Wolves of the Coast 5 - Battle for the secret island in the Baltic Sea
The coastal wolves Lukas, Anna, Lisa, Finn and the vitalians Sara and Thomo fight their way through the jungle of the Secret Island in the Baltic Sea to free the adults from the pirate town of Libera. They are pursued by sinister creatures, get caught in a dangerous waterfall and are shot at from their own ship.
In Libera, however, Coastal Wolves and Vitalians are not welcome and have to flee from the henchmen of the corrupt king. Now they have only one hope: in a remote corner of the island they are to meet the mysterious Blackbeard. Was Störtebeker right with his prophecy? Will the island sink into the sea? And what is the greatest of all treasures that Sara keeps talking about?
But even with a cunning plan, helpful dolphins and the biggest pirate ship in the world, this battle is the biggest and most dangerous of all they have experienced so far. And everything turns out quite differently than expected...
Teaching concepts for a whole year of film lessons
Two manuals by Linda Hagspiel, André Nebe and Katrin von Kap-herr, "FilmClique" and "ClassroomFilms, each offer an elaborated teaching concept that optimally adapts content, learning objectives and teaching methods to everyday school life and the respective age group. They were scientifically developed and practically tested within the framework of a BMBF-funded project.
Film and media lessons for an entire school year (approx. 57 school lessons of 45 minutes each) are thus easily made possible. Elaborated lesson plans with suitable teaching methods, templates, worksheets and online references to clips and presentations help to considerably reduce the effort of lesson preparation.

Wolves of the Coast 4: The secret island in the baltic sea
For a year Lukas has heard nothing from the other coastal wolves or the Vitalians, when suddenly Sara stands in front of him, presses a gold coin into his hand and kisses him before disappearing. At the same time, Anna sends him a message to come to Usedom immediately. The map of a secret island in the Baltic Sea has been stolen by the Vitalians.
The coastal wolves set sail. Via Rostock, Wismar, Lübeck, Hamburg and Kiel, Lukas, Anna, Finn and Lisa pursue the thieves in search of the secret island. Near Fehmarn, their navigation suddenly goes haywire and the coastal wolves get caught in a dangerous whirlpool that pulls them down. The Vitalier's ship lies stranded on a sandbank, with no trace of the crew. Then the coastal wolves are also attacked.
Luke wakes up on a lonely palm beach. Where are the others? What is this place? Who is Blackbeard? The island is full of secrets and dangers. And the biggest can banish coastal wolves and Vitalier only together with new friends, if it is not already too late...

Wolves of the Coast 3: The secret ship
After three weeks on Usedom, Lukas' vacation comes to an end and he has to say goodbye to the other coastal wolves.
But hardly arrived at home in Berlin, Lukas is attacked in the night by the hostile Vitalians and must hand over the "Eyes of Störtebeker".
Since his father has forgotten something important on Usedom, Lukas is able to persuade his parents to let him return to the island. This way he can warn his friends that the Vitalians are up to something again - and besides, he still has the real "eyes".
But they have rejoiced too soon: with cunning and trickery, the young Vitalians Sara and Thomo get hold of one of the precious pearls. What is it about the "eyes of Störtebeker"?
In Stralsund, the coastal wolves learn part of the truth in the mysterious Library of the Sea: the pearls can supposedly magically lead to a legendary ship. The enemy pirates want to prevent the Coastal Wolves from finding it before they do at all costs, and they do not even shy away from kidnapping it.
So the coastal wolves are soon on their own. Should they give up or fight?
They trust the "eyes of Störtebeker", which lead them first to Greifswald, then in the direction of Fischland-Darß-Zingst. What awaits them there they could never have imagined in their wildest dreams.
Die Küstenwölfe - Band 2: Der Fluch des Schwarzen Korsaren
After the "Coastal Wolves" have stolen the treasure from the Black Corsair, Lukas, Anna, Lisa and Finn are looking forward to a relaxing vacation on the beach of Usedom. But soon they have to face new dangers. A suspicious
A suspicious brother and sister spy on the "coastal wolves", parts of the treasure are stolen, a curse from ancient times seems to control everyone - and the Black Corsair challenges Lukas to a duel at the pier at midnight.
The Joy finally want to know what it all means and pursue the mysterious pirate to the island of Rügen. But in the Great Jasmund Bodden only more riddles are waiting. What does the Black Corsair really want?
Who owns the second pirate ship that is suddenly cruising off the coast? How dangerous is the sea snake? And what do the legendary privateers Klaus Störtebeker and Gödecke Michels have to do with the curse?
Enemies become friends and friends become enemies, until it comes to the all-important battle on the Baltic Sea at night. Ready to board!

Die Küstenwölfe - Spuk auf der Ostsee
But parents never listen! Lukas had wanted a trip to the mountains for his birthday. Instead, he spends his summer vacation on the rainy Baltic Sea. In the worst storm he has ever experienced, he seeks refuge in old Knut's junk store. A short time later, Finn and the sisters Anna and Lisa are also blown into the store by the wind. Coincidence or fateful encounter?
When Anna offers to teach Lukas how to sail, their boring vacation days are numbered. A Morse code, an old prophecy, a missing diving suit and a stolen sailing ship pose all kinds of riddles for the friends.
Why are Anna and Lisa's grandfather, who currently lives on the deserted island of Ruden, behaving so strangely? What is it about the wolf that keeps appearing near them? And what is hidden on the stranded ship?
Their curiosity gets the "coastal wolves" into many a dicey situation - and their adversary is more dangerous than they could ever have dreamed. In a nightly sea battle, everything will be decided...
