Turning Point Secondary School – Advanced German III

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

The emphasis of German III is the strengthening of the three modes of communication. The Advanced German III student will read and discuss a variety of cultural and literary selections. A more sophisticated use of German will be fostered through writing and conversational opportunities. Advanced Level III students are expected to reach a proficiency level of Intermediate High. Students at the Intermediate High proficiency level express meaning in a variety of contexts by creating with the language, easily combining and recombining what they know, what they read, and what they hear in a mixture of sentences and connected discourse. Advanced German III will focus on the same TEKS prescribed by the State of Texas for the language level but will emphasize advanced application of listening, reading, speaking, and writing skills. Students will be challenged with instruction designed at a greater depth in order to prepare for Advanced Placement (AP) and/or International Baccalaureate (IB) courses.
