新足迹网友玫瑰研究了NAPLAN的作文要求,从要求出发简单说明如何帮助孩子写作。
昨天拿到小朋友的NAPLAN成绩单,惊讶于详细/八股的评分标准,回家琢磨了一下,原来网上有那么多资源,对如何提高孩子写作“成绩”一筹莫展的家长可以围观一下,楼主英语平平,只是现学现卖而已。
声明:只讨论应试作文,不讨论写作的文学水平,很多精彩文章是拿不到考试高分的,同理考试高分文章也不一定都是精品。
先列一下议论文(Persuasive writing)的硬指标:
Marking criterion | Description of persuasive writing marking criterion |
Audience | The writer’s capacity to orient, engage and persuade the reader 总结一下就是作品对读者的吸引力和影响力 |
Text structure | The organisation of the structural components of a persuasive text (introduction, body and conclusion) into an appropriate and effective text structure 文章基本架构——所谓的八股 |
Ideas | The selection, relevance and elaboration of ideas for a persuasive argument 作者的观点——观点是否清晰,至于正确与否不是评判的标准 |
Persuasive devices | The use of a range of persuasive devices to enhance the writer’s position and persuade the reader 作者的论据——论据是否充足 |
Vocabulary | The range and precision of contextually appropriate language choices 作者的词汇及运用 |
Cohesion | The control of multiple threads and relationships across the text, achieved through the use of grammatical elements (referring words, text connectives, conjunctions) and lexical elements (substitutions, repetitions, word associations) 连词,代词,引用,省略号等的运用——文章是否流畅 |
Paragraphing | The segmenting of text into paragraphs that assists the reader to follow the line of argument 文章的起承转合,段落安排 |
Sentence structure | The production of grammatically correct, structurally sound and meaningful sentences 语法和句子的运用是否准确 |
Punctuation | The use of correct and appropriate punctuation to aid the reading of the text 标点符号是否准确 |
Spelling | The accuracy of spelling and the difficulty of the words used 单词的难度,以及拼写是否准确 |
可以通过精读优秀作品来提高的指标:
注意0%不是说没有人达到,而是达到的人太少,四舍五入掉了。
