E10 M - My English portfolio Klasse 10
Mini-description: Collect selected presentations, discussions, applications, CV tasks, mediation, reports, literary responses, current-events work and exam simulations. Then reflect on how your English has developed.
Target group: Klasse 10, M-Niveau, Englisch als erste Fremdsprache, Baden-Württemberg. The course works at a B1-oriented level: longer simple authentic texts, natural standard audio, more information, fewer hints and increasing independence.
Learning path: English first → understand → respond → analyse → communicate → feedback → revise → transfer.
Start task: Watch the opening of the presentation video. Write down three useful presentation phrases. Then say a 30-second opening for a topic you know well. Do not translate a German script first.
Safe and fair portfolio work
Use only fictional profiles for applications and CVs. Never publish real addresses, phone numbers or private data. Audio or video recordings are voluntary and may stay private. No upload is required.
AI support is optional. If you use it, keep your own first draft, mark the support you used, check factual claims and sources, and revise in your own words. Do not send private recordings or personal data to external AI services.
Your goal is clear communication, not accent-free English. Describe cultures and people through evidence and context, not stereotypes.
I-can goals
| I can ... | Portfolio evidence |
|---|---|
| understand the main points and relevant details in B1-level listening and viewing | listening notes and a short response |

Quick start: What is already in your toolbox?
Choose one English text from this school year. In two minutes, mark one strong sentence, one repeated problem and one place where you used a useful strategy.
Then complete in English:
- Strength: One thing I already do well is ...
- Challenge: One thing I still find difficult is ...
- Strategy: When I get stuck, I usually ...
- Goal: By the end of this portfolio, I want to ...
Portfolio map
Build a small but meaningful collection. Quality and reflection matter more than quantity.
| Portfolio piece | Main skill | Keep as evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Presentation | structure, free speaking, spontaneous reaction | cue card, slide or reflection |
| Discussion | interaction, negotiation, compromise | argument map and partner feedback |
| Fictional application | formal register and purpose | first draft and revised version |
| Fictional CV | concise factual writing | one-page CV |
| Mediation | selecting and transferring relevant meaning | source notes and mediated response |
| Report or article | factual structure or audience-focused writing | final text plus source note |
| Literary response | point, evidence, explanation | paragraph or short response |
| Current-events work | source checking and viewpoint analysis | dated source card |
| Exam simulation | timing, task control and strategy | result plus error analysis |
Listening and Viewing
Presentation language
Listen once for the main idea. Listen again for structure.
Focus:
- Opening: introduce the topic and purpose
- Signposting: guide the listener through your points
- Closing: summarise and invite questions
Response task: Give a one-minute presentation opening. Use only keywords.
Application and interview language
Listen for phrases that show strengths through examples. Then answer one fictional interview question: Tell me about a situation where you worked well with others.
Keep the profile fictional. A useful answer gives a situation, an action and a result.
CV listening and vocabulary
After viewing, note three qualities of a useful CV. Then compare them with your fictional CV.
Pronunciation for communication
Aim for intelligibility. Practise:
- Word stress: stress the important syllable in longer words
- Sentence stress: stress key information, not every word
- Thought groups: pause at meaningful points
- Final sounds: make endings clear when they carry meaning
- Repair strategies: repeat, rephrase or slow down when needed
Micro-practice: Shadow 20 seconds of one video. Then speak the same idea in your own words. Do not imitate an accent; copy useful rhythm and clarity.
Reading and current-events work
Use a recent English-language source selected by your teacher or class. Record the date, author or organisation, title and source.
Read in three passes:
- Understand: What happened or what is the main issue?
- Analyse: Which statements are facts, explanations or opinions?
- Respond: What is one justified response or question?
Do not copy a full article into your portfolio. Use short notes and your own summary.
If a source includes political claims, separate factual reporting from attributed opinion and compare claims with reliable evidence.
Source check
Before using information, ask:
| Check | Question |
|---|---|
| Author | Who produced this information? |
| Date | Is it current enough for my task? |
| Evidence | What supports the main claim? |
| Purpose | Is the source informing, persuading, selling or entertaining? |
| Cross-check | Can an important claim be confirmed elsewhere? |
Context vocabulary
Learn phrases through functions, not isolated lists.
| Function | Useful language |
|---|---|
| Presenting | I'd like to focus on ... / The main point is ... |
| Adding evidence | According to the source ... / This suggests that ... |
| Discussing | I see your point, but ... / Another way to look at it is ... |
| Negotiating | Could we agree on ...? / A possible compromise would be ... |
| Formal writing | I am writing to apply for ... / I would be pleased to ... |
| Reporting | The aim of this report is ... / The results show ... |
| Reflecting | Compared with my first version ... / My next step is ... |
Vocabulary rule: Keep new words with a phrase, example or situation. Do not learn long translation lists.
Speaking: present, discuss, react
Presentation
Use opening → two or three clear points → conclusion → questions.
Do not memorise a full script. Use a small cue card with keywords. Practise one unexpected follow-up question after each rehearsal.
Discussion and negotiation
Your aim is not to speak the most. Your aim is to build a useful conversation.
Try this pattern:
claim → reason → example → reaction → question → compromise
Useful moves:
- Agreeing: I agree with that because ...
- Partial agreement: I see your point, but ...
- Clarifying: Do you mean that ...?
- Inviting: What do you think about ...?
- Compromise: Could we combine both ideas?
Writing portfolio
Formal and informal email
Decide first: Who am I writing to? Why? What result do I want?
A formal email usually needs a clear subject, appropriate greeting, concise purpose, useful details and a polite ending. An informal message can sound more personal and relaxed.
Transfer task: Write the same basic message once to a friend and once to an internship contact. Change register, not the facts.
Fictional application and CV
Use a made-up applicant and a made-up organisation.
Application: connect your skills to the fictional role. Give short examples instead of empty claims.
CV: keep information concise, consistent and easy to scan.
Never use real addresses, dates of birth, phone numbers or private photos.
Report, article and opinion
Report: organise factual findings and give a clear conclusion or recommendation.
Article: engage the target reader and structure the main message clearly.
Opinion: state a position, support it with reasons and evidence, and address another view fairly.
Literary response
Use a simple analytical structure:
point → short evidence from the text → explanation → link to the question
Do not retell the whole plot. Explain how a detail supports your interpretation.
Mediation
Mediation is not word-for-word translation.
You transfer the information another person needs for a purpose.
Before speaking or writing, decide:
- Purpose: What does the other person need to know?
- Audience: What background knowledge do they have?
- Selection: Which information is relevant?
- Adaptation: Which details need explanation?
- Clarity: Can the message be understood without the original text?
Mini-task: A German school notice explains a change to a class trip. An English-speaking exchange student only needs time, meeting point, equipment and what to do if late. Mediate only these points.
Functional grammar
Grammar is a tool for meaning.
| Situation | Grammar focus |
|---|---|
| telling experience in an application | past simple and present perfect |
| discussing options | modals and conditionals |
| giving reasons and contrast | linking words and complex sentences |
| reporting information | passive forms and reporting verbs |
| describing plans and consequences | future forms and conditionals |
| improving cohesion | pronouns, reference words and paragraph links |
Grammar repair: When you find an error, write the corrected sentence and one new sentence using the same structure.
Feedback → revise
Use a short feedback loop.
| Step | Question |
|---|---|
| Glow | What already works for the reader or listener? |
| Grow | What one change would make the message clearer? |
| Revise | What exactly will I change? |
| Check | Did the revision improve meaning, structure or accuracy? |
Keep the first draft. A portfolio should show development, not only polished final products.
Error analysis
| My recurring error | Corrected example | What I need to remember | New example |
|---|---|---|---|
| ... | ... | ... | ... |
Group errors by pattern: tense, word order, article, preposition, spelling, register, cohesion or unclear meaning.
Exam link: current official conditions
Prüfungscheck: Stand 2 October 2026, Baden-Württemberg, Realschulabschluss 2027. The current official rules for the Pflichtfremdsprache state:[1]
| Area | Current official condition |
|---|---|
| Written exam | Parts A to E: listening, text-based tasks, contextual vocabulary and grammar, topic-based writing, and method/work-technique tasks |
| Working time | 150 minutes, plus a 20-minute break between Part A and Parts B-E |
| Part A | 30 minutes; no dictionary |
| Parts B-E | 120 minutes; bilingual English-German/German-English dictionary |
| Writing D1 | about 100 words; official tolerance 90-120 |
| Writing D2 | about 160 words; official tolerance 140-200 |
| Interpreting | included in Part E2 |
| Communication exam | monologue, dialogue and mediation; about 15 minutes per student; the three parts are roughly equal in length |
| Preparation time in communication exam | no separate preparation time for the three parts |
| Order | monologue → dialogue → mediation, without a break |
The official 2027 main date for English is 3 May 2027; the official communication-exam window is 22 February to 2 March 2027.[2]
For the current school year 2026/27, Klasse 10 still uses the earlier BP2016 implementation; the revised V2 content becomes relevant for the Realschulabschlussprüfung from 2028/29.[3]
Important: Check the ministry documents again shortly before an exam simulation because official rules can change. School-specific organisation may also differ within the official framework.
