NAPLAN 2011

With all that's going on at the moment, it's hard to think about school, which starts again in a week and a bit.

This means...it's time to plan for NAPLAN 2011! This year, the big change is that the writing task will require students to write a persuasive text, rather than a narrative as in previous years.

The sample task provided on the NAPLAN website looks more specifically like an argumentative-type task, and chooses the topic for the students. Whether this will be case in the real thing is not confirmed.

I'm off to read the marking guide!
