Writing Proficiency Assessment – Semester 2

 

Teacher’s Administration of the Writing Proficiency Assessment

 

            Teachers are required to administer this writing proficiency assessment during the second semester.  The test administration date is flexible as long as it occurs during the fourth quarter.  A grade for this assessment must be evident in the teacher’s grade book or his/her computer printout and valued as 10% of the Semester 2 Foreign Language average.  Refer to the IG PRO instructions.  Teachers should use the scoring sheet provided for each student tested to ensure objectivity.  Student answer sheets and scoring sheets must be sent to the Foreign Language Specialist at the Central Office by the end of the semester.
