The assessment context is a prepared 'thank you' speech. The time limit is one minute and a content checklist is provided. Oral Language Assessment Guide C is suitable for this task.

Task: use a key to identify which major group 4 plants belong to. Assessment focus: using a key to classify plants.

Students read an analogue clock face and draw some times onto other clock faces.

Students read analogue clock faces, and carry out time calculations drawing the results onto other clock faces.

Students draw times onto analogue clock faces and interpret analogue times.

Students carry out time calculations and show digital times on analogue clock faces.

Students show a range of times on analogue and digital clocks.

Students calculate a finishing time from a given time, and show the analogue times for a range of activities.

Students need to complete a pictograph of the target monthly house sales. This includes constructing the key, drawing in an axis, adding a title, and presenting the data.

Task: Students classify each of six drawn whales as either toothed or baleen whales. They then divide each group further by using a key. Assessment focus: Interpreting representations.

Students compare drawings of a healthy and unhealthy plant and decide which quantitative and/or qualitative data distinguishes them. They draw conclusions from the data. This is a mathematics/science resource.

Students show, interpret, and do calculations on times in both analogue and digital forms.

Students answer two multichoice questions giving explanations for their choice and two short answer questions.

Task: Make careful observations of objects in a picture to assess the size of one of the objects.

Task: Process and interpret data in a table to identify the best paper to use for a game. Evaluate the reliability of the collected data. Assessment focus: using evidence to answer a question.

Students use a cross-section diagram of a canal to calculate area and volume.

Students use their knowledge of the trigonometric functions sine, cosine, and tangent to calculate the length of sides of sails in a diagram of a yacht.

Students write the simplest algebraic expressions for the lengths and area of parts of a composite shape, then solve these expressions using substitution. They then solve an equation that relates an algebraic expression to a given side length.
