What’s Next? Identifying Targets for this Student:

 

• 

AF 1 – Adding more detail by elaborating on each event will help this author progress through Level 2. The  

author should include at least one sentence of detail following the sentence that introduces the event (e.g., 

“First I got to go on a huge and fast plane. I sat beside mommy and we watched a movie. Then I went  

shopping...”). 

• 

AF 5 – The author should be encouraged to combine sentences by using connectives such as “and,” “but,”  

and “so” to compose compound sentences. The author should also experiment with starting his/her sentences 

in a few different ways. A greater amount of detailed elaboration will also result in higher achievement.
