This year, you should work on:

One of your tests will consist in listening to a 1'30 audio / video and show you have understood it.
- your language skills (vocab and grammar -> check the 3rd and 4th tab above).
- your argumentative skills (you should be able to debate on any issue -> give arguments and examples to justify your opinion, anticipate counter-arguments, be convincing etc.)
In your writing exams, you will be given essay questions / you will be asked to give your opinion on controversial issues and justify it.
- your writing skills (you should master any type of writing, its layout or format and its expected content, be it a letter, an email, a diary, a blog, a dialogue, a news article or a speech).
- your speaking and interaction skills.
Next year, you will have to speak about some unknown documents connected to one of the 8 notions you have studied in 1ère and terminale + present the work you have done in class on this notion.
