The exam will cover units 1-12.
*The Receptive and Written Exam will cover units 1-12 and all information covered in class. This includes information that was not in your book (lectures, films, media clips). There will be specific sections on the exam. These sections are:
• Vocabulary section (mulitple choice)
• Grammar section (be able to identify specific grammar)(wh?, yes/no?, topics, modals, directional verbs, noun/verb pairs, verb pairs etc.) and answer specific questions
• Parameters section testing your vocab knowledge
• Structure, grammar, and culture (True & false, fill in, essay and multiple choice)
• Classifier section Be sure to be able to identify the concept of a classifier
Half of the exam will be live (instructor (s) will be signing. The other half will be written questions *For all units, be sure to read all grammar and culture notes in your book, review sentence structure and grammar, and review your vocabulary. I recommend studying with a group or a partner. You may want to give each other practice exams. What is listed below is important for the exam.
