Feedback

Next Steps

You communicated your understanding well.   Some of your ideas were difficult to understand.   You used many English expressions. You need to use the French expressions we practice in class.   You did not use the word wall, anchor chart or examples to help you write words and expressions correctly.   You did not share a minimum of five clothing suggestions.   Overall, you were very successful at communicating your ideas in a clear way.

Next time, read the success criteria carefully.  You may want a friend to read over your work just to make sure you’ve included all that you need.   Next time, use available resources to help you write expressions and vocabulary words correctly.   Participate daily in class to improve your confidence when writing.   Continue to participate in class activities! It shows in your ability to communicate with others through writing!   Ask for clarification if you don’t understand the task before you hand in your work.
