To help learn these you may want to sing a song with them. For example, Montag Dienstag Happy days! Mittwoch Donnerstag Happy days! Freitag samstag happy days! etc….

For the months, well their quite simple. But heres a technique you can use for both of them.

1. Get a notepad and make sure to get a pencil and pencil sharpener (or a pen).

2. Write “montag – monday” Next line. ”montag – monday” Next line. ”montag – monday” Next line. ”montag – monday” Next line. Then do the same with “Dienstag – Tuesday” next line. ”Dienstag – Tuesday” next line. ”Dienstag – Tuesday” next line. ”Dienstag – Tuesday” next line. Then do the same will them all.

3. DO NOT type it out, as this will be no help at all.

4. Read them aloud as you write them. (Make sure not to disturb those around you).

5. Recycle the paper as squish as much as you can onto 1 page as you can. Use both sides too. We only have so much paper in the world you know!

6. Get a friend or relative to test you.

7. The ones you get stuck on, practise doing them again. Eventually you will get it.
