Key Stage 1 German launch

EducationCity.com is delighted to announce the launch of its Key Stage 1 German ready for the 2009/2010 new school year.

EducationCity.com supports the compulsory language curriculum with its Key Stage 1 German launch

Like EducationCity.com’s existing Modern Foreign Language modules for French and Spanish at Key Stage 1, the new German module is ideally placed to support non-linguist staff deliver the new compulsory modern languages curriculum.

Including not only rich, interactive activities, but also printable activity sheets, easy-to-use lesson plans and comprehensive Teacher Notes, the module has been designed to be used without prior knowledge of the German language, because in primary schools today EducationCity.com knows everyone may be called upon to help deliver modern languages to their young linguists.

With lively sing-along nursery rhymes to raise pupils’ awareness of German, and activities which slowly introduce and reinforce vocabulary, EducationCity.com’s Key Stage 1 German module is a fantastic introduction to German and ideal for:

• embracing children’s natural curiosity and excitement about a foreign language 
• making children aware of the different sounds involved in German,
• helping children understand that, despite the difference in sounds, the foreign language holds meaning in exactly the way that their mother tongue does. 

Matt Drakard, Director of EducationCity.com says “Our Key Stage 1 German module is a fantastic addition to our resource as it gives schools a wide choice of languages to teach at the earliest level.”

“I am really looking forward to seeing it in schools, helping teachers to make language learning more hands-on from the outset, and am confident that the positive experience the children have of German today will encourage them to continue with languages to a higher level and stand them in good stead for future language learning.”

EducationCity.com is offering the Key Stage 1 German an introductory rate of just £45/year until 30th September 2009 (a saving of 25% on our standard subscription of £60/year). For more information, a FREE Trial or to subscribe, please call 0844 225 3060 or email sales@educationcity.com.
