There are two sets of 99 beginner German words and phrases, with matching English cards, so 198 cards in each set, 396 cards in total. There is an accompanying 18-page Reference, Recall & Write workbook too. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their beginner German vocabulary in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. The game cards and accompanying Recall & Write activities have a bonus multi-skill focus on listening, speaking, pronunciation, reading, writing and spelling. It doesn’t matter if any of the words or phrases don’t feature in your medium or even longer-term learning plan: this is a great way of encouraging your students to engage with new language, and to build their vocabulary at the same time. Giving students regular and frequent opportunities to work with the cards and the written recall challenges is really effective, not only when we’re focusing on these particular vocabulary themes, but also across the school year, and even when they’re far more advanced in their learning - all learners benefit from going back to the start. My students use their recall workbooks quite a few times, simply covering previous answers. This means that prep and paper are kept to a minimum. The vocabulary groups across the two sets are as follows: Begrüßungen die Zahlen 0-40 die Tage der Woche die Monate des Jahres die vier Jahreszeiten das Wetter der Körper / die Körperteile die Farben meine Familie Alltagswörter Deutsch im Klassenzimmer Fragen und Antworten The Reference, Recall & Write books each have 18 pages. They include an alphabetical German-English reference list of all 99 words & phrases. Students find them really useful as a learning support resource, and they come in very handy for quick vocabulary quizzes too. The Recall and Write challenges help students familiarise themselves with, and really embed, the range of vocabulary in the set, and also get used to reading, writing and spelling in***German***. There are three recall challenges: Written Recall Challenge One students write the English word or phrase from a German prompt, with all the words and phrases grouped together in the same category Written Recall Challenge Two with this challenge, students write the words or phrases in German from an English prompt, and again, they’re all group together in the same category Written Recall Challenge Three the final challenge ‘switches’ at each question from German to English, and lists words and phrases randomly from each category. This challenges the memory more than when the vocabulary is in the order learners first learn it in, with the additional challenge of moving between the two languages - I’ve found that this really does encourage my students to think hard about their German vocabulary. There is definitely prep involved - printing and cutting out the cards, and printing / photocopying the workbooks. Laminate the game cards if you can - they are far more learner-friendly, and the additional prep and expense is worth it, as the cards will last in excellent conditional for years.
