GERMAN TELLING THE TIME WORD WALLS
**PRIMARY GERMAN KS3 GERMAN BEGINNER GERMAN TELLING THE TIME O'CLOCK, HALF PAST THE HOUR, QUARTER TO & QUARTER PAST THE HOUR WORD WALLS two sets @ £1.75 each in the bundle**
These word walls create an instant introduction to ***telling the time in German***. The sets feature analogue clock times, ***o’clock and half past the hour, and quarter to & quarter past the hour***.
I like to introduce telling the time as soon as possible in my ***German*** learning programmes, as it lends itself really well to ***promoting speaking*** in the classroom, talking about ***daily routines*** for example.
The word walls are useful not only during the***introductory phase***, but also during the ***practice and consolidation phase***, ensuring that key language is always ***visible and accessible*** to learners. This is particularly important when working with ***half past the hour in German***, which students of all grades tend to find challenging; similarly ***viertel vor und nach***, which sometimes also required a little extra practice. It's important not to move ahead with time phrases too quickly, and I make sure that students are fully confident with a time set before introducing a new one.
We talk a lot about the ***similarities and differences*** in how we tell the time in the different languages too, and I’ve found that very young learners actually develop their confidence in telling the time in their first language. I do vary my word wall displays on a regular basis, as they're great as ***revision tools*** too, and this also prevents learning displays becoming 'invisible' to students.
There are two cards per 8.5 x 11 (A4) page in landscape format, which facilitates a sufficiently large font size that can be seen from various locations in the classroom. There are two headers in Set 1: ***Die Uhrzeit*** and ***Wie spät ist es?***, and an additional header in Set 2: ***Wie viel Uhr ist es?*** Creating new headers, such as ***Die Uhrzeit lesen*** is a really popular activity too.
There are two backgrounds to choose from: ***German flag***, which looks really good for ***German vocabulary / key language display***, or black wave. If you can, laminate the word wall cards, as they hang really well, and last in excellent condition for years, meaning you can recycle the same word wall for a long time.
