What do teachers have to say about this resource? (9344)
'I immediately liked the fact that the booklet is split into the two major themes in the second year of A level and that there are vocabulary exercises and grammar exercises for the pupils to look at and consolidate their knowledge before they move on to try the exam style questions. I like that section A is solely based on the A level topics and section B consolidate the work done in Year 1 of the A level course so that pupils can be revising the vocabulary and themes for their A level exam. The resource therefore models good spaced practice and interleaving concepts which are excellent practice for linear exams.I think the structure of the resource is excellent too. I really like that mark schemes are given and can be used by the pupils to peer assess. ' C Woodward, German Teacher and Independent Reviewer
