VOCABULARY REVISION
You are all working with different books and on different topics. Here is some advice on how to revise your vocabulary properly during your spring holidays.
Option 1: Create a list of the the most difficult words of each unit and write them 3 times!
Option 2: Write down the most difficult words of each unit on a little card (German/ English) and revise them regularly. 10 minutes per day should be fine.
Option 3: Continue working with your Phase 6 programme.
Option 4: Check out this website and type in the name of your unit. Practice the new vocabulary by playing games or working through the flashcards.
