Kinder- und Jugendliteratur im Deutschunterricht
Updated: November 2009
The materials represent the work of a number of German teachers, whose names and e-mail addresses are listed with their contribution, whenever possible. Please feel free to copy the materials for use in class. Please contact the contributor for more information on implementation. If you have materials for works that you'd like to see on this site, please contact Beverly Moser or Buck Lyon-Vaiden.
We have attempted to classify the works represented here according to levels.
Level 1 = beginning German, 1st year secondary, 1st semester post-secondary;
Level 2 = beginning/intermediate German, 2nd year secondary, 2nd semester post-secondary, and so on.This is not an exact science, however. You may need to look in two levels in order to find works appropriate for your particular group.
