Why this why now
Based on existing knowledge of the present tense, this unit consolidates and extends pupils' prior knowledge of relative clauses in the context of challenging stereotypes. Authentic materials on the 'Miss Germany' competition, on the German term 'Alman' and on the lives of three influential German women challenge preconceptions. Pupils apply their knowledge in extended reading and in completing extended, scaffolded writing with existing and new vocabulary. They apply the historic/narrative present and practise their new knowledge of 'es gibt' (existence) vs 'es ist/sind' (location).
Prior knowledge requirements
- Pupils know the present tense of weak and strong verbs.
- Pupils know 'es gibt'.
- Pupils know relative pronouns der, die, dass in the nominative case.
- Pupils know word order 3 with the verb at the end of the clause or sentence.

Popular culture: Stereotypen
This unit introduces 'es gibt' (existence) vs 'es ist/sind' (location) as pupils understand articles on common stereotypes. They learn and apply the pronouns jemanden, niemanden and revise the pronouns 'it' and 'they' as well as the singular and plural relative pronouns in the nominative case.
