This resource contains a set of 25 exam practice questions, assembled from edited versions of materials I have uploaded previously. The stimulus materials are mostly followed by questions in English or True/False/Not in text and cover a wide range of topics.
This is a Mark II version with a number of wrinkles* ironed out. Markscheme also added.
* ie mistakes!
I've had a go at editing the various DLdA resources I've uploaded, into a single Filmheft. I've added a vocab list and a load of essay titles for good measure.
40 curious facts in English about Germany. The first PPT is a straight presentation with one per week for the whole of the next academic year ... The second PPT is in essence the same, but asks students to speculate as to whether the statements are true or false, and then to try to recall interesting factoids.
35 authentic images and short texts with questions in English. Created for a revision-averse Year 11 group but will work as a starter for other students.
24 questions on the topics of tourism and the environment. The first slide acts as a homepage. Students choose a letter and then are hyperlinked to a question. Creates an element of unpredictability to the questioning and might be useful for students preparing for their speaking exam.
Another 25 GCSE style questions, edited together mostly from resources I've uploaded elsewhere on the TES. These are numbered 26 -50, so they can be tacked on to the previous set. Most, but not all, texts are followed by questions in English or, true / false / not in text questions. Markscheme also uploaded.
Authentic screenshots and mini-texts on the topic of MEDIA and TECHNOLOGY, with questions in English. Created for a lower ability group but works well as a starter for more able classes.
Powerpoint story in which Bella from the 'Twighlight' series describes a typical day. The text appears slowly, giving students time to read and work out the meanings. As a follow up you could ask the class for ideas, such as likes and dislikes, to augment the text on each slide and make the story their own.
Challenging text based partly on an article about a hotel in Holland that claims to be the worst hotel in the world and partly on real complaints about hotels found on TripAdvisor. (The first paragraph contains an unpleasant, but true, reference to dog faeces, so may not suit all tastes and classes!) The text is followed by, some grammar, comprehension questions in English, a 'find the phrase' exercise, a manipulation exercise, a translation into English, a bit more grammar (weil and obwohl), a speaking task and a writing task.
Text in which Homer Simpson talks about what there is to do in Springfield and compares it to Shelbyville. The text is followed by a True / False exercise, a find-the-phrase exercise, a manipulation exercise and a writing task.
Yet more practice of key vocab for recalcitrant Year 11s. Although designed for lower ability classes, these work well as a starter for more able students too.
Authentic screenshots and mini-texts on the topic of FOOD, with questions in English. Created for a lower ability group but works well as a starter for more able classes.
Gap-fill exercise practising irregular past participles with haben. It is Valentine's Day and Amy wants to go out with Sheldon. Sheldon wants to stay at home and watch Star Trek. Students fill in the missing past participles. (Some gaps can take more than one possibility.) When complete you have a dialogue, which the students can perform. They could also write up the dialogue adding in language of their own such as more persuasive comments from Amy and more disparaging comments from Sheldon.
Vocab quiz on the theme of SCHULE. Adapted from the "Who wants to be a millionaire?" template uploaded by ahardiment. This now works more like a traditional quiz. Students score 5 points for each German word they can give without any prompting and two points for any answer they get from looking at the multichoice options.
Interactive presentation which leads learners though a series of closed questions and guides them to the choice of the correct case and the correct form of the articles within that case. Can be used on the IW for demonstration and / or independently by the pupils to help them write with greater accuracy. Well, you never know ...
