Finally, the assessment tools provide insight into the pupils’ affective needs and selfconcept. If a pupil’s self-assessments are particularly low or if s/he indicates noenjoyment in participating in class activities, this should be taken very seriously andaddressed. Opportunities for showing the pupil his/her strengths and providingencouragement and praise should be created by:•••calling on the pupil when s/he raises his/her hand to volunteer or offer aresponse.praising the pupil for his/her effort, willingness, response, etc. during classactivities.having a dialogue during the Pupil-Teacher Conference.g. Recommendations for Report CardsWhen writing comments on report cards, the teacher should remember that progress isindividual and therefore not everyone will learn the same things or to the same degreeas others. More important is that the acquisition process is moving forward and thepupil develops a positive attitude toward himself as a learner, as well as towards English.Specific Recommendations:1. Comments should be descriptive and verbal (no marks) emphasizing what thepupil can do in the language, as well as the things s/he likes doing and activitiess/he participates in happily and regularly.2. Comments should emphasize the pupil’s willingness to use new words andexpressions rather than accuracy.19.
