German Festivals and Traditions 7-11

German Festivals and Traditions is an invaluable and time-saving book that provides intercultural ideas for every month of the year. For each festival and tradition, you will find:

• Background information
• Key vocabulary
• Detailed lists of possible teaching activities
• Photocopiable sheets
• Ideas range from making cards and writing poems, to playing games and cooking traditional recipes.

Examples of festivals and traditions include Muttertag (Mother’s Day), Weihnachten (Christmas), a typical school day and Die Märchen (fairy tales).

This book includes analysis grids that show where and how the Intercultural Strand of the Framework for Modern Languages is covered, both by objective and year group.

Finally, this book provides detailed plans for holding your own ‘German Day’ at school to raise the profile of MFL and enthuse both staff and children.
