Assessment Criteria

  • 1.1
    Respond to others in simple exchanges in everyday contexts.
  • 1.2
    Listen to others talk about familiar topics.
  • 1.3
    Speak clearly in discussion with others so that they can be heard and understood.
  • 1.4
    Use verbal and non- verbal conventions as appropriate when discussing familiar topics with others.

    LO1: Discussions should be with a minimum of one other person. Discussions should take place in familiar situations and be on familiar topics. Discussions should normally be approximately 2-3 minutes in length. Verbal conventions might include staying on topic, making a basic link between own contribution and what has already been said (e.g. I agree with x’). Non-verbal conventions might include nodding and shaking of head, smiling.
