2	Production: In speaking students can introduce him/herself and answer questions about personal details. With frequently used expressions that have been learned by heart, he/she may interact in routine matters such as shopping, going to restaurant, seeing a doctor, and travelling, provided the other person adjusts themselves to his/her limited language skills. In writing students will be able to provide simple, everyday information (e.g. postcards), fill out forms with personal data, connect simple sentences to write about his/her immediate environment, daily routines, and family and friends.
3	Reflection: Students will be able to self-correct their vocabulary use and conjugated forms in structured dialogues, if the teacher provides hints. They will gain social-cultural competences in German-speaking countries like greetings, dealing with time, behavior in public, or responding to personal invitation. Students will also be able to reflect in his/her native language on experiences in learning German, on their personal learning strategies, define their own learning goals and assess their progress accordingly.
