What happened

Technique reading of test #6 (resit of the 12-mark language and 16-mark comparing questions from this morning, same sources, 2 Oct 18:40): handed in by her at 19 of 45 min (guide 40), 0 blank of 2, 7/28 against 0/28. Minutes: 3 on the 12-marker (guide 15), 16 on the 16-marker (guide 25) — the largest question got the most time. The target, a quotation in every answer, was met (1 and 2 quotations; morning 0 and 0) although she could not say it back in three attempts before Start. The paper's own printed checks (three quotations; two from each source) were not met. The sitting followed a 30-minute warm-up that rehearsed each answer type once, about 2 h 20 min earlier, and a conversation with her parent about what the questions ask.

Planned next

Next paper: prime it by doing the countable behaviour once in a warm-up beforehand (three quotations on a short text), not by a target she says back — say-back failed three times on 2 Oct yet the rehearsed behaviour appeared. Record quotations per question, minutes per question against marks, and the hand-in minute. The language answer stopped at one quotation in 3 of 15 minutes: the target for the next paper is three quotations in any language answer before moving on.
