Below you will find a winter-themed matching puzzle that we created for German learners.
Matching exercises are a great way to help language learners build their skills while keeping things fun and engaging. They make learning feel less like hard work and more like a puzzle to solve.
Winter-themed matching exercises add a seasonal touch that keeps students interested. Words about winter weather, winter clothes, or seasonal activities help learners expand their vocabulary. They’re simple, effective, and a great resource for busy teachers.

Once students complete the matching exercise, you can build on it to deepen their learning. For example, ask them to use the new vocabulary in sentences or short paragraphs to practice writing skills. Alternatively, turn the exercise into a speaking activity by having students work in pairs to create dialogues using the words. These extensions help make the vocabulary more memorable and the lesson more interactive.
