The children on the German Programme learn all about word types. The best way is to tell the children a story! A Fairytale they will always remember!
The children enjoyed the story about the Prince and Princess Nouns, who live and rule in the invisible Land of Word Types. The children were happy to play the Prince and the Princess Nouns, to discover the nouns around the classroom and to organize them into the right Tower of the Nouns castle. That helps them to remember well what nouns are.
They also learned about the little Accompanists of the Prince and Princess Nouns. And of course, they have met Professor Adjektiv, who helped the children to discover adjectives around the classroom and describing things!
