen pictures of cartoon faces are displayed on a master slide. Each time you click, one of the faces will disappear. Students then have to describe the face from memory.
Another 35 authentic items culled from the internet, with questions in English. Designed for a revisophobic year 11 class, but works well as a starter for the more engaged. Various topics covered.
Slightly simplified version of the AS text I uploaded outlining the origins of contemporary image of Santa, and exploring the mathematical implications of his task. The text is followed by (i) questions in English and (ii) an activity in which students must sort the tasks Santa must perform during each house visit into the correct order.
The PPT is a stimulus for a bit of spoken practice of the Accusative. The first slide acts as homepage: students select a letter from the homepage and are hyperlinked to a slide; they then have to say create a sentence saying they would like to have/own/but the animal pictured, using the on-screen help to get the Accusative right.
Activities for students to do after watching the film. There are two reviews of the film, edited together from a number of authentic reviews. These are followed by comprehension questions in German, and two writing tasks.
This a stripped down version of the KS4 text I uploaded, which is called Untergang der Titanic. Hopefully this will be accessible for relative beginners. There is a stimulus text, a vocab list to aid comprehension, questions in English, a 'find the phrase' exercise, a manipulation exercise, some FAQs to comment on and research, and a writing task to wrap it up. I've put the rubrics in English and German. These can be edited one way or the other to suit your group.
A Powerpoint which (i) step by step builds up a grammatical table to demonstrate the adjectival endings needed when desribing places in a town and (ii) presents pairs of real and fictitious characters which form the basis for paired speaking activities.
Powerpoint in which students must (i) play Kim's Game with an image of Springfield and (ii) use the picture of Springfield as a stimulus for oral work.
These are plenary ideas I've previously ulpoaded in English. I&'ve had a go at creating some TL versions. (The ideas themselves have been collected from a number of sources.)
Group activity followed by discussion and essay. Students have to cut out 18 opinion cards and sort them into Pro and Contra groups. They then have to create a diamond nine with each set, before using these as reference materials for a discussion. Finally there is the inevitable essay title.
Powerpoint for practising places in a town. Each slide has a severely cropped image of a place in a town. Students have to say what they think it is. The following slide reveals the full image, and a further click will reveal the relevant French word.
