Extension

● Engage the student in more student-teacher conversation in German aside from regularly planned activities or group the student with other advanced learners who are ready for more challenging dialogue. Provide opportunities for more conversation with fl uent speakers via Zoom or Google Meet. ● Interview or survey other students about a chosen topic in German, then present your fi ndings to the class. ● Students look at a picture of a school in a German-speaking country and ask students to write as many sentences in German as they can to compare it to their own school. ● Provide more complex text in German for students to read. ● Students can build and categorize word lists (synonyms, antonyms, etc.) ● Have students record themselves speaking the language and re fl ect on their progress. ● Students can practice translating from English to German in speech or writing. ● Give the students a story/cartoon topic. Provide them with as much or as little information as you’d like (maybe the main character and a few compulsory events). Then, have students write and illustrate the story and present it verbally to the class.
