Part 2. Bandscaling

• Max has been assigned band scale level 2 (Early Years, Speaking). Use the evidence-based on your transcript, the provided teacher classroom observations of Max, and the ESL Bandscale document (pink stripy doc) to set out eight short points that justifiesMax at a level 2. Set out 4 points that show evidence for level 2. Set out 2 points that show why Max is not at pre-level 2 and set out 2 points to show why Max is not at level 3.
• In the box below provide a short paragraph (200 words) that gives the reasons for your decisions about why this student is definitely at level 2. You might like to engage with other literature in this section to support your argument.

• Use the table below. In the first column list the grammar language points you will need to specifically teach for students at level 2 (these are from the ESLATS doc). In the second column list all the examples of the grammar teaching points from the Sticky Jam text.
