S1 german Podcast: Meine Familie

Hello S1 students

Here is the podcast version of your latest vocabulary guide: "Meine Familie". As usual download it and save it to use as a revision tool. I have posted 2 versions of it. The first is an mp4 version which is a smaller file but can only be saved on the newer generation of players (ie those that can play video). With nbthis version you can listen to the separate chapters. The second version is you standard mp3 file playable on most mp3 players (surprisingly enough!!!!)

At the end of the vocabulary section you will hear a conversation between myself and Judith, out German assistant, in which we use the vocabulary found in the guide.

Once again if you have any comments to make about this guide feel free to do so.
