Formative assessment

Formative assessment shall help to promote learning and develop competence in the subject. The pupils demonstrate and develop competence in Norwegian in Years 1 and 2 when they explore and use the language in play and interaction and in discussing perceptions on texts. They also demonstrate and develop competence when they combine letter sounds into words when reading and writing.

The teacher shall facilitate for pupil participation and stimulate the desire to learn by allowing the pupils to engage in movement, play, using their senses and having a sense of wonder. The teacher shall also facilitate for the pupils to develop their oral and written speech by experimenting on their own and being creative. The teacher and the pupils shall engage in dialogue on the pupils’ development in Norwegian. With the competence the pupils have demonstrated as the starting point, they shall be given the opportunity to express what they believe they have achieved and how they have improved their skills. The teacher shall provide guidance on further learning and adapt the teaching to enable the pupils to use the guidance provided to develop their reading, writing and oral skills.
