There are 150 conjugations across 3 differentiated conjugation challenges with a full answer key in each set, 450 conjugations in total. I use these kinds of workbooks in lots of different ways: for practice during the introduction phase, for independent choice in class time, for home learning, for practice and revision during vacation and at return to class, and for cover lessons - they’re really versatile, and ideal for KS3 French & KS4 French students who want to practise and refresh their conjugation skills in French, and work on these tenses a little more. 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. Language learners do often try to conflate what they know about grammar in their first language with the grammar of the language they are learning. With the imperfect tense in French for example, students whose first language is English often use j’étais courir instead of je courais as a translation of I was running. There are specific differences in usage between English and French with this tense, and I do always discuss this with students about this when we’re using the workbooks - I tend to work fairly simultaneously with le passé composé and l’imparfait, because students are better able to understand correct usage when they look at a range of past tense contexts together, for example I have run, I ran, I was running, I used to run. I refer frequently the difference in usage between English and French, and this is important particularly when explaining when and in which contexts to use the imperfect tense in French. The tenses are: present tense (le présent) perfect tense (le passé composé) imperfect tense (l’imparfait) Each set is structured as follows: Two alphabetical verb reference lists: French-English and English-French. Three conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual conjugations: Conjugation Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in French across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding English verb conjugation. Conjugation Challenge 2: gives the infinitive of each verb in French, specifying the target pronoun. Students write the corresponding verb conjugation in French. Conjugation Challenge 3: students write the corresponding French verb conjugation, and its infinitive, from an English prompt. Notes and Next Steps template which students visit regularly - it really does encourage them to think about where they are now, how confident they feel, and what they might need to work on a little more to be absolutely sure of their conjugation skills. We also note down any new verbs we meet, which enables students to build up their own verb vocabulary bank. It’s a great tool to guide and inform whole-group discussion about learning and progress in general, which is a really successful and popular activity. answer key: 6-page booklet which is absolutely essential in my view. Answer keys help students develop more independence in their learning, and provide them with an additional opportunity to engage with language and grammar. They also genuinely enjoy correcting their own - and particularly each others’ - work.

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.
