Great Britain before they look at page 6. Draw a simple sketch of Britain on the
board, mark in five dots for Oxford, London, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Cambridge
and write the place names in a list on the board. Ask the students to draw a

Warm-up • As your students come into the class, greet them by name: Hello (Anna) etc.
• Get your students to introduce themselves to any “new” students.
Photo page • Give students a little time to look at the photos on pages 12 –13.
• Remind students where Oxford is situated (see map on page 6) and of the names
of the main characters (Emma and Oliver). If necessary, refer back to the text on
page 6.
• Point to the photos and introduce them: This is Oxford, this is Rose Cottage etc.
• Point out to the students that they can find translations of unknown words, e. g.
twin town, in the Dictionary at the back of the book (pages 141 –148).
• Answer questions about the photos but avoid spending too long on this phase.

Option • For further practice, ask your students to do exercise 2 of the Language study in
pairs or orally round the class.
Dialogue: Part 1 • Students cover the printed text with a piece of paper and look at the photo.
• Ask them if they can remember the names of the people in the photo (Marilyn,
Emma, Oliver) and give a quick summary of the story in German. The storyline is
described on page 8 of the coursebook.
T 1/4 0’28” • Play the dialogue once and let the students listen. Stress the fact that it doesn’t
matter if they don’t understand every word.
• Play the dialogue a second time. Students look at the text this time.
• Be ready to answer any vocabulary questions. Try and get over the meaning of
unknown words and phrases via mime, gesture, blackboard sketches etc. You can
illustrate the meaning of this is … for example by asking two students to come to
the front of the class and introducing them to each other. Try not to spend too long
over this. If students still don’t understand, give a quick German translation.
• Point out that English has only one word you for “du”, “Sie” and “ihr”.
• Play the dialogue a third time. Push the pause button after each sentence and ask
students to repeat in chorus. If you find that the repetition phase goes on too
long, just get students to repeat some of the new language items.
• Model the /ð/ in this and the /θ/ in thank you, showing them the tongue position.
These are new sounds for the German speaker so get students practising them
right from the first lessons. They will soon feel more confident when using them.
Activities: Part 1 Here are a few suggestions for conducting the activities successfully.
• Read out or get students to read the instruction and example, then demonstrate
the activity with one or two students before groupwork commences.
• Difficult structures, e. g. the short answer and pronunciation problems, can be
quickly brought to the attention of the students via a quick blackboard
presentation using sketches, boxes, arrows etc.
• Walk around the room as soon as the students have started to make sure that
everyone has understood the instructions. If one or two groups have
misunderstood, repeat the instructions to them in a quiet voice, so as not to
interrupt those who are doing it correctly.
• While the students are doing an activity, be available to answer questions or make
corrections when appropriate.
• Don’t let the activity go on too long.
1a Pronunciation: • Let the students look at the activity and read the explanation.
Listen and repeat. • Play the sentences once and just let the students listen.
T 1/5 0’25” • Play the sentences again, press the pause button after each sentence and get
the students to repeat in chorus and individually.
1b Nice to meet you. • Ask students to read the instructions and write their answers individually.
• Act out the dialogue with one of the students so that everyone can check their
answers.
• Ask students to practise the dialogues in pairs taking it in turn to be “Ann”.
• Go round the class making sure that students link correctly: I’mAnn, Comein etc.
1c Are you Claudia? • The short answer is a difficult structure in English so write it again on the board
and point out that the answers yes and no on their own sound fairly abrupt and
impolite.
Board Yes, I am.

Are you …?
No, I’m not.
• Practise the short answers in class by asking students questions with Are you
(Hans)? making sure you get both yes and no answers.
• Students stand up and walk around the class asking and answering.

the following headings:
Board town in Britain / the USA country / language sport / game food / drink
• Say a letter, e. g. s and ask students to write down a town that starts with s etc.
• Students fill in as many of the four columns as possible. Set a time limit of three
or four minutes.

follows: three points for a word if only one group has written it; two points for a
word if two groups have written the same word; one point for a word if more than
two groups have written the same word.
