KIKUS-Materialien

This set of materials provides everything you need to teach German to young children and to actively involve them in learning the language. The set of 350 flashcards introduces themes relevant to children's experiences such as family, clothing, animals, etc., as well as verbs, numbers, colours and prepositions. These cards offer a playful introduction to basic vocabulary, enabling games and activities such as bingo, story building, and word and sentence building. 30 worksheets with accompanying small-format picture cards reinforce the new vocabulary through craft activities such as tracing, colouring, cutting out and sticking. The "Guten Morgen" CD has 11 action songs to get children moving and the songbook contains a worksheet for colouring with a storyline for every song and the song text on the back, plus instructions for the actions. The teacher's book contains a summary of the theoretical background of the "KIKUS" course, detailed suggestions and examples for using the materials, information and tips for planning and implementing units and classes, and information on language promotion in young children.
