ALEVEL GERMAN ADVANCED GERMAN REFLEXIVE VERBS CONJUGATION PRACTICE 3 workbooks & tenses @ £1.20 each in the bundle featuring 25 high-frequency German reflexive verbs in the pluperfect, future perfect & conditional perfect tenses, including a selection not essentially reflexive, such as sich kaufen to practise the dative reflexive pronoun, 150 conjugations in each workbook, 450 conjugations in total, answer keys & verb lists ideal for advanced German students who have a sound understanding of conjugation and tense in German, are working regularly with the notion of a range of tenses and mood in German, have a solid grasp of verbs that are conjugated with either haben or sein in the relevant tenses, and are comfortable with complex texts, including authentic resources. Grammar books are not consistent with grammatical terminology, so in this context, the conditional perfect is I would have done for example. I’ve used hätte & past participle as ich würde gemacht haben is no longer commonly used in the way that ich hätte gemacht is for example. The conjugation is structured in the same way as the Konjunktiv II Plusquamperfekt, which is often called the pluperfect subjunctive in English grammatical terminology, though of course, the usage is different. It’s actually really useful to introduce the conditional perfect tense in German along with the future perfect tense, as the patterns are identical, other than the auxiliary tense, and it allows students to compare and contrast the tenses using a range of texts including authentic resources, and to practice both fairly simultaneously - in my experience, students do not confuse or mix up the tenses when they’re learning and using them together. In general, I move forward quite rapidly with conjugation, as this also gives us the opportunity to work with a wide range of authentic texts in our learning programme, and students’ ability to create and use new language isn’t restricted by not having an understanding and knowledge of the required tense. The tenses are: pluperfect tense (Plusquamperfekt) future perfect tense (Konjuktiv I, Futur II) conditional perfect tense (Konjuktiv II, Plusquamperfekt) The workbooks focus on the mechanics of conjugation, rather than usage, but I’ve found that when my students are able to provide the correct conjugation very quickly, and out of a specific context, they feel really confident that their German conjugation skills are developing well, which is a key step in creating and producing correct German, in both oral and written form. My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I’ve found it’s really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. I definitely find it useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb conjugation. Students do often try to conflate what they know about conjugation in their first language with the patterns and rules of the language they are learning. For example, with the German conditional perfect tense, students need to have a firm grasp of haben in the subjunctive mood (Konjuktiv II, ich hätte, du hättest etc, a direct translation of I would have, you would have….) and sein in the subjunctive (ich wäre, du wärest etc, which is not adirect translation for English-speaking German learners, and can take a little extra practice), and of how to form and position past participles accurately. Though the workbooks focus solely on the correct conjugation of verbs with ‘quick conjugations’, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are fixed conjugation patterns that students can learn, recognise and apply, ensuring that their spoken and written German is accurate, and that their understanding of German across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing is robust. Students become very familiar and confident the more they work with conjugation, and these quick conjugations certainly help to embed that successfully. I’ve used these ‘quick conjugations’ for many years with my German classes. My students definitely find them to be a great way of practicing, reinforcing and revising how to conjugate essential verbs in German. I use them in a range of contexts such as independent work either in class time or at home, holiday refresher work, or individual activities for cover lessons. I tend to give my students regular opportunities to practise the conjugations during the whole schools year, and they find this really useful for mapping their own progress and developing their overall understanding of how German conjugation ‘works’. Each set has the following structure: Two alphabetical verb reference lists: German-English and English-German. Three conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations: Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in German across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. Conjugation Challenge 2: gives the infinitive of each verb in German, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in German. Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding German verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. Notes and Next Steps sheet, which encourages students to think about how their understanding of German conjugation works, what progress they have made, what their targets for improvement might realistically be, and what they might reasonably do in order to meet those targets. Students also note down any new verbs they discover, which enables them to build up a really sound verb vocabulary bank. We also use this to guide our whole-group discussions about conjugation and German grammar, and learning and progress in general - this is a really successful and popular activity. answer key: there are 6 pages in the answer key book - for me, answer keys are an essential and integral part of learning with these kinds of workbooks - they give my students an additional opportunity to engage with language, they certainly help them develop more independence in their learning, and they genuinely enjoy ‘correcting’ their own, and especially each other’s work. Currently in my store I have quick conjugation workbooks for a range of verb groups featuring the following tenses: present tense (Präsens) perfect tense (Perfekt) imperfect tense* (Präteritum)* future tense (Futur I) conditional tense (Konjuktiv II, Futur I) pluperfect tense (Plusquamperfekt) future perfect tense (Konjuktiv I, Futur II) conditional perfect tense (Konjuktiv II, Plusquamperfekt) Have a browse in my store for more German grammar activities, and a wide range of other German teaching and learning resources, with special offer bunles and lots of freebies too - I’ve included a selection here for you to try.

The tenses are: present (presente) perfect (perfecto compuesto) preterite (pretérito) imperfect (pretérito imperfecto) future (futuro) conditional (condicional) My students really like this kind of grammar activity, as they like to work and learn independently, which is a successful way of varying teaching and learning methodologies - I’ve found it’s really important to avoid predominantly teacher-led learning in the languages classroom. I move onto conjugation quite quickly in my language learning programmes, so that students can apply language practically and creatively, which is essential for progressing in language learning, as well as consolidating language and grammatical concepts. The workbooks focus on formation and conjugation, rather than usage, though it’s definitely useful to remind students of a number of things when focusing on or revising tense and verb formation and conjugation. For example, language learners to often try to conflate what they know about conjugation in their first language, and the language they are learning, and with students with English as a first language I frequently see students learning the conditional tense getting a little confused by the absence of a direct equivalent of would, before they really grasp that the notion of conditional is indicated in the verb stem + relevant pronoun ending, which they may have already met when working with the future tense, but need more practice with. In turn, they often mix up conditional tense and future tense endings, so it can be really useful to introduce both tenses fairly simultaneously. In this way, students can compare and contrast verb endings, across a broader range of texts, including authentic resources, which really helps them consolidate learning. In my experience, students are able to move beyond any confusion between the two tenses really quickly. Though the workbook focuses solely on the correct conjugation of verbs, and does not look at word order in the context of full sentences, there are conjugation patterns and specific rules for usage that students can learn, recognize and apply, and begin to be able to predict accurately, which in turn ensures that their spoken and written Spanish is accurate, and that their understanding of Spanish across the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing is robust. Students become very familiar and confident the more they work with conjugation, and these quick conjugations certainly help to embed that successfully. The workbooks are really versatile, and I use them in a range of learning contexts, such as practice during the introductory phase, free-choice activity in class time, home learning or cover lessons. My students like to have several opportunities to go through the workbooks several times a semester across a whole school year - they find it really useful for mapping their progress and developing overall understanding and competence. Each set is structured as follows: Two alphabetical verb reference lists: Spanish-English and English-Spanish, useful for longer-term reference too Three differentiated conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations: Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in Spanish across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation.

Notes and Next Steps template to encourage my students to reflect on their progress, and think about what they can reasonably and realistically do to meet learning targets and move on - we revisit the conjugations, and the Notes and Next Steps, regularly - sometimes students haven’t quite embedded learning before it’s time to move on, so revisiting for 10-minute ‘chunks’ is really popular with them. Students not any new verbs they learn, which in time builds into a really comprehensive verb vocabulary bank. We also use the Notes and Next Steps to inform, guide and focus whole-group discussion on learning and progress in general, which is a really popular activity. answer key six pages in book format. Answer keys are essential for this kind of learning activity, as they do provide a really essential additional opportunity for students to engage with language, and my students prefer to work and learn independently, assessing their own progress, either individually, in pairs or in small groups.

KS3 ITALIAN KS4 ITALIAN GCSE ITALIAN A LEVEL ITALIAN GRAMMAR ITALIAN VERBS CARDS Files are non-editable in a zipped format. The resource is copyright, all rights reserved. It may not be copied, rewritten, amended, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully. 198 high-frequency Italian verbs with 198 matching English verbs cards, 2 sets each with 99 Italian verbs and matching English verbs cards @ £1.75 in the bundle really do help to create a lively language learning environment, ideal for intermediate Italian students, and those preparing to move into and work confidently at advanced intermediate Italian level. The games and activities are a really successful alternative to more traditional ‘vocabulary drilling’ exercises. Students can develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their core Italian verbs 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 verbs 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. This prepares them really well for creative activities in Italian - they will have a rich vocabulary to choose from. Students can work independently of the teacher, challenging themselves and each other in their best Italian accent to find all the matching verbs cards in Italian and English. The card templates allow students to apply their Italian knowledge practically and creatively, as they put together mini-quiz cards for each other, preferably from memory. This is an essential aspect of successful language learning. The Reference, Recall & Write book has 18 pages. It includes an alphabetical Italian-English reference list of all 99 verbs. Students find this really useful as a learning support resource, and it comes in very handy for quick vocabulary quizzes too. The Recall and Write challenges help students familiarise themselves with, and really embed, the range of verbs in the set, and also get used to reading, writing and spelling in Italian. It’s also a great way of developing literacy skills in Italian. The challenges can be done several times, as students simply cover previous responses, so they definitely get a lot of use from a single workbook. There are three differentiated recall challenges: Written Recall Challenge One students write the English verbs from an Italian prompt, with all the verbs in alphabetical order, Italian-English. Written Recall Challenge Two again, students write the verbs in English from an Italian prompt, but the Italian verbs are now in random, rather than alphabetical order. Language learners often learn or are familiar with new vocabulary in a particular order, so it increases the recall challenge by changing that order. Written Recall Challenge Three the final challenge requires students to write the corresponding Italian verb from an English prompt. The English verbs are also in random order. This challenge really helps with vocabulary recall, which is quite challenging when vocabulary does not appear in the context of a sentence. It’s really useful for spelling in Italian too. I encourage students to visit the Ideas, Notes and Next Steps page regularly, reflecting not only on the verbs they feel confident about, but also how they think their skills in listening, speaking, pronouncing Italian, reading and writing are developing - and equally importantly, what they can reasonably do to keep improving. I always have activities where creative application of language is required too, so that they can use the verbs in real-world contexts, which is essential for progressing in language learning. We also use their notes to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which again is really useful, and a very popular activity with students too. The resource works best when used frequently and regularly - students should store their work carefully in a learning folder or file that they can refer to at any point to support their learning and revision. Students also note down any new, related vocabulary, which builds into a really comprehensive ***high-frequency Italian verb vocabulary ban***k in a very short space of time. Laminate the game cards if you can - they are far more learner-friendly, and the additional prep and expense is definitely worth it, as the cards will last in excellent conditional for years. Print & photocopy an appropriate number of quiz card templates and Reference, Recall & Write books. The books are best copied double-sided, and double-stapled on the left-hand side, rather than a single staple in the top left-hand corner for example. This format is again far more reader and writer-friendly, and can be used more effectively as a learning and reference resource. Have a browse in my store for more Italian independent learning activities, and a wide range of other Italian teaching and learning materials, with Italian resource boxes, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies too - I’ve added a couple here for you to try.
