Assessing Reading
Do each of the sample reading tests and as you do:
- write your answers in the spaces provided
- note down how difficult you think each task is as you finish it
- make notes on what you actually had to do in order to complete the task i.e. try to indentify what each task is testing
When you have finished all 5 tasks:
- rank them in order of difficulty: 1 = easiest to 5 = most difficult
- make notes as to why you have ranked them in that way i.e. what makes them eays, difficult etc.
