German Music Quiz with Medley of German songs

This quiz is based on a six minute medley of German songs and it is aimed at intermediate German learners. It would be ideal as an introduction to the topic of music or as a fun game at the end of term. It includes 12 different genres of music from folk to heavy metal and an exercise on description words to give opinions about music. If played in teams it usually takes about 20-30 min - students answer questions about the genre, description and content and guess which band picture goes with which song.

End of Term activity using authentic resources for beginners' German

End of Term activity using authentic resources for beginners' German

(0)
Here is an idea how to add more authentic resources as asked for in the new specifications. This is a worksheet and a presentation based on a German pop song and includes a gap fill, a translation task and a creative project. The song is slow and suitable for beginners but is ideally used after the introduction of numbers and plurals. (E.g. in chapter 2 of Stimmt 1). This download includes a PowerPoint with an introduction, the answer to the tasks and a translation of the text, a worksheet and a lesson plan. Note: This unit of work is based on the song Einmal by Die Prinzen. Please make sure you can access it on YouTube or somewhere else before buying. The song is not included.
