Γεια σας! Welcome to the last lesson of semester 1!
VCE
Congratulations on completing units 1/3! The time has come to begin preparing
for the exams in October and November.
I would suggest the following for exam preparation:
- Ideal Complete 1 past exam per fortnight (2.5 hours).
- Good Complete a listening, reading and essay component of an exam per
fortnight (70 minutes).
- Okay Complete a listening, reading or writing task every week, rotating
weekly. Otherwise, you can focus on your weakest skill (20 - 40 minutes).
My advice is to be strict with suggested times. I am very happy to mark your
essays as you write them, please send them through to me. You have a few weeks
over the holidays to make a good start with some exams.
I have made this post about SAC 3, which will be
outcome 2. Please read this information carefully so you can prepare. This
should overlap with your exam preparation as well, since the tasks will be
listening and reading comprehension.
For this week, I would like us to make a start on exam preparation together. We
will work through the practice exam given in workset
15 from the VSL distance material.
- Listening Comprehension Complete the listening comprehension exercises
for texts 1, 2 and 3. You will need this audio
file, which
contains all of the audio segments.
- Reading Comprehension Complete the reading comprehension exercises for
texts 4 and 5.
- Writing Write one of the essays given in section 3.
- Reflection At the end of the workset is a reflection on the semester.
Please fill this out and send it through or email your responses to me
directly.
- Review Use the examiner’s report to mark the exam. Submit your essays at
this link and I will
mark them. From this I can give you a mark for the exam.
