A good class isn’t a military regiment marching to the same beat, but an orchestra working on the same symphony.<\/em>
\nThe now famous quote by the French writer Daniel Pennac does not only refer to the complexity of going to school and the variety of approaches pupils take, but also the path to follow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Pennac suggests working through competences, in a personalised way, as is proposed in the Personalised Tests series, which contains specific material for assessing primary school pupils, amongst which, tests on main subject content and tests for assessing competences applied to every-day real-life contexts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

THE THREE LEVELS OF TEST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Each test, comprising a double page spread, is offered at three levels: basic test, facilitated test and simplified test<\/strong>, which are differentiated by a different icon on the test.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

COMPETENCE ASSESSMENT<\/p>\n

Each book also has competence assessment tests based on real-life tasks. The tests can be done individually or in pairs, in line with the cooperative learning methodology.<\/p>\n

Each real-life test, given on three pages, comprises initial self-assessment of the pupil’s emotional state and final self-assessment according to their success in the test, alongside the teacher’s assessment.<\/p>\n

Here are the real-life tasks on which the competence assessment tests contained in the four books are based on:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
