What do teachers say about this resource? (8912)
This is an excellent resource – the reading and writing parts of the exams are very challenging for pupils and not always easy to prepare for so this resource provides pupils and teachers with a logically structured guide – going from word level comprehensive to a grammar focus and then onto production in the form of speaking and translation activities. This resource provides pupils with a wide range of level and spec appropriate articles and tasks to increase vocab, practice translation and other key skills for A level German. This resource would be great as extra practice, flipped homework, intervention sessions, cover lessons and even in place of some book articles.

I think it will be a resource that will be sought after and should be in departments up and down the country! The level of the language is perfect and the topics are interesting and relevant for young people. The focus on culture will bring life in German-speaking countries into any British classroom, allowing a unique insight for those who have not yet had the opportunity to visit the country. The resource allows pupils to develop literacy and higher order thinking skills in German and really look at the nitty-gritty aspects of the language, through the translation exercises in particular. It would supplement any curricular programme well.
A very helpful resource which is motivational as well as informative. (...) It encourages students to find out more about German culture and life in German-speaking countries. It will teach various facets of German culture with interesting texts.
