Today our Year 3-5 students were given a challenge. They worked in small groups to try and match 12 pictures of food and drinks with the matching word. It was a challenge as this was before any learning about the subject!

A lot of students found that there are strong links between some German and English words (like Salat/salad, Kaffee/coffee) and that we actually use some German words in our everyday language (Schnitzel).

We then looked at the terms for meal times (Fruhstuck, Mittagessen, Abendessen und Nachtisch) and started sorting pictures of food into the ‘best fit’ mealtime.
