Description

This unit deepens pupils' knowledge of their verb lexicon. It consolidates their understanding of the English present simple and present continuous to translate the German present tense, with practice in both question and statement forms. Pupils practise the sound-symbol correspondence [j]

This unit continues to develop pupils' understanding and accurate use of weak and strong verbs and the reuse of known vocabulary, this time in the context of friendship. It consolidates the essential knowledge of the verbs 'sein' and 'haben' and the key linguistic differences between the German present tense and the English present simple and present continuous. It requires pupils to consolidate their previously taught knowledge of word order and question formation as they apply it to conversations about building new friendships.
