Packed with interesting and teenage-relevant cultural information on Germany, "Germany Live" can be used alongside any course book. It is the ideal way for teachers to meet the aims of the MFL framework, which requires an understanding of "cultural knowledge and contact". It also provides GCSE students with information on German culture for their chosen coursework options. Chapters include selected words and phrases in German that students are encouraged to learn. Background information and activities are in English, which means it can be used for individual or home study as well as cover lessons.
