Duitse Zinsstructuren Primair is een werkboek gericht op jonge leerlingen (7 tot 12 jaar oud), mede geschreven door zeven leraren moderne vreemde talen met samen meer dan 110 jaar uitgebreide leservaring, zowel in Nederland, het Verenigd Koninkrijk als internationaal; inclusief meer dan 20 jaar ervaring in het primair onderwijs.Dit boek 'zonder franje' bevat 10 hoofdstukken over zeer populaire thema's bomvol activiteiten voor stapsgewijze opbouw van woordenschat en lees-, vertaal-, herhaal-, oefen- en schrijfactiviteiten, die belangrijke woordenschat en lexicale patronen en structuren herhalen en afwisselen.Elk hoofdstuk bevat: een schema met zinsstructuren die constructies in de doeltaal modelleren, ingeleid door vragen om de communicatie te begeleiden;een reeks luisteren-om-te-modelleren activiteiten om decoderingsvaardigheden, geluidsbewustzijn, segmentatie van spraakklanken, lexicaal ophalen en syntactisch ontleden te trainen;een reeks leestaken die zich richten op zowel de betekenis als de structuur van de tekst;een reeks vertaaltaken gericht op consolidatie door middel van het ophalen van kennis;een reeks schrijftaken gericht op belangrijke microvaardigheden zoals spelling, ophalen van woordenschat, syntax en bewerken en communiceren van betekenis.Gebaseerd op het E.P.I. principe dat leerlingen het best leren van begrijpelijke input met veel patronen en overspoeld met de taalkundige kenmerken van de doeltaal, hebben de auteurs elke tekst en activiteit zorgvuldig ontworpen om de leerling in staat te stellen elk item vele malen opnieuw te verwerken en te produceren.Naast de hoofdstukken vind je 'Geen Slangen Geen Ladders'-taken die zijn gemaakt om spreekvaardigheid te oefenen met een boeiend en leuk bordspel dat kan worden gekopieerd en gespeeld in groepen van 3 leerlingen.De audiotracks voor alle luisteractiviteiten zijn gratis toegankelijk in het AUDIO-gedeelte van de website: www.language-gym.com/listeningDe SentenceBuilders.com website is een ideale aanvulling bij dit boek.

The Malay Sentence Builders is a workbook aimed at beginner to pre-intermediate students co-authored by three modern languages educators with over 70 years of extensive classroom experience between them, in the UK, Australia and internationally.This 'no-frills' book contains 19 units of work on very popular themes, jam-packed with graded vocabulary-building, reading, translation, retrieval practice and writing activities. 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; - 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 retrieval-practice translation tasks; - a set of writing tasks targeting essential micro-skills such as spelling, lexical retrieval, syntax, editing and communication of meaning. Based on the 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. This occurs throughout each unit of work as well as in smaller grammar, vocabulary and question-skills micro-units located at regular intervals in the book, which aim at reinforcing the understanding and retention of the target grammar, vocabulary and question patterns.

Antwoordenboek!Het boek bevat 19 hoofdstukken die te maken hebben met een specifieke communicatieve functie, zoals 'Het uiterlijk en de persoonlijkheid van mensen beschrijven', 'Mensen vergelijken en contrasteren', 'Zeggen wat je wel en niet leuk vindt' of 'Zeggen wat jij en anderen in de vrije tijd doen'. In de inhoudsopgave van dit boek is per hoofdstuk de communicatieve functie aagegeven. Elk hoofdstuk bevat: een schema met zinsstructuren die constructies in de doeltaal modelleren;een reeks oefeningen om de woordenschat op te bouwen;een reeks zeer begrijpelijke leesteksten die worden gebruikt voor een diversiteit aan takendie zich richten op zowel de betekenis als de structuur van de tekst;een reeks vertaaltaken om de stof op te halen;een reeks schrijftaken gericht op belangrijke microvaardigheden zoals spelling, ophalen van woordenschat, syntax en bewerken en communiceren van betekenis.Elk schema met zinsstructuren aan het begin van een hoofdstuk bevat één of meer constructies die zijn geselecteerd met real-life communicatie in gedachten. Elk hoofdstuk is rond die constructie(s) gebouwd, maar niet uitsluitend daarop. Gebaseerd op het principe dat elke EPI-instructiereeks van modellering naar productie moet gaan, breidt elk hoofdstuk het materiaal in elk schema met zinsstructuren uit door het in te bedden in teksten en stapsgewijs opgebouwde taken die zowel bekende als onbekende (maar begrijpelijke en leerbare) woordenschat en structuren bevatten. Door veel en zorgvuldig hergebruik en uitgebreide verwerking van de input, heeft de leerling aan het einde van elk hoofdstuk veel mogelijkheden om met de nieuwe woordenschat en patronen geconfronteerd te worden en deze te verwerken met materiaal van voorgaande hoofdstukken.Naast de hoofdstukken bevat het boek: grammaticablokken: één of twee pagina's met activiteiten regelmatig verspreid tussen de hoofdstukken. Ze richten zich expliciet op de belangrijkste grammaticale structuren die de generatieve kracht van de schema's met zinsstructuren versterken. Op dit niveau gaan ze vooral over de vervoegingen van belangrijke werkwoorden in de tegenwoordige tijd, geven ze de leerlingen een inleiding tot het gebruik van naamvallen en bieden ze mogelijkheden om vertrouwen op te bouwen met de Duitse woordvolgorde;blokken vraagvaardigheden: één of twee pagina's over het begrijpen en maken van vragen. Ook deze blokken komen regelmatig verspreid tussen de hoofdstukken in het boek voor, om dezelfde vraagpatronen in verschillende taalkundige contexten te hergebruiken;blokken 'Even Herhalen': dit zijn herhalingsoefeningen die erop gericht zijn de eerder geleerde woordenschat levend te houden. Ook deze komen regelmatig voor;zelftesten: deze tref je aan het einde van het boek aan. Ze zijn verdeeld in twee secties, een voor minder zelfverzekerde een een voor meer zelfverzekerde leerlingen.Het doel van alle bovenstaande blokken is om veel systematisch hergebruik en afwisseling te implementeren, twee technieken die een sterkere retentie en overdracht van leren mogelijk maken.
