Form 2a Examination 2 1 Form 2a Examination 2 Child’s Name _____________________________________________________ Age: ________ years, _________ months Directions: There is to be no review of material before exams. Give the student one prompt at a time and allow him/her to complete it before giving the next question. Responses may be written by the child, given orally, or a combination of both, according to the child’s preference. Parents should transcribe all oral answers in a Word document, giving plenty of time for the child to think. (If you do not type or would prefer to hand-write your child’s response, please scan those for us.) Do not interrupt the child or ask prompting questions as a general rule. If the parent must encourage a child who is having difficulty answering, please include what is said by the parent in brackets in the transcription. For responses that do not lend themselves to being transcribed, the parent may either take observational notes or insert a picture, audio file, or video link (if you are so inclined and tech-savvy--these are not required). Parents should assess their own students’ work using the descriptors provided before sending the exam to [email protected].
