Grimm German Grammar

Grimm Grammar characters: The Bremer Travelling MusiciansFrom the Uni­ver­sity of Texas, Grimm Gram­mar uses clas­sic Grimm Fairy Tales updated for the 21st cen­tury.  From the about page of the site:

The pri­mary audi­ence for Grimm Gram­mar is the begin­ning lan­guage learner.  Each part of speech – e.g., adjec­tive, adverb, noun, verb – is intro­duced by a sec­tional overview, and then fur­ther explained in rel­e­vant, thor­oughly cross-referenced sub-topics: e.g., arti­cles, the past tense of reg­u­lar verbs, etc.

Gram­mar descrip­tions in English/German and self-correcting exer­cises pro­mote the under­stand­ing of gram­mar con­cepts through plau­si­ble com­mu­nica­tive con­texts – what some­one might actu­ally say in real life – using pre­dom­i­nantly discourse-length lan­guage samples.
