The subject of the product try-out was the seventh grade students of SMP Negeri 1 Gempol. The data were gathered using the interview guide expert validation checklist and students questionnaires. The final product of this study was presented in the form of paper-based materials and the audio recording was attached inside CD/DVD. The listening materials were developed in three packages. Package A focused on oral short functional text type namely shopping lists (Shopping at the Grocery Store). Package B focused on greeting cards (Celebrating the New Year). Package C covered announcements (Traveling to some Islands in Indonesia). The answer key and tape script were inserted to each of the packages to allow the learners to do self-reflection. The result of the expert validation showed that the materials still needed further revision because the content of the materials did not conform to the Standard of Content of 2006. However the materials reflected the 2013 English Curriculum because the content of materials combined transactional and functional conversations. According to the students when they gave feedback after the product try-out the materials all of them (100%) believed that the materials were interesting in terms of the lay-out and topics and the materials were able to motivate the students to learn listening. 8195
