Why this why now
Pupils' knowledge of present and past tenses is consolidated here as this unit uses two semi-authentic non-fiction texts. These demonstrate the use of high frequency vocabulary in different contexts and give pupils an opportunity to deepen their understanding and give opinions and points of view about German laws. Existing knowledge of prepositions with different cases to represent movement or location is also deepened.
Prior knowledge requirements
- Pupils know the present tense for weak and strong verbs in all persons except 2nd person plural.
- Pupils know how to use the accusative for movement into and the dative for location in a place with prepositions like 'in'.
