What proficiency level do you think best describes this student? Why? Be prepared to state your evidence! Although it is easy for Jennifer’s teacher and her peers to understand her, it is clear that she is not a native speaker of English. She mixes up words like in and on, and usually pronounces V’s like B’s. Her vocabulary is not quite on grade-level, but it has improved a lot this year - she no longer gropes for words while speaking. Her teacher hopes that by the end of the year, Jennifer will be using more transition words in her speaking and writing. 10 Leticia M. Trower Gaston County Schools Used with permission
