Overview
German Food & Drink Worksheets is a comprehensive resource containing six worksheets aimed at supporting students in learning German food and drink vocabulary. With a focus on engaging activities, this resource is designed to reinforce vocabulary acquisition and enhance language proficiency.
Worksheet Descriptions
1) Food Vocabulary This worksheet introduces essential German food vocabulary. Students learn to associate food with their German counterparts through matching exercises and fill-in-the-blank activities. Visual aids enhance understanding, making the learning process enjoyable.
2) Drink Vocabulary Focused on expanding food and drink related vocabulary, this worksheet provides students with a list of common drinks in German. Through labelling and matching exercises, students reinforce their knowledge of drink terms, laying the groundwork for more advanced language skills.
3) Food Wordsearch The interactive word search challenges students to translate the German food into English, then find the words within a grid. This activity combines vocabulary reinforcement with an engaging puzzle format, promoting both learning and enjoyment.
4) Drink Crossword Students dive into the world of clothing vocabulary with a crossword puzzle. Clues in German prompt the insertion of corresponding English terms, reinforcing vocabulary retention in an interactive and challenging way.
5) Favourite Meal This worksheet expands students’ understanding of German food and drink by getting them to draw and label their favourite meal in German, providing cultural context to the vocabulary learned.
6) Describing Food & Drink Building on the acquired vocabulary, this worksheet challenges students to describe food and drink in German. By using adjectives and phrases, students practice expressing themselves in the target language while honing their understanding of food and drink vocabulary.

Three slightly different versions of this game are included, with minor changes to a small number of phrases with locations in them. This is to better suit learners in US & Canada (Page 1 of the PDF), Australia and New Zealand (Page 2), and UK and Ireland (Page 3). All phrases used in the game feature on the vocabulary card so if you are not teaching in any of these countries, you will still be able to use the game. The vocabulary card can support younger, less experienced, or less able students.
Brief instructions for students are printed on the board, together with fuller instructions on Page 5 of the PDF file. In turn, students roll a dice and move the appropriate number of spaces. They have to say aloud in German the word, phrase or question they land on, otherwise they return to the space they came from.
You may wish to print the board in A3 for larger groups but it works well in A4 too.
