Fun lesson that learners enjoy. The worksheet is the body of the lesson and requires beginners or even intermediate groups needing accessible work at home to have fun reading and writing creatively about their pet and show understanding of a basic text. They should have access to dictionaries if new to vocabulary for pets. Lesson can be done without prior learning of pets vocabulary since learners need to look up their own pets only so it could double up as a great start or taster to the pets topics in German following on from German introductions and greetings.
Introductions and greetings in German are needed and could be also introduced this way or simply recapped.
Versatile resource that is easy to expand on and create further homework projects that springboard forward into the topic.
The lesson also provides another valuable opportunity and the time to discuss digital safety in a natural follow on from the activity and at a level that most learners should be able to relate to by thinking through in terms of pets.
