Propósito: The purpose of "prácticas para pruebas" is to give the students the opportunity to review the material covered for the quiz using many of the formats of evaluation used in quizzes, tests and exams throughout the semester. Drilling structures in different ways is the key to success in a language class. Knowledge of the structure, understanding of how it works in a given foreign language, memorization of the structure and application of it in appropriate situations are the necessary steps students have to deal with gradually. Hence, the visual and audio learner, after going through a series of assignments such as the following one will be able to communicate fairly well in Spanish by the end of the first semester of instruction.
