Bewertung mündlicher Sprachproduktion

Lieber Englischkurs,

Anfang Juli ist es soweit: Ihr werdet eure mündlichen Prüfungen zum Roman

"Looking for Alaska" ablegen.

Damit ihr euch bereits jetzt besser darauf einstellen könnt, was in der Prüfung von euch erwartet wird, sind hier die Bereiche, die wir beurteilen werden.

1. Aussprache und Intontation

2. Einsatz sprachlicher Mittel und Sprachrichtigkeit (Grammatik und Lexik, d.h. Wortgebrauch)

3. Strategie und Interaktion (wie gestaltet ihr eure Monologe und Dialoge, sind diese strukturiert, wie geht ihr miteinander im gemeinsamen Prüfungsteil um?)

4. Aufgabenerfüllung und Inhalt

Über die genauen Kriterien im Detail sprechen wir im Unterricht.
