What you’ll learn

I can confidently take part in the role-play and read aloud elements of the German speaking exam.

Key learning points

  • It is important to have a good knowledge of sound-symbol correspondences to accurately read aloud in German.
  • Look out for tricky sounds and cognates, and mentally rehearse before reading aloud.
  • When performing a role-play, answers should be a short phrase or sentence. Do not add unnecessary detail.
  • Choose words you know how to pronounce well, so that your responses are clear.

Words to know

SSC
(sound-symbol correspondence) the relationship between letters and their sounds

Common mistakes

Like in a picture description and conversation, I should develop my role-play answers as much as possible.

When performing a role-play, answers should be a short phrase or sentence. Pupils should not add too much unnecessary detail.

For parents, carers and teachers
  • The 'read aloud' and 'role-play' learning cycles contain separate tasks for Foundation and Higher-tier students.
