Summary of Course Layout

The German Elementary 2 course consists of 180 lesson days formatted in an intuitive calendar view,

which can be divided into two 90-day semesters. The content for each week is based on an immersive

adventure story which runs throughout the course with weekly episodes beginning in English and each

day weaving in more German. Although the course focuses principally on vocabulary acquisition, basic

grammar principles are intuitively grasped through the story, games, activities, and assessments. Culture

lessons are presented through multi-media CultureGrams™ lessons covering cultural aspects of major

German-speaking areas in Europe.

Overall Course Objectives

Get comfortable with the sounds and rhythms of German

Expand their listening and reading comprehension with more than 600 vocabulary words

Expand their ability to read, write, speak and listen for meaning in German

Recognize distinctive practices and products of various German-speaking countries

Presentation of Culture through CultureGrams™ and Culture Videos

Assessments

o Adventure Story comprehension quizzes verify that students are following the ongoing immersive story and that they are picking up key ideas and vocabulary as they work along.

o Culture comprehension quizzes verify that students have captured facts and key understandings from the cultural presentations.

o End-of-week quizzes assess students’ comprehension of the main vocabulary words presented that week. Students are typically responsible for learning 15-20 new vocabulary words or phrases each week.

Oral and Written Activities

o Each week, students complete oral or written activities. These activities give students a chance to become more familiar with the target vocabulary and basic speaking and writing patterns of German by applying them in simplified communicative situations.
