This activity engages students in evaluating authors’ purpose. Students sort passages into three categories of author’s purpose: persuade, inform, and entertain.
LanguageScreen is an early language assessment developed by the University of Oxford that measures Expressive Vocabulary, Listening Comprehension, Receptive Vocabulary, and Sentence Repetition.
This resource requires the following modification to explicitly target listening comprehension: shift the burden of decoding/encoding onto the educator (i.e., the educator should read/write instead of the student(s)).
