Sixth Day of professional practice…


Today was the first day that I have applied oral tests for first and second graders. I have had always that doubt about how to apply test for kids that do not read and write.

This week is of English tests only and that is why I am only coming one day during the week. I think it was a good experience for me to learn how to apply this “special” test. It is not complicated, but you need to be sure of what you are evaluating. Sometimes what happened is that teachers present in class the topics in certain way, but by the time of the test they change the way. Students get confused during the test and that is why students obtain bad grades. It is important for us to take in to count that we need to maintain the same structure of our lessons in our tests.

One thing is absolutely true; make oral test is much more tiring for the teacher. Since you have to make it 127 times (in our case) while if you make a regular written test, you do not have to repeat it so many times.

I feel happy with the experience I had today with the tests…
