4. Overview of TASKS Task 1 in all modules is the conversation. This task is intended as an ice-breaker to help the student feel comfortable in the one-on-one interview situation. As well as providing a context for answering all subsequent questions, it provides an opportunity to assess the student’s speaking skills. It is not essential to administer this task first, but it is preferable. Task 2 and Task 4 in Modules 1, 2 and 3 focus on different aspects of hearing sounds in words It is essential that tasks 2 and 4 tasks are separated by Task 3 (students may become confused between the instructions for each of these Task 3 is reading Task 5 Spelling Task 6 Listen and retell, comprehension Task 7 writing The writing task in each of the modules must be administered after the preceding task in which the students hear and retell a story and answer comprehension questions. The writing task can be administered to small groups or the whole class after students have completed the preceding task.

Therefore: – 50% (or 15 students) are above the median. – 50% (or 15 students are below the median. – 50% (or 15 students) are inside the “box”. Half of these (7-8 students) are above the median and half (7-8 students) are below the median. – 10% (or 3 students) are at or below the 10 th percentile “whisker”. – 10% (or 3 students are at or above the 90 th percentile “whisker”. – 15% (or 4-5 students) are spread between the 25 th down to the 10 th percentile. – 15% (or 4-5 students) are spread between the 75 th up to the 90 th percentile. 15 students above median 15 students below median 7-8 spread above the median. 15 students inside the box. 7-8 bunched below the median. 3 students on or below the 10 th percentile. (Note, all we know is at least one student scored on the 10 th percentile.) 3 students on or above the 90 th percentile.
