3ºESO AB SPEAKING TEST



The school year is getting to its end and it's time to prove how much you've learnt.

As part of your speaking marks for this final term you must have a conversation with your teacher. I know!! Oral exams are always irritating and stressful for you. So to make things easier, I am sharing with you some of the questions in the exam in the following document. Remember that they refer to contents studied this year, so you are expected to produce the language learnt orally.

The oral exams will take place on June 4th and June 11th.
