Assessment in the Young Learner Classroom
Assessment in the Young Learner classroom is useful for a number of reasons. Firstly, it is useful for the
learners as it helps students to become aware of what they are good at and what they need to improve.
Secondly, it is useful for teachers who need to be able to monitor their own performance and plan future
work in such a way as to meet children’s needs. Lastly, it satisfies a natural desire on the part of parents
and schools that learning has taken place. However, it is important that assessment is used as a tool to
motivate these young learners, and it should be used in a way that encourages and maintains positive
attitudes towards learning English.
One way of achieving this is through formative assessment, that is, child friendly, usually informal classroom
based assessment which mostly involves observing normal classroom activity. This involves teachers
watching children while they work and deciding if they understand instructions, if they are following the
story, if they are trying to use English, how good their pronunciation is, etc.
To help teachers in this task, Start! provides a Formative Assessment Grid, which can be used by the teacher
during classes or at the end of a unit of work to informally assess each individual learner’s language skills.
You can find the grid on page 109. In addition, each unit of the Student’s Book contains a section entitled
Checkpoint, where students can revise some of the structures and vocabulary presented in the unit and
assess themselves. It is important to involve the children in their own assessment as it gives them an
insight into the criteria and gives them a sense of their own role in assessment.
However, we also recognise that teachers may be asked to give information to school authorities on
how a student has progressed during a period of study. This summative assessment may be based on
the information the teacher has collected during formative assessment throughout the year or on the
results of class tests. For this reason, Start! provides teachers with photocopiable unit Assessment Files for
summative assessment, which can be found on pages 18 to 92. Answer keys for the Assessment Files and
a photocopiable Record Sheet to register the results are provided on pages 110 to 112.

Beauty and the Beast
Make a mini-book.
Cut.
The Beast let Beauty visit her father, but she had to be back in eight days. Her father
was sick, so she took care of him. But two months had passed.
At first, Beauty was afraid, but the Beast was very kind and did everything to make
her happy, and finally she grew very fond of him.
The monster said he could have the rose if he gave his daughter to be his bride.
Eight days later, he came to the merchant’s house to claim Beauty for his wife.
Beauty returned to the castle and found the Beast lying in the garden. She started
to cry, and when her tears fell on the Beast’s face, he transformed into a handsome
prince.
One hot summer’s day, a merchant was riding past a castle and saw a beautiful
garden, full of roses. He picked a purple rose for his daughter Beauty, but then a
scary monster appeared.
The Beast explained a witch had put a spell on him. They got married one beautiful
sunny summer’s day and they lived happily ever after.
