Before we go any further with the news report, take a few minutes to look at how they are marked. The people who mark the test give you two marks. The first is a mark for your command of writing conventions (spelling, using capital letters properly, punctuation). Click Here to see the actual chart that will be used to mark your handling of writing conventions on the news report. Notice that the best you can score here is 40.
The second mark is what EQAO calls "topic development." This is a mark for the strength of your news report as a whole. Read the scoring guide by clicking here. Notice that the best mark here is a 60. Read the descriptions of a 0 and a 10 to get an idea of what NOT to do. Read the language describing a 50 and a 60 in order to get an idea of what TO do.
Mrs. Martin and I would like you to do one more News Report... but this one we won't finish with until you have scored at least a 30 for writing conventions and a 40 or 50 for topic development.
