Progress test
Progress tests are conducted after Lesson 5. They allow teachers to monitor student understanding of the concepts taught over the past five lessons and to identify where reteaching is needed. The Teaching Guide contains the progress test script and there is a handout for students to write their answers on.
End-of-unit assessment
Week 10 is the end-of-unit assessment, which has the same variety of question formats as the progress tests (e.g. multiple choice, filling in blanks/punctuation, editing, constructing, and improving sentences) to assess student mastery of sentence level writing development from the unit. The Teaching Guide contains the testing questions and the end-of-unit assessment handout for students to write their answers on.
