EUROPE COUNTRIES AND CAPITALS QUIZZES IN GERMAN INTERMEDIATE GERMAN EUROPE COUNTRIES AND CAPITAL CITIES GERMAN CROSS-CURRICULAR LEARNING EUROPE TWO MULTIPLE-CHOICE QUIZZES IDEAL FOR THE EUROPEAN DAY OF LANGUAGES TOO
Files are non-editable in a zipped format. This product is copyright, all rights reserved. It is illegal to copy, rewrite, amend, share or distribute outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. School / departmental licenses are available. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.
Ideal for cross-curricular learning in German class: students can develop their knowledge of the geography of Europe in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. At the same time, students are developing their German language skills: speaking, listening and reading in particular, as well as broadening their German vocabulary. Play both as a whole-group team quiz, and in pairs or small groups on a regular basis - students are particularly keen to see if they can beat their own points record, and are really motivated by their developing knowledge.
The set contains all European countries and capital cities, including some island communities such as the Faroe Islands and Guernsey. Each question has 4 answers to choose from. The correct answer is given in capital letters. The quiz cards are numbered, but questions can be asked in random order too: simply place all the cards in a bowl, box or tin, and work your way through.
There are two quiz challenges:
= Challenge 1 gives the country as a prompt, with four possible capital cities to choose from.
= Challenge 2 gives the capital city as a prompt, with four possible countries to choose from. This challenge uses the definite article in the responses to help consolidate students’ knowledge of the gender of individual countries and the use of the dative following the preposition von.
The card numbers for Challenge 1 are in the top right-hand corner; Challenge 2 in the top left-hand corner so that the cards can be organised and sorted easily. Laminate the cards if possible: they’re more learner-friendly, and remain in excellent condition for years.
Before playing, it’s useful to show students a map of Europe, so that they can visualize the location of each country and capital city, not only as an individual location with Europe, but also as a location in relation to other European countries and capital cities. This definitely helps students understand and memorise the countries and capital cities.

Files are non-editable in a zipped format. This product is copyright, all rights reserved. It is illegal to copy, rewrite, amend, share or distribute it, in whole or in part, outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-use license only. School / departmental licenses are available. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.
The set features a range of high-frequency French Christmas vocabulary, useful either as an introduction to, or consolidation of, the target language. Students can also develop, embed, reinforce and refresh their general French language skills in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher. The questions are differentiated, and are aimed at advanced beginner French students. They address not only French numbers 0-31, French mathematical language and French Christmas vocabulary, but also a broad range of grammar points, such as definite and indefinite articles, question formats and gender agreement in French.
All the questions are in French, with the Christmas images providing students with visual learning support. The Christmas vocabulary and images help to develop students’ awareness of a range of Christmas traditions and figures in French-speaking countries, such as galette des Rois and Père Fouettard, which is translated as Father Fouettard, rather than ‘Whipping Father’, and are also really useful for stimulating discussion about French Christmas practices and customs. This is a successful alternative to more standard presentations and worksheets. Students also enjoy talking about other Christmas traditions they know or follow.
The resource comprises the following non-editable files:
= 48 differentiated question cards - laminate if possible, as they will remain in excellent condition for years
= answer key - this can also be laminated, and shared among groups of students for class work
= answer recording sheet - simply print as many as your particular groups need. Students can use their class workbooks for working out and noting responses, though recording sheets are definitely useful for more formal assessment purposes.

School / departmental licenses are available. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.
Ideal multi-skill language learning activity for developing listening, speaking, reading, writing and spelling skills for German language students. There are 100 grids in total, in both colour & BW. The colour can prove expensive to prep - laminating these for repeated use with wipe-free pens keeps longer-term prep time and expense to a minimum. Younger students enjoy BW grids, taking some additional time to colour them in themselves, which works well as vocabulary consolidation. The German Christmas images and words stimulate discussion about Christmas in Germany and other German-speaking countries.
The games are designed for players to cross off all the words or pictures on their grids in order to win the game. You can give students a random selection of pages, with students selecting the order of grids they play from. You can also cut out the grids, and place them in a small bowl or similar object on tables. Students then select grids randomly from the bowl. For additional challenge, students can play any number of grids in a single game.
This set comprises the following non-editable files:
= 40 picture-only bingo 12-square grids, 4 per page (10 pages)
= 40 words & pictures bingo 12-square grids, 4 per page (10 pages). Colour & BW
= 10 picture-only 30-square grids (A4 portrait format) Colour & B&W
= 10 words & pictures 30-square grids (A4 portrait format) Colour & B&W
= calling card, featuring 32 German Christmas words. Print or photocopy double-sided to minimise prep. There are 8 check columns per page, so that you can really get the most from each card - call the words randomly, ticking them off as you go, so that you can check the winning grids. You can vary the use of the definite and indefinite article, singular or plural. Students should also be the bingo caller, rather than always the teacher.
= calling card, featuring the English translation of the German Christmas words. This is great for additional challenge - students hear the English word, and translate it quickly, looking for it in writing in German in the grid

It is illegal to copy, rewrite, amend, share or distribute it, in whole or in part, outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-use license only. School / departmental licenses are available. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.
The set features 25 high-frequency German reflexive verbs in the present tense. Some questions focus specifically on dative reflexive pronouns, as students may find these more challenging at first. There are 6 worksheets, with three differentiated conjugation challenges, each with 50 individual questions, in two design formats:
= Workbook Format: 10-page workbook, with cover page, verbs lists, six worksheets and Notes, Next Steps and New Verbs page, where students note any points they’d like to work more on, map their progress and list any new regular German verbs they learn, which helps them develop a really useful German verb bank.
= Worksheet Format: worksheets can be printed out individually, or as a pack without the cover page, verbs lists and progress template, useful for quick revision, refresher, starters / finishers, and also generally saves on prep costs
= answer key
The worksheets also address a broad range of vocabulary and grammar points, such as direct / indirect object pronouns, negative sentences and various question formats. Some sentences include modal verbs and subordinating conjunctions, to ensure that students can practise locating the reflexive pronoun and verb or infinitive accurately. Students may not have engaged with all the language used at this stage, and this makes the activity equally about engaging with new language, as well as practising and reinforcing the current language focus.
There are three differentiated conjugation challenges:
= Challenge 1: each verb conjugated in sentence format across a range of pronouns, with students writing the corresponding translation. Translating accurately is an important skill for language learners to engage with and master, and this kind of focused practice is really useful for them.
= Challenge 2: straightforward conjugation drill: each question gives a German infinitive and a target pronoun. Students write the corresponding German verb conjugation.
= Challenge 3: mirrors Challenge 1, with an increased challenge. Students write the German translation from an English sentence, to ensure that they are able to produce as well as recognize both the correct conjugation and an accurate translation.

French-speaking countries, capital cities and flags game cards provide great cross-curricular learning opportunities for any appropriate age group, at any time of the school year. Students can develop their language skills, as well as their knowledge of both the French-speaking and wider world, in a cooperative, communicative and interactive way, independently of the teacher.
The set features 41 countries / territories where French is an official language, with each picture card showing the continent and national flag, and the corresponding text card detailing continent, country and capital city. There is a set of detachable continent, country and capital city labels. Labelling is a really successful and popular learning activity.
There may be a number of countries and capital cities that students do not know, or are not aware of, so the games help them fully develop their general awareness, knowledge and understanding of Les pays francophones. I’ve used the definite article, as I’ve found that this helps embed the concept of gender in French, and that proper nouns, such as countries, are subject to gender agreement rules too.
There is a country, capital city and flag reference list of all countries and capital cities, including the continent on which each is located. Students find it useful to read this through before playing I generally allow them only 60 seconds on a timer to really focus their reading and increase the sense of competition if we are playing competitive team games. I’ve described a range of popular games and activities in the product pack.
The list can also be used as a year-round reference resource, which students can file in their workbooks or learning files. Laminate the cards and reference sheets if you can - it’s really worth the extra prep time and expense, as they’re far more learner-friendly, and remain in excellent condition for years. Play regularly for maximum learning potential.

BEGINNER GERMAN INTERMEDIATE GERMAN KS3 GERMAN DATES DAYS MONTHS SEASONS KS4 GERMAN DATES DAYS MONTHS SEASONS GCSE GERMAN DATES DAYS MONTHS SEASONS 10 DIFFERENTIATED GERMAN WORD SEARCHES WITH ANSWER KEYS
Files are non-editable in a zipped format. This product is copyright, all rights reserved. It is illegal to copy, rewrite, amend, share or distribute it, in whole or in part, outside your own classroom in any way. The license is a single-user license only. School / departmental licenses are available. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.
This set is aimed at advanced beginner and intermediate German students. It focuses not only on the core vocabulary of days, months and seasons, but also on key dates in the German calendar, including all national official holidays - Bundeseinheitliche Feiertage - and a range of other Feiertage and important dates, such as Faschingsdienstag and der Fall der Berliner Mauer. Many of these dates, both national and / or regional across German-speaking countries, are religious in origin, such as Karfreitag and Allerheiligen. This is a popular alternative to more traditional teacher-led presentations about German traditions, festivals and national holidays, and provides a really useful springboard and stimulus for class discussion and more comprehensive research.
The target vocabulary includes definite and indefinite articles, as well as ordinal numbers erst-, letzt-, zweit- and so on, increasing the challenge in a number of grids. The search questions are equally important: students have to apply their broader knowledge of German and Germany in order to know which word to search for in the grid, for example Alle vier Jahre gibt es ? or ? wird am 3. Oktober gefeiert?
The set features 10 differentiated word searches, with varying levels of challenge. Grids 1 and 2 feature German prompts and German responses in the grid. Students also complete a list of corresponding translations in English for additional consolidation. Grids 3,4, and 5 feature English prompts, which students translate into German, and then look for in the grid. Grids 6-10 feature a series of questions, which students have to answer before they can complete the search grid. For example ***Ein Jahr hat vier ?***, ? hat im Schaltjahr neunundzwanzig Tage and ***Der Tag der Deutschen Einheit ist am ?***. Grid 10 also features a range of dates such as 6. Januar to give students plenty of opportunity to practice the use of the full stop after the number in German dates.
There is an accompanying German national holidays and key dates list which students can also use as a longer-term reference resource.
