Spanish 1
1st quarter Exams – 2009
What to study and how?
The exam will be 90 multiple choice questions, this is how the sections are broken down:
Translation, Fill in the blank, Logical or illogical, Question/answers, Accents, Subject pronouns (yo, tú, él, ella), Indefinite articles (un, una, unos, unas), True/false based on sentences with pictures, Numbers, Mucho(as), Verbs, and Reading.
The best way to review is to look over your vocabulary lists for Chapter 1 (p 45 in the textbook) , Chapter 2 (p. 73) and the numbers on the back of both. This will give you the vocabulary you need. Also look over ALL the workbook pages we have done so far (p 1 to 17). Read over the grammar boxes there and what the activities were like. Finally, use the game boards from Ch 1 and 2 to quiz yourself on your knowledge, remember the answers are on the back.
