Administrative tests for grades 2-4 “Planet of Knowledge”.
4th grade - 1st - 2nd quarter - 58 - 77 words, 3rd - 4th quarter - 76 - 93 words.
Dictation texts are selected of average difficulty with the expectation that all students can complete them (the number of spelling patterns studied is 60% of the total number of all dictation words). Words for unstudied rules are either not included or are put on the board. It is not advisable to include words in the dictation, the spelling of which is at the stage of study. The topic of the text should be close and interesting to children. Sentences should be simple in structure, varied in purpose and consist of 2-8 words with the inclusion of syntactic categories that are studied in elementary school. To check the performance of grammatical analysis, tests are used, the content of which includes no more than 2 types of grammatical analysis. Good performing students are offered an additional task of increased difficulty.
Ratings:
“5” - for work in which there are no errors.
“4” - for work in which 1-2 errors were made.
“3” - for work in which 3-5 errors were made.
“2” - for work in which more than 5 errors were made.
Accounting for errors in dictation:
1. a repeated error in the same word is counted as 1 error (for example, a student wrote the letter “i” instead of “e” twice in the word “sand”).
2. Errors on the same rule made in different words are counted as two errors (for example, a student wrote the letter “t” instead of “d” in the word “horse” and the letter “s” instead of “z” in the word “cart” "
An error is considered:
1. Violation of spelling rules when writing words, including errors in omission, rearrangement, replacement and insertion of extra letters in words;
2. Incorrect spelling of words that are not regulated by the rules, the circle of which is outlined by the program of each class (words with unchecked spellings);
3. Lack of punctuation marks currently studied in accordance with the program; the absence of a period at the end of a sentence is not considered an error if the next sentence is written with a capital letter.
Note:
When assessing a test, the correctness of its implementation is taken into account first of all. Corrections made by the student do not affect the grade. Only the last spelling is taken into account. The design of the work should also not affect the assessment, because in this case the person checking the work may not be objective enough. When assessing work, the teacher takes calligraphy skill into account. When evaluating work, not only the number, but also the nature of errors is taken into account.
