Ex. Ex.

This is an examination example:

For this examination, the students will each create a story and read this story for the examiners to hear. The students will randomly receive a story synopsis and the vocabulary words they must include in their stories. Students will have ten minutes to prepare a story, and have two minutes to read the story to the examiner. The student must include all the vocabulary words listed in their story synopsis. After the student completes a story, there will be a quick quiz.

#1 A story about a very busy day at school.

Lesson Words
Vowel Sounds: Pair (noun), Peer (noun) Poor (preposition)
Diphthongs: While (preposition), File (noun)
Consonant Clusters: Stress (noun), These (article), Rush (Verb)
Tet Vocabulary: Compulsory (adjective)
Polysyllabic: Inconsequential (adjective) /ˌɪnkɒnsɪˈkwɛnʃəl/ ; not important

Example:
Last week, I was very busy with school work. All my studies and activities were giving me a lot of STRESS. WHILE I enjoy working alone, many teachers like to assign PAIR work. THESE COMPULSORY assignments with a PEER are difficult for me. Last week, my partner was very POOR and did not own a USB drive. We could not share the FILE. I had to RUSH and research by myself. Although this is INCONSEQUENTIAL today, I felt very tired on that day.
