  2. Situación • La señora Melanson will play the role of a Spanish speaking girl, who you must pretend is your age, and whom you do not yet know. You’ll need to greet me, introduce yourself, and find out who I am, respond appropriately to the introduction, tell me how you speak Spanish and find out if I speak English. You will need to tell me as much as possible about yourself and find out as much as possible about me, such as age, place of origin, how each of us is feeling, how things are going, etc. ) At the end of our conversation, you will have to express an appropriate farewell and wish me a nice day.

  3. Some suggestions • In order to demonstrate how much you know without my assistance, it would be a good idea to tell about yourself first and then ask questions about me. If you ask me the question first, you will have had the chance to hear my answer, as a model for your response to my question back to you. By talking about yourself first, you show me that you can make statements and ask questions! • The conversation should follow a logical pattern, but you don’t have to say everything in a specific order.
