Today in
class we did an individual suggestion for an exam for 4th of ESO. It
should consist of 10 tasks and it has to follow a special orden. The order is
Listening, Vocabulary, Gramar, Reading, Writing.
We had a level
of difficulty from 1 to 3, 1 being the lowest level. I chose for my exam level
2.
At the beginning for example I chose an exercise to use the Past Simple,
Past Perfect and Past Continuous. The exercise consisted in a mix of all this
three tenses but after consulting with Iñaki, it turned out to be to difficult.
In the end I changed the exercise and I had to raise the level to 3. I would
like to show you the suggestion of my exam.
