This a stripped down version of the KS4 text I uploaded, which is called Untergang der Titanic. Hopefully this will be accessible for relative beginners. There is a stimulus text, a vocab list to aid comprehension, questions in English, a 'find the phrase' exercise, a manipulation exercise, some FAQs to comment on and research, and a writing task to wrap it up. I've put the rubrics in English and German. These can be edited one way or the other to suit your group.
