The successful language support for students learning German as a second language (DaZ) begins with the way conversations are conducted in the classroom. How can you, as a teacher, optimally address the different language levels of your students during lessons? How can you also recognize and promote the individual potentials of the children? This guide offers you methodological and didactic suggestions for consciously shaping your own teaching. Opportunities for reflection on your own (linguistic) role in the classroom, as well as templates that allow you to trace the language and life biographies of your students, create a perfect foundation for effective language support. Building on this, the book provides you with numerous planning aids for lessons and practical worksheets that enable your students to systematically deepen their knowledge in the areas of academic language and vocabulary.
