What do teachers say about this resource? (7755)
This is an excellent resource. Excellent choice of film as this is such a lovely film and great to get Year 7 students familiarised with German films and children stories famous in German speaking countries. The type of tasks are excellent to prepare students for GCSE tasks on a more basic level. The topics are all exam relevant. It is also a great opportunity to tackle curriculum topics in a more interesting, engaging way, which at the same time covers cultural aspects.
