This App is good because it tests your knowledge of a language before starting. This means you can work at your own pace, going through the activities as many times as you like in order to learn vocabulary, pronunciation, word order and more.
It also creates a 'streak' for you, so that you are encouraged to complete the tasks everyday, thus practicing the language everyday. Additionally, the app sends daily reminders to your email.]]> 2016-11-03 14:13:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/135087032 mgarnett1 https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/135386628 DATE:3/11

I found this channel whilst looking for a youtube tutorial to help me better learn and understand the articles:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRF9c-X6HrU

The videos are slow paced and not too long which means that they are easy to follow and I am able to click back and hear things repeated.]]> 2016-11-04 14:16:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/135386628 mgarnett1 https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/138164838 DATE: 16/11

These simple games are a good way to practice and learn phrases, numbers and more on a basic level. I found it fairly easy to complete them, but repeatedly hearing the phrases and matching them to the English helped me learn them.

I found this website after getting a little bored of the repetitive games on digital dialect, as it was the same matching game for each subject. This website, however, has a wealth of different types of games, like match the pairs, bingo,  memory and pattern games, along with worksheets and simple lessons. I found the website really easy to navigate and is something I can go back to, to learn the same thing in many different ways.
I specifically use this website to learn and practice pronouns, verbs and adverbs.

This song on youtube is the german alphabet to the popular and well known children's song in the UK. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxQXEyMMC0E&feature=youtu.be

This made it easy to remember and follow along.
I thought I knew the german alphabet well enough but the mock speaking exam proved that I could do with some practice remembering how to pronounce specific letters such as J, V and W.]]> 2016-12-01 14:07:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/141100236 mgarnett1 https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/141346314 DATE: 02/12

I made my own set of quizlet flashcards with questions and answers on that I hope will prepare me for the speaking exam.

I like the quizlet app because it means I can practice this on the go. I also like that it creates games using the information you put onto your flashcards.]]> 2016-12-02 11:39:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/141346314 mgarnett1 https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/143568560 DATE: 02/12
A friend recommended this film to me so I watched this in German, once with English subtitles and once without. This was very useful as I was able to recognize words we have learned in lessons and some that i heard in the film from watching it more than once.]]> 2016-12-14 11:57:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/143568560 mgarnett1 https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/143568845 DATE: 05/12
I am a big fan of disney songs, so I know most of the words. Listening to them in German meant I could follow what was being said ( sung) and understand some of the German words I had never heard before.

Some of the words were different though, so I had to keep an eye out for these using subtitles]]> 2016-12-14 11:59:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mgarnett1/qp7xhsv9e0jt/wish/143568845
