About Testing

Every third lesson of the week some of you will be tested on the words studied so far because it's good for you and us to know if  you are on track. You won't be graded on this, but your teacher makes notes of your progress.

At the end of each unit you will do a test on all the items that you have worked on. This test will include some idiom exercises, some grammar and maybe even a listening, reading or writing exercise. Make sure you understand all the grammar that is in the unit. Of course, you can always ask your teacher in one of the final lessons.

If necessary, you can do some extra practice using the exercises on our own website:

WEBSITE ENGELS

Click "website sectie Engels" and choose "brugklas"

Select "oefeningen grammatica" or "extra oefeningen"

All in all you will do 8 tests on all the units that we cover this year. The grades on these so-called "repetities" will be entered in Magister and take "weging" 1 in the first period and "weging" 2 in the other periods.

Throughout the year you will also do a number of reading tests. The grades on these tests will take "weging" 3.

The tests are done, either during the lesson, or during the so-called "centraal toetsuur".
