Assessing Primary Languages (book & Cd)

The Primary Languages Assessment Criteria provides teachers with a clearly laid out framework for assessing all aspects of the Programme of Study. Classroom teachers and subject learners will find it invaluable, particularly with deciding what 'substantial progress' actually looks like. the framework breaks down the Programme of Study into smaller areas and cross-references these across four stages, making it easy to assess pupil progress throughout Key Stage 2. For each area and stage activities are suggested, making it easy to implement assessment. The resource also contains a large number of creative and adaptable ready-to-use activities. The framework has been tried and tested in a wide range of schools, so teachjers can be surethat it will provide a rigorous tool which they can use for planning.
