various locations on the scene picture, e.g. ‘Put the robot on the red chair.’
2. The examiner asks questions about two of the people or things in the scene picture,
e.g. ‘What’s this?’ (Answer: banana) ‘What colour is it?’ (Answer: yellow). The
examiner also asks the child to describe an object from the scene, e.g. ‘Tell me about
this box.’

(orange) juice) and ‘What do you drink for lunch?’

the birds.'
2. The examiner asks the candidate some questions about the scene picture, e.g. ‘What’s
this?’ (Answer: a fish) ‘What colour is it?’ (Answer: pink). The examiner also asks the
