This book is meant as a revision resource for GCSE German. It can be used independently by students as well as for teacher-directed classroom practice. It contains 16 units which focus mainly on the themes: myself, family and relationships, daily activities, my role model, hobbies and leisure.Each unit consists of a knowledge organiser recapping the target sentence patterns and lexical items, a series of receptive vocabulary building activities; a set of narrow reading texts and activities; a set of translation tasks. The tasks are graded in order to pose an increasingly demanding but manageable cognitive load and challenge and are based on Dr Conti's P.I.P.O. framework: Pre-reading tasks (activation of prior knowledge and pre-teaching)In-reading tasks (intensive exploitation of texts)Post-reading tasks (consolidation)Output (pushed-output tasks)Consistent with Dr Conti's E.P.I. approach, each of the 16 units in the book provide extensive recycling of the target lexical items both within each unit and throughout the book, across all the dimensions of receptive and productive processing, i.e.: orthography (single letters and syllables), lexis (both words and chunks), grammar/syntax (with much emphasis on functional and positional processing), meaning and discourse.The recycling occurs through input-flooding and forced retrieval through a wide range of engaging, tried and tested, classic Conti tasks (more than 20 per unit). These include student favourites such as slalom writing, faulty translation, spot the missing detail, sentence puzzles, etc.Table of contents1 Introducing myself2 Describing myself, my family and friends3 Talking about my hobbies and interests4 Describing a typical day in school5 Describing what I do after school6 Talking about a typical weekend7 Talking about what I did last weekend8 Talking about when I was younger9 Discussing the qualities of a good friend10 Describing the qualities of a good partner11 Saying why I don't get along with people12 Saying why I get along with people13 Saying why I argue with my parents14 Discussing why couples break up15 Talking about a person I admire16 Bringing it all together - Parts 1-5

Key vocabulary, lexical patterns and structures are recycled and interleaved throughout.Each unit includes:a sentence builder modelling the target constructions;a set of vocabulary building activities which reinforce the material;a set of narrow reading texts exploited through a range of tasks focusing on both the meaning and structural levels of the text;a set of translation tasks aimed at consolidation through retrieval practice;a set of writing tasks targeting essential writing micro-skills such as spelling, functional and positional processing, editing and communication of meaning.Alongside the macro-units you will find:grammar units: one or two pages of activities occurring at regular intervals. They explicitly focus on key grammar structures which enhance the generative power of the constructions in the sentence builders. At this level they mainly concern themselves with full conjugations of key verbs, with agreement and preposition usage. Note that these units recycle the same verbs many times over by revisiting at regular intervals but in different linguistic contexts;question-skills units: one or two pages on understanding and creating questions. These micro-units too occur at regular intervals in the book, so as to recycle the same question patterns in different linguistic contexts;revision quickies: these are retrieval practice tasks aimed at keeping the previously learnt vocabulary alive. These too occur at regular intervals;self-tests: these occur at the end of the book. They are divided into two sections, one for less confident and one for more confident learners¿Based on the Extensive Processing Instruction (E.P.I.) principle that learners learn best from comprehensible and highly patterned input flooded with the target linguistic features, the authors have carefully designed each and every text and activity to enable the student to process and produce each item many times over.
