Oral Component
date of exam: _____________
The oral component of your final exam will take place in French class over a few classes.
This part of the exam will test your oral knowledge of the daily questions. You will be called
up and tested in groups of two. Marks are individual however and you will not be able to help
each other out.
Choose the three questions you would like to be asked from the list of daily questions we
studied this year. Write the questions and answers in the spaces below so that you may
practice answering them.
On the day of the exam: When it is your group’s turn to present, bring this paper up with
you. Your partner will read the questions you’ve chosen to you and you will answer them.
Remember, you will not get to look at the answers! Next, I will ask you three questions
from the list. Since you do not know which three questions I will be asking, you will want to
be prepared by studying the answers to all the questions we’ve done this year. After
answering the last three questions it will be your turn to ask your partner the three
questions he/she has chosen. You will be marked on how well you ask and answer the
questions.
The three daily questions I have chosen are:
1) ____________________________________________________
____________________________________________________
2) ____________________________________________________
____________________________________________________
3) ____________________________________________________
____________________________________________________
The answers to these questions are:
