Printable A2 German worksheet on the dative case: articles, pronouns, dative verbs and prepositions, with negatives and questions. Answers included.
Start by reviewing the dative article table (dem – der – dem – den + -n) and the question word wem before Exercise 1. Typical mistakes are using the accusative after helfen or danken (*Ich helfe den Mann), forgetting the -n in the dative plural (*den Kinder), and confusing dich/dir and mich/mir. As a follow-up, have pairs ask each other 'Wem gehört …?' and 'Wie gefällt dir …?' about objects in the classroom.
