The Klasse! series offers clearly structured double-page spreads with frequent objectives to give students attainable goals and a good sense of progress. It also offers clear presentation of grammar in the context of the unit topics; a focus on study skills to help students develop essential learning strategies; differentiation through Extra! sections; and Projekt pages which provide opportunities for individual and team work on projects. Regular pronunciation practice and opportunities for ICT are also provided, and Klasse! incorporates the Neue Rechtschreibung so students learn the new spellings from scratch. The series is supported by a free photocopiable booklet to anticipate the transition to the euro in 2002.
