What we saw at school (4)• Working with a partner was practiced even in the 1st grade• Groupwork was possitively influenced by the presence of special leaders (7th grade)• English lessons starting in the 1st grade are not usual in many german schools – but we recognized good results at your school

– some of them we will take home with us to try them

•„Walk on the line with numbers“ is a good method to learn how to count in different steps (Maths, 1st grade)

• The game „Collecting and changing stones“ is a good method to understand the possition system (Maths, 3rd grade)
