I will put a grade 3 student paragraph about family below and I am asked to assess the strengths and weaknesses and outline at least one recommendation for improvement of the child’s writing proficiency. It was to be six-ten lines.
my family is a very big one. I live with my grampa cousins: my aunty help me to put on my uniform in the morning. they help me with my Home work and to rend my book.
Strengths: The student shows an understanding of their family structure and relationships. They are able to use key family members and activities to describe their family life.
Weaknesses: The paragraph lacks proper punctuation and capitalization, making it difficult to read. The student could also benefit from expanding on their ideas and providing more detail about each family member's role.
Recommendation for improvement: Encourage the student to work on their grammar and sentence structure by practicing writing complete sentences with correct punctuation and capitalization. Additionally, they could add more specific details about each family member and their interactions to make the paragraph more engaging and informative.
