Why this why now
A core thread of asking and answering questions with greater detail is explored here as pupils extend their knowledge of adjective endings with definite and indefinite articles in the nominative and accusative, and the dative with 'aus' and 'mit'. Word order knowledge is deepened as pupils learn how to vary the word order for emphasis. Pupils apply their knowledge in describing attributes in more detail, as they describe a new house and new neighbours. Cultural detail is provided through the common feature of multi-generation houses in Germany.
Prior knowledge requirements
- Pupils know word order 2, with options for time, manner or place at the start of the sentence.
- Pupils know adjective endings with indefinite articles in nominative and accusative cases.
