Other Work Samples for:
Kendall has demonstrated a good understanding of the text type and is able to write a simple procedure without a scaffold. Verbs are used to represent actions in each step, and the steps are numbered and ordered chronologically. A title has been used and an illustration has been drawn to represent the end product. The directionality is correct and the letters have been accurately produced. Capital letters and a comma have been used appropriately but full stops have not been used when required. Phonemic awareness has been demonstrated and sight words have been used. To develop further, Kendall should include a list of materials and use full stops to end sentences. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing above the expected standard at the end of Kindergarten.
