Strategies | SECTION II: Free Response The Free Response section of the AP* Spanish Language and Culture Exam focuses on your Interpersonal and Presentational Communication Skills. Use the following strategies. 1. Understand the format The Free Response section represents 50% of your overall grade on the exam. You will encounter 4 sections during approximately 85 minutes:
2. Pay attention to the context and register Before responding, make sure you understand the context and decide which linguistic register to use.
Email Replies require formal language. Persuasive Essays require formal language and have a set structure, with a thesis statement or introduction, a development or argument, and
a conclusion. Conversations vary according to the person you are addressing (e.g. classmate or teacher, known or unknown person, young person or
adult). Oral presentations use formal language, as they require you to present information as if to a group.
3. Understand the sources Read the sources provided carefully. Understand their purpose and think about how you will use them in your responses. Make connections between sources if the activity has more than one. Refer to the sources properly in your writing or presentation. 4. Plan ahead While a free response activity will often require some ability to improvise, in all instances, you will need to plan your responses and presentations.
Make outlines when appropriate. Think about what you know about the activity topic. Consider the time allotted for your response.
5. Use your prior knowledge Always look for opportunities to use knowledge you have acquired about the Spanishspeaking world or about the topic in general. 6. Stay on topic Make sure that your written or oral responses and your conversational exchanges address the topic. As you look for opportunities to use your prior knowledge, be careful not to veer from the conversational path or to introduce topics not included in the prompt; this may be interpreted as an incorrect understanding of the activity. 7. Focus on the language Remember: the point of these activities is to demonstrate your knowledge and command of the Spanish language. Focus on the most appropriate language to express your ideas and on using correct grammar structures. 8. Vary your vocabulary Always strive to use a variety of phrases, words, and expressions. Use different sentence structures and idiomatic expressions, even if they are equivalent or synonymous. Employing a broad and diverse vocabulary is likely to improve your results. 9. Revise and correct Always revise and edit your writing for grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Always correct any errors you notice you have made when speaking by going back and rephrasing your response. 10. Be clear and precise Make sure you write in complete sentences and paragraphs that express your ideas clearly. Speak in an audible voice and enunciate your words carefully.

Strategies | PART A: Email Reply You can improve your performance on the exam by using the following strategies.
1. Understand the format As the directions state: "You will write a reply to an email message. You have 15 minutes to read the message and write your reply." Your reply should contain at least 125–150 words in order to answer the email effectively. 2. Budget your time wisely. Make sure you leave yourself enough time to compose a comprehensive reply. 3. Use the formal register The directions explicitly state that your reply should use a formal form of address. Be sure to write your email using the Usted form and use appropriately formal expressions for your greeting and your closing. 4. Determine the task As you read the email, identify the questions you are being asked and underline them. As you formulate your reply, make sure you reread the questions to see that you've covered everything. 5. Mark up the page. Avoid having to reread parts of the email: underline or circle key words or sections that prompt you for information you need to answer or provide, or for which you need to ask for more details. This helps conserve time and guides your thought process. 6. Respond to the questions Focus your reply on responding to the questions you are being asked. Make sure your answers are complete and comprehensible. 7. Request more details It is a requirement of this format that you request more details about something mentioned in the message. Remember to engage with the email by asking for more details and eliciting further information about something mentioned. 8. Pay attention to cultural references Include cultural references mentioned in the email in your reply, as appropriate. 9. Vary your vocabulary Try not to repeat words or expressions; look for appropriate synonyms and alternate ways of saying things to prove you have a broad vocabulary. Avoid overlyused words. 10. Use complex language Raise your level of communication by using a variety of structures. Include compound sentences and complex structures rather than sticking to basic language. 11. Watch your verb tenses Be consistent in your use of verb tenses. You will want to show a range of verb tenses if appropriate, but be careful to maintain consistency. If you are writing in the present tense, stay in the present tense. Alternating between past and present tenses can make your writing confusing. 12. Use what you know Incorporate what you know —historical and/or cultural information—if it applies in order to demonstrate your knowledge. 13. Be accurate Check your writing for grammar, punctuation, spelling, and accentuation errors. You will be graded on both your ideas and the quality of your expression. 14. Make sure your message is complete Be sure to include all the elements requested in the directions: "Your reply should include a greeting and a closing and should respond to all the questions and requests in the message. In your reply, you should also ask for more details about something mentioned in the message." 15. Check your work Once you finish writing, reread your response to make sure you have answered all the questions and asked for further information. Pay attention to the following:
Eliminate repetition. Be concise. Eliminate weak verbs. Is your reasoning logical? Does your writing flow well? Have you used appropriate transitions? Is your email clear and cohesive?
16. Memorize the direction lines.

Strategies | PART D: Cultural Comparison presentational speaking You can improve your performance on the exam by using the following strategies.
1. Understand the format You will be required to give an oral presentation. In your presentation, you will make a cultural comparison between your own community and a specific area of the Spanishspeaking world. 2. Pace yourself You will have 4 minutes to prepare the presentation and 2 minutes to record it. Establish a process for completing the task within the time allotted by doing practice activities, and stick to your process when you take the exam. 3. Know the objectives You are expected to plan and produce a presentation in which you demonstrate an understanding of target culture communities. You are expected to compare your observations of those communities with your own experiences. 4. Use the prompt to formulate a response The prompt will describe the topic and give you a general framework for your presentation. Make use of the language provided in the prompt as you determine how to respond. 5. Jot down notes Once you understand the prompt, jot down notes about what you will say about the target culture and your own. Quickly writing down your ideas will help you focus, make connections, and call forth new ideas. You may want to make lists or use a Venn diagram to keep your ideas organized. 6. Use your personal knowledge Think about what you know about the topic from personal experience.
Determine how the topic relates to your own cultural experience. Write down a few ideas. Determine with which area (country, region) of the Spanishspeaking world you have the greatest familiarity and how the
topic relates to it. Write down a few notes.
7. Use your acquired knowledge You may want to refer to knowledge you have acquired through readings, films and videos, lectures, social networks, the Internet, and other resources.
You do not need to cite specific sources, but the information you draw upon must be accurate. Use knowledge of which you are certain and can recall correctly.
8. Choose your format Your presentation should have a logical and coherent structure. Decide which of the following formats you will use:
Pointbypoint comparison : You discuss one similarity and/or difference at a time and bring in examples from both the target culture and your own for each one.
Subjectbysubject comparison : You speak at length about one cultural experience first, using supporting details from that culture only, then you speak at length about the other cultural experience.
9. Make an outline Outline your introduction, examples, and conclusion. 10. Be specific Demonstrate knowledge of the area of the Spanishspeaking world on which you plan to focus by providing details .
Think about geographic, historical, artistic, or political aspects of your culture that relate to the topic. Write down illustrative examples.
Think about geographic, historical, artistic, or political aspects of the Spanishspeaking world that relate to the topic. Write down illustrative examples.
11. Compare and contrast Remember: the point of the presentation is to make a cultural comparison. Connect your ideas and your examples across the two cultures.
Look for common aspects between the two cultures. Write them down. Look for differences between the two cultures. Write them down.
6
12. Be concise A cultural comparison should demonstrate your knowledge of the Spanishspeaking world, but does not require you to provide a great variety of information.
From your outline, eliminate information you cannot connect clearly across cultures. It is better to focus on fewer but clearly compared or contrasted aspects of the two cultures than to provide extra information
for each independently.
13. Speak coherently Use transitional phrases and cohesive devices to add fluency to your presentation.
Think ahead to the comparison or contrasting vocabulary you will use as you present the information. Words and phrases like De otro lado , Por otra parte , También , Al contrario , Al igual que , etc., will help you connect the
information across cultures.
14. Vary your vocabulary Use a variety of words and expressions when presenting information to your class. 15. Raise your level of communication
Concentrate on using rich vocabulary and culturally appropriate idiomatic expressions. Avoid overuse of elementary, common vocabulary. "Reach outside the box" to impress the listener or scorer. Use a variety of structures, including compound sentences , rather than sticking to only safe elementary structures.
16. Correct your errors If you notice you have made an error as you speak, correct it. 17. Use a loud and clear voice Make sure to always enunciate clearly, speak in an audible voice, and pronounce each word as accurately as possible. 18. Memorize the direction lines.

Strategies | PART C: Conversation You can improve your performance on the exam by using the following strategies. 1. Understand the format You will be asked to participate in a conversation. You will read a brief introduction and an outline of the conversation. You will then have 20 seconds to record your part in each conversational exchange.
2. Get ready to speak You will have 1 minute to preview the conversation. You will then have:
5 opportunities to speak. You must respond to what the other person says.
20 seconds per response. You must fill the whole 20 seconds.
3. Read the Tema curricular and the introduction Make sure you have a clear understanding of who will be talking and what the conversation will be about.
Underline or circle key words and jot down ideas to help guide and focus your thought process once the conversation begins.
Pay attention to cultural references and respond or comment as appropriate.
4. Preview the outline The outline will give you specific details about what your role in the conversation will be. As you read the prompts, start to visualize the conversation.
Where and when is the conversation taking place?
With whom are you speaking, and what is your relationship to him or her?
5. Use prior knowledge Your prior knowledge of the topic and of any vocabulary associated with it will help you speak with greater fluidity and accuracy. 6. Determine the appropriate register The introductory text will provide the key to which register you should use. Make sure you understand the context of the conversation and with whom you will be talking.
A conversation with a teacher, an unknown adult, or an authority figure will require a more formal register.
A conversation with a friend, classmate, or someone your own age allows for a more informal register.
7. Learn the prompts Become familiar with prompting verbs so you can respond as directed. Common terms are:
9
8. Listen carefully As the conversation begins, listen carefully to each prompt, statement, or question. Even if you don't understand every word, make sure you get the general idea so you can formulate appropriate responses. 9. Speak for at least 20 seconds Make sure to fill the time allotted for each one of your exchanges.
Using "filler" phrases and words is normal in conversation in any language.
You can repeat or rephrase something you have said before, if appropriate.
In order to clarify your understanding, you can paraphrase, or repeat in different words, what the other person has said or asked.
10. Respond to every prompt Always say something when prompted. Do not allow long pauses in your responses or leave any "blanks." 11. Learn how to stall Make sure to memorize language to indicate you are thinking, such as Déjeme pensarlo un momento , or other language used for stalling. 12. Answer completely Respond as fully as possible in accordance with the prompt provided. Make sure to answer the question and to comment or react to what is said. 13.

14. Correct your errors If you notice you have made an error as you speak, correct it by rephrasing your response. 15. Clarify your meaning In a conversation, it is acceptable to repeat an idea in order to clarify its meaning. If you are trying to communicate a complex idea, you can express it more than once in different ways to ensure understanding. 16. Focus on language The purpose of this activity is to demonstrate your knowledge and command of the language, not your knowledge of a specific topic.
In your responses, you are free to tell fictional stories or state as factual events that never happened. Be creative.
Make sure that, whatever the content of your reply, you use proper grammar, an appropriate register, and adequate modes of address.
17. Stay on topic Do not push the conversation in a different direction or introduce unprompted topics. Staying on topic will demonstrate your understanding. 18. Use a loud and clear voice The point of participating in a conversation is to be heard and understood. Make sure to always enunciate clearly and to speak in an audible voice. 19. Practice recording yourself Don't be caught offguard. Use activities in this book to practice recording your part in the conversations. 20. Memorize the direction lines.

Relying on what you know will help you understand the sources and build a coherent essay. 5. Identify each source's point of view on the essay topic
An informational article or audio presentation may have a more objective tone. Look for data and examples that support a point of view.
In an opinion piece, look for arguments with which you may agree or disagree.
In a table or graph, look for data, trends over time, and comparisons between different categories represented (e.g. countries, age groups, genders)
6. Take notes As you read and listen, underline and take notes on information that may provide evidence or examples to support your writing. You will have access to the print sources and your notes during the entire 40minute writing period. Plan your writing 7.

Support your thesis with evidence from the sources, adding your own analysis. 8. Write an outline A persuasive essay will require a thesis, an argument, and a conclusion. The outline should include these three elements.
Your thesis should take a position on the topic.
Your argument should incorporate information you have gathered from the sources. You will have time to edit and refine as you write.
Your conclusion should restate your initial thesis in light of the data and evidence you have presented.

10. Synthesize the sources Where appropriate, synthesize information and draw conclusions that incorporate multiple sources.
Compare and contrast the sources.
Find points of agreement between the sources.
Find evidence in one source that may support statements made in others.
Write 11. Write in complete paragraphs Paragraphs in a persuasive essay are not independent informational statements, but steps in the development of an argument towards the conclusion.
Use the first paragraph to state your viewpoint on the topic and your thesis.
Use 2–4 paragraphs to develop your argument in a logical and coherent manner. Each paragraph should build on previous information.
Use the last paragraph to summarize the topic and state your conclusion.
12. Refer to the sources Show understanding of the sources, but add your own perspective and use your own words.
Be discriminatory in which information you choose to cite; choose information that helps support your viewpoint.
Pick out interesting details. Avoid vague or general references.
If you cite a source directly, keep it brief and use quotation marks « ».
13. Use your own words A persuasive essay is a formal piece of writing. Make sure that you use the appropriate register and vocabulary. 14.

CONSEJOS PARA UN AÑO EXITOSO (DE SUS COMPAÑEROS DE AP DEL AÑO PASADO)
CONSEJOS: • Leer/escuchar cosas afuera de clase. • Siempre hacer tarea y estudiar para los exámenes. • La clase no es tan difícil si hacen la tarea, toman los exámenes seriamente, y participan mucho para practicar. • Don't worry too much it's actually fun when you just apply yourself to it. • Sí necesitas ayuda, hablará con señora o ir al ILC para aprender más. • Mi consejo que yo recomiendo es que los estudiantes no se preocupen porque los maestros preparan mucho para el examen de AP. • Los estudiantes futuros deben hacer todo de su tarea y participar en clase porque es todo que necesitan hacer para recibir un A y un 5. • Vocabulario es muy útil y es bueno estudiar las palabras que no son en las listas también. • Pienso que es importante a usar español en su vida como escuchar o leer o hablar porque estas destrezas son esenciales en el examen de AP. Escuchar y cantarlas canciones españoles son prácticos buenos a hacer. • Siempre tratar participar. No es solamente para los puntos y una nota pero para subir sus niveles de hablar y un avance de vocabulario. • My advice is to speak Spanish as often as they can. Even if they're not good at speaking at the beginning of the year, they can become completely fluent if they constantly practice. Listen to Spanish radio, read Spanish books, do anything to get yourself immersed in the Spanish language because it'll really help you in the long run.
