*this isn’t a joke

With a spoon…

• Your German exams are on Weds 22nd May

• This is 6 weeks away

• Controlled Assessments are almost over, accounting for 60% of your final grade.

• What about the remaining 40%???

• Speaking and Writing account for 60% of the final grade

• Listening and Reading account for 40% of the final grade. Why?

• Because they are seen as easier skills.

• Note: Easier, NOT Easy

• … should be to revise some French words EVERY DAY from now until the exams

• Not EVERY WORD (the elephant) BUT a dozen or so (a spoonful?)

• There is no short cut to learning languages. You need to ‘upload’ the vocabulary into your BRAINS and this CANNOT be done the night before your exams…

• Build some vocabulary work into your daily routine… It needn’t be onerous (a burden), 10-15 minutes per day is better than 3 hours the night before

• Make use of online resources

• Remember Linguascope, in particular the ‘Intermediate section’. There are downloadable pdf files with useful vocab

• ACTIVE TEACH – on the VLE
