Formal Oral Presentation (Integrated Skills)

Description
The second part of the speaking section will be an example of the interpretive and presentational mode. It integrates three skills: reading, listening, and speaking. Students need to give an oral presentation in a formal or academic setting. They will be asked to read one document and listen to a recording, after which they will have two minutes to prepare for the presentation and two minutes to answer the question related to the sources. Students will be encouraged to make reference to and cite all sources.

What's Different?/Changes in Speaking
(See Task D materials below)
  • Speaking will be based on reading and listening.
  • Students will demonstrate formal presentational speaking skills.
  • Students will synthesize information presented in written and oral stimuli.
Evidence
The AP Spanish Language student can:
  • Describe, narrate, and present information and/or persuasive arguments on general topics with grammatical control and good pronunciation in an oral presentation of two or three minutes.
  • Use information from sources provided to present a synthesis and express an opinion.
  • Recognize cultural elements implicit in oral and written texts.
  • Interpret linguistic cues to infer social relationships.
  • Identify and summarize main points and important details and make appropriate inferences and predictions from a written text, such as a newspaper or magazine article or a contemporary literary excerpt.
  • Identify and summarize the main points and significant details and make appropriate inferences and predictions from a spoken source, such as a broadcast news report or a lecture, on an academic or cultural topic related to the Spanish-speaking world.
  • Use language that is semantically and grammatically accurate according to a given context.
