What follows are examples of questions that your teacher/marker may ask you. They may ask you questions that you do not see on this outline. You need to be comfortable with the vocabulary, grammar structures and ideas presented in the unit before you complete the Conversation Assessment. You will have to call your teacher or marker to show that you know how to answer these questions after completing Unit 2.  Be ready!

Remember, once you complete the Conversation Assessment, your teacher/marker will provide you with the password to complete the Unit Exam. You will need to do the Conversation Assessment over the phone after Unit 2; you don't need to submit anything on this page.
