I like to give visual vocabulary lists to my young beginner learners of German, as they can generally more easily assimilate new language and vocabulary when they are able to***link it in their memory with a visual image***, and it’s particularly important to match a clock time with the corresponding clock face when learning how to tell the time. Children glue the lists into their German vocabulary books, or file them in their German vocabulary folders with other vocabulary lists, which gives them an accessible and useful German vocabulary reference bank for both class and home learning.

For young and / or beginner German learners, I focus initially on a single time set, and this list shows half past the hour on a single page. This is because in my experience students benefit from a very clear outline of new language and vocabulary, avoiding lots of text on a single page - even my older students who are completely new to German prefer this. When I’m sure that students are confident with half past, I then move on to additional time sets. Students often find half past the hour in German quite challenging, so the focused practice is really useful.

There are two backgrounds to choose from - German flag, which I use for German vocabulary display, or plain.

GERMAN TELLING THE TIME I HAVE, WHO HAS? BUNDLE

**GERMAN FOR CHILDREN PRIMARY GERMAN KS2 GERMAN KS3 GERMAN TELLING THE TIME I HAVE, WHO HAS? 3 SETS OF TWO GAMES @ £2.50 EACH IN THE BUNDLE : 6 GAMES AND CHALLENGES, EVERY ANALOGUE CLOCK TIME** ***Files are non-editable in a zipped format. The product is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be amended, copied, rewritten, shared or distributed, in whole or in part, outside your own classroom. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use.*** Lively whole-group multi-skill language learning games, ideal for ***Primary German / KS2 German*** and ***KS3 KS4 German*** students. The repetitive nature of the questions and answers, supported by the visual prompt of the clock faces, makes it perfect for practising, reinforcing & refreshing ***how to tell the time in German***, and for pronunciation practice too. Students often find ***half past in German*** quite challenging, similarly ***fünf vor halb.... and fünf nach halb...*** to denote***25 minutes past and 25 minutes to***, and they definitely benefit from frequent and regular targeted practice. = Set 1: focus on o'clock, half past, quarter to & quarter past the hour = Set 2: focus on 5 & 10 past and 5 & 10 to the hour = Set 3: focus on 20 & 25 past and 20 & 25 to the hour There are 8 clock faces per page, and I cut the cards in sets of 2, so four larger cards per page. This means that students can see two clock faces and times per game card, which really helps to consolidate learning. It’s also a lot less prep than cutting out eight individual cards, though I do actually have a set like this, which we use as a larger-size dominoes game. I always laminate my language learning cards - it’s definitely worth the extra prep time and expense, as they’re more learner-friendly, and remain in excellent condition for years. The aim of the game is to arrange the clocks in the relevant order. Students will generally have several cards each, depending on the size of your class. We usually set the cards on a table, so that students can see the timeline clearly. I frequently use a timer when we play. Playing in teams, using either a single challenge, or with both challenges together, is really popular - students find the competitive element really motivating and are genuinely keen to see which team can finish first, and whether they can beat their own time record. The games also work well as pair or small-group games. ***Each set has two games, each with a different challenge:*** = Challenge 1: with all the the clock times in numerical order, Ich habe... Wer hat...? = Challenge 2: with the all the clock times in random order, which really helps recall and embedding new language, as students often learn time phrases in numerical order, Hast du...? Ja, (Nein) ich habe... ***Have a browse in my store for more German resources, including special offer bundles and freebies.*** **VIELEN DANK UND VIEL SPAß BEIM SPIELEN!**
