practice Irish and German aural tests

km79

just wondering are there and Irish and German aural tests online anywhere?
my son is in 2nd year and his aural tests keep bringing his overall mark down so he needs to practice them.
I tried skoool.is but the site must be down as it won't load?

forgot about examinations .ie
they will do

vamos!

The German marking schemes have the CD script at the bottom. Listen to CD or audio file from the internet and read along.
I don't know about examinations.ie just yet. My 2nd years are nowhere near ready to do J.Cert listening work yet. They haven't covered enough topics (directions, health, holidays come up every year). I would concentrate on getting him to learn vocabulary really well so that he can translate quickly.
What German book is he using? If he is using Viel Spass (I would imagine it's the most common one), it comes with a CD. Most of the little listening comprehensions are on it. Can he do the in class, correct them so that he has the answers and listen again at home? He could also listen to the little dialogues at the start of each chapter to become used to listening to the language.
He could also ask the teacher. I have a listening book which I use and type up my own simplified questions. I have lent the book to 3rd years who wanted extra practice. His teacher might just have a spare book or some other resources if he asks.

thanks it is viel spab and I think he had the CD now you mention it!

GERMAN ROCKS

theres also books out there which pratice only the aural.
horschatz 1
horthemen 1 junior
wie bitte

now the thing with these books is that you will have to ring the publisher for the cds and tape scripts and pay for them and the child will have to correct them himself. he will come across words he doesn't know in the script but just look up the dictionary for that single word.
