<p>Post CLB 3 / Pre CLB 4 Winnipeg School Division Adult EAL Program </p><p>Essential Skills Assessment. Level: Post CLB 2 / Pre CLB 3</p><p>The package includes:</p><p>AN ASSESSMENT to be used as is or adapted. A SUMMARY PAGE for totalling test results and making notations</p><p>Notes: When should I administer the pre-assessment? The pre-assessment can be administered at the end of the school year or mid-stream. What should I do if the learners are nervous about test taking? Class participants do not have to be made aware that they are being assessed. In order to reduce stress levels and performance anxiety, tasks can be incorporated into regular class activities. Why do I need to assign scores? And do I have to give the scores to someone? The scoring system is optional. Each task has a place to score the task, and a summary page is included at the end of this package. Scoring is an option as a method of determining if progress has been made, and this information is helpful for report cards. What if the tasks on the assessment are not relevant to my curriculum? These assessment tasks are only suggestions. Teachers should adapt or change Essential Skill tasks to fit the needs of the learners. How many assessments are in this package?
