Midterm Exam

Class:
I thought we had one more week before the midterm, but I was wrong: it is next week. Next week I will test you with transcriptions and sentence patterns. I will give you an extra week to study vocabulary.

So, here is the itinerary:


Next Week's Midterm:

--Transcription: Write down a sentence that I say out loud; answer questions about the sentence (e.g. "What does this word mean?")

--Sentence Patterns: You will write sentences using the patterns learned in class.
Example: I ask you to "Write a sentence with a list that does not have a conjunction." You might write, "He is kind, intelligent, honest."

In Two Weeks:
--Vocabulary:
Write down from memory 20-30 vocabulary words or vernacular expressions. Write down the definitions of each word or expression.
