FRIDAY'S QUIZ- A REMINDER...

Italiano 1: Your verb quiz on Friday will be 25 fill-in-the-blank questions, just like the warm-ups from this week. Some will be in Italian and you will have to fill in the English answer, and vice-versa. The BEST way to study for this quiz is to create flashcards!

Italiano 2: Your review quiz is 24 questions long and will cover the following topics: Conoscere vs. Sapere, Imperfetto vs. Passato Prossimo, Skit vocab, and Pronomi indiretti. Question types include multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, and translating sentences. The BEST way to study for this quiz is to review your notes and the exercises we did for each concept- I am pulling test questions straight from these sources!

GOOD LUCK!!!
