Description

This unit revisits separable verbs in present and perfect tenses, adjective agreement and use of time, manner, place adverbs. It introduces nouns and adjectives with prepositions, the preposition and adverb 'bis', superlative prenominal adjectives and abstract nouns, for example 'das Gute'.

In this unit, pupils consolidate a wide range of grammar including present and perfect tenses, word order, and adjective agreement as prenominal superlative adjectives are introduced. Opportunities for comprehension and extended spoken production are provided in the context of the German education system. Pupils compare school life this year and last year, read about therapy dogs, peer pressure, and deepen their knowledge of the German school system in normal and unusual settings.
