Cayman Islands Writing Exemplar

Level 2b

Assessment Commentary:

AF1: 

Ideas & Voice

 – Write imaginative, interesting, and thoughtful texts

• 

The author provides four ideas related to the event of going to the beach. The author is beginning to provide 

some elaboration for a few of his/her details (e.g., “After school I asked my dad if I could go to the beach. He 

said yes so off we went to the beach”). The opening and details of the text answer the “who,” “where,” “what,” 

and “when” questions; however, details to answer “why” are not provided. 

•  The author has yet to find a unique writer’s voice.
