What do teachers say about this resource? (6472)

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.
