  1. Analysis of the Bagrut ExamsJune 2010 Rina Akotonas,, Access Project Director Ahuva Dotan, English Counselor

  2. What did we choose to show? • The complexity of certain Reading Passages • The complexity of certain questions : • the way they are formulated, • the time the answers would take, • the intellectual effort they demand.

  3. MODULE C http://cms.education.gov.il/EducationCMS/Units/Mazkirut_Pedagogit/English/Bagrut/2010.htm Title : students may not guess the implications easily. First Sentence – the topic becomes familiar. Question 1. – TWO possible answers Question 2. – the key word is ‘persuaded’ Question 3 . Teach the students that there are two answers ,one will appear at the beginning of the paragraph and one at the end.

  4. Question 4 .ii and iv are confusing – the students tend to confuse how with why . Question 7. It demands rewriting skills – must has been replaced with should ( Is it the same ? ) Question 8. No paragraph is mentioned , so the students have to scan the questions and the text , which may waste a lot of time. Teach them to leave this kind of question for the end.

  5. MODULE D http://cms.education.gov.il/EducationCMS/Units/Mazkirut_Pedagogit/English/Bagrut/2010.htm Reading Passage Question 2.Demands rewriting . Teach that skill in class. Question 3.Demands drawing conclusions and complete a given sentence . Question 5. Demands working on two paragraphs’ main idea and writing.

  6. Writing A Description is the most difficult skill in writing. Most teachers deal with writing an informal letter and dislike dealing with a description. We feel the students didn’t do well in writing because they haven’t been trained on describing. Please refer to the booklet developed by Access Teachers on Amal Site.

  7. MODULE E http://cms.education.gov.il/NR/rdonlyres/74F75C10-3086-4030-9DBC-C5DCC66C294C/118203/D0161060610.pdf Reading Passage The title is familiar . Question 1. The word ‘explained ‘ needs to be clear. Question 6. Again the word ‘ understand ‘ may create a difficulty . Make sure the students control the key words in a question.

  8. Question 8 . ‘convenience ‘ is a tricky word here. Listening http://cms.education.gov.il/NR/rdonlyres/74F75C10-3086-4030-9DBC-C5DCC66C294C/118203/D0161060610.pdf
