Why this why now

Within the context of identity issues, this unit consolidates prior learning of the perfect tense with haben and introduces perfect tense irregular past participles. The simple past of haben and sein is consolidated, and the simple past of weak and strong verbs taught. Contemporary context is provided with articles on Syrian refugees in Germany, transgender people and why German is spoken in Namibia. Pupils apply known and new vocabulary and grammar in extended reading, writing, speaking and translation tasks. Sound-symbol correspondences are also consolidated in speaking.

  • Pupils know the English present perfect (I have done) and simple past (I did) translations of the German perfect tense.
