Work sample Italian Stage 1 Work sample: Document 6 Grades are allocated at the end of a unit or semester based on the rank order of students. Grades should not be allocated to individual assessments. Assessment type: Written communication Performance associated with Grade C, representing satisfactory achievement. Work sample summary The writer has produced an email which is relevant to the task – to communicate as much personal information as possible to a chosen correspondent. The writing gives evidence of understanding the question and provides relevant information on the topic. Ideas and information are appropriate. Stage 1 Grade descriptions Form and features of language Uses familiar vocabulary and sentence structures with some repetition and errors. Text types and linguistic resources Uses vocabulary and sentences structures that are often influenced by first language. Produces texts that sometimes adhere to text type. Structure and organisation of text Some use of paragraphs and connecting words to organise the text. Sentences are often repeated and sometimes incomplete. Word omission and incorrect syntax impede meaning. 2009/22373 PDF: 2009/23578 Grade evidence in work sample The writing demonstrates a satisfactory knowledge and understanding of vocabulary and grammatical concepts. There is evidence of some minor errors in choice of verb, use of tenses and conjugations e.g. ‘constare di’, fare i bicicletta’; ‘il mio padre’ and ‘Ciao, scrivere presto’, feature in writing. Common mistakes made are linked to use of first language e.g. ‘Qualche volta aiutare la mia mamma a suo lavoro’. The writing shows control of a limited range of linguistic resources and frequently used simple rehearsed sentences e.g. ‘Mia sorella Clare è brava a tennis’; ‘Spero che siamo amici per sempre’. The influence of English syntax/first language is also evident in the writing e.g. ‘Lei è due anni piu di me ed è anni dodici a scuola. The writing shows limited ability to organise information and ideas. The email lists the various hobbies of the writer in the second paragraph and then returns, as if in afterthought, to list further interests in paragraph five. Language is manipulated with limited degree of authenticity and creativity to persuade and convince the reader e.g. ‘Ciao, scrivere presto’. Information, ideas and/or opinions of the text relate too many of the main points in the stimulus email and therefore meet the requirements of the task.
