PARTS 6 + 7 from Sample Test

  Some NOTES on parts 6 and 7   

• Be careful about writing too much or too little. "How are you?" is not necessary to begin your email. 
• You will lose points if you do not include all 3 parts of the email or write about all three pictures for the story. 
• Proper nouns (names, days of the week, months, cities, etc.) and I MUST be capitalized: Saturday, February, Rome, I (NOT i ) 
• my friends and I   NOT   me and my friends   
• be careful to use the correct verb tense and use it correctly. 
• PUNCTUATION. Sentences end with a period ( . full stop) or an exclamation mark (!) Questions need a ?
• we HAVE a picnic or GO ON a picnic
• TIME: 6 o'clock /  6 p.m. / 4:30 / 4
• Use words you know how to spell correctly. Some common misspellings: which (not witch); together, with, sandwich, picnic
• MEET: We can meet at the station. (incontrare) BUT I am happy to meet you. (conoscere)
