Teachers/tutors must manage authenticity for any assessment from a public source, because students may have access to the assessment schedule or student exemplar material. This assessment resource without modification may mean that students work is not authentic. The teacher may need to change the context or topic to be investigated, or change to a different text to read or perform. Page 1 of 13 New Zealand Qualifications Authority 2013

2 Assessor guidelines NZQA Support Material Level 3 Unit standard 17361, version 4 Read recounts (ESOL) 4 Credits This unit standard has one element: Element 1: Read two complete texts from different contexts. Each text must be at least 500 words in length. Conditions All assessment activities must be conducted in English, which must not be the candidate s first language. Candidate s responses may be oral or written. Written responses need not be grammatically correct, but errors must not interfere with meaning. Candidates may use an English dictionary but not an electronic translator. Assistance may be given to understand the requirements of the task. Learning contexts Candidates should be assessed after they are familiar with topics. By reading on topics with a similar text type and structure candidates will become familiar with the text structure and language features of recount texts. The English Language Intensive Programme (ELIP) does not contain examples of recounts at this level. However, stage 2 has sample texts that provide guidance on suggested teaching components, strategies and language features of recounts: Captain James Cook a New Arrival. ELIP (9c) and personal recounts e.g. A field trip to Rotorua ELIP (9d). Notes for assessors It is important that candidates are familiar with the requirements of the performance criteria and the special notes. Each of the two texts should be assessed at a different time as part of a wider area of study. This assessment activity should follow class activities in which the candidates have had the opportunity to become familiar with the topic through a range of listening, speaking, reading and writing activities. The context and vocabulary should be familiar to the students. The question tasks should also be familiar to the candidates. This can be achieved by including similar question types in the formative work. Candidates should not have seen the text before the assessment activity. Refer to your institution s policies before offering further assessment opportunities. If resubmission takes place, the assessor should ensure that the correct answers are not inadvertently indicated when scripts are returned. For example, in a true / false or matching exercise, it would be inappropriate to indicate the correct answers on the candidate s script. Page 2 of 13 New Zealand Qualifications Authority 2013

3 Candidate instructions Level 3 Element 1: Task 1 Unit standard 17361, version 4 Read recounts (ESOL) 4 Credits Name: Date: Do this activity in class. You may ask the assessor to explain the instructions. You may use an English dictionary but not an electronic translator. Your spelling and grammar do not need to be perfect but your assessor needs to be able to understand what you mean. Candidate checklist In this assessment task you will need to show that you can do the following: Put the sequence of events in the text in the correct order. 1.1 Identify and describe key details about characters, setting and events in the text. 1.2 Identify and explain how important events in the text are linked. You will need to understand words and phrases used for: time relationships e.g. A few years ago, soon, since then, late in the afternoon cause and effect e.g. so, then, because of this Find examples of cohesive devices and explain their meaning. Cohesive devices could include: repetition of nouns e.g. mountain bikes, my bike, our bikes, the bike frame, we biked use of synonyms e.g. cycle, bike, ride, pedal pronoun reference e.g. they, it, them conjunctions e.g. however Give the meaning of important vocabulary from the text. 1.5 Page 3 of 13 New Zealand Qualifications Authority 2013

4 Reading text: Task 1 Level 3 Going Nowhere Slowly Unit standard 17361, version 4 Read recounts (ESOL) 4 Credits BY SIMON KENNETT A few years ago my older brother Paul bought one of the first mountain bikes in New Zealand. Soon my twin brother Jonathan and I had mountain bikes too. Since then, we three have ridden many places, but the best trip we ve done was the time we rode to nowhere. Slowly. In the middle of the night, at Ohakune Railway Station, we sleepily climbed off the train with our bikes and other gear. We fell asleep under a tree. Then a few hours later we rose early and by mid-day we had ridden to the start of the Mangapurua Track. Fifty years ago, this track was a road that led to farms in the Mangapurua Valley. It wasn t good farming country, so the people left, and the bush took over. But there is still a large bridge in the middle of the bush. Nowadays it s called the Bridge to Nowhere. In the hot afternoon, we biked into the valley. Whizzing down the track, Jonathan got his front wheel caught in a rut and crashed. The frame was so bent that the back wheel couldn t turn. No problem, said Paul, with a wide grin. While Jonathan gritted his teeth, Paul put the bike frame on the ground and jumped up and down on the bike. It worked in fact, the bike went better than before! The next day we set off early, but we had to ride slowly because of fallen branches, tricky stream crossings and the heat. As I rode along one cliff edge, my bike slipped off the narrow track and I fell. I climbed back up, shocked but glad to be alive. My bike was fine too. Late in the afternoon as we were weaving our way through thick bush, the Bridge to Nowhere suddenly appeared before us. We had seen photos of the bridge but it was still a real surprise. Imagine seeing a large concrete bridge in a remote valley far away from any roads! We cycled onto the bridge and rested there, just looking around us. Then we carefully rode down to the river. We were now about thirty kilometres upstream from Pipiriki, the nearest town, and we did not intend to go back the way we came. Instead we made ourselves a raft and some paddles. Page 4 of 13 New Zealand Qualifications Authority 2013

5 Soon after dawn the next day we tied the bikes onto the raft, got in and started floating down the river. It worked! A DOC jet boat came past and I asked, How long will it take us to get to Pipiriki? At that rate about three days, the ranger replied. After that, we all paddled very hard. In shallow parts we jumped out and pushed the raft. By ten p.m. it was dark, and there was still no sign of Pipiriki. We were all tired and worried and because of that we argued about the best way to get through the rapids. At last, after fourteen hours of rafting, we arrived at Pipiriki. Tired and hungry, we quickly made some soup and then fell asleep. The next day we had to cycle 130 kilometres to Marton to catch the train home and we only had one muesli bar left. We thought we would never get there in time because the lack of food and hilly roads slowed us down. Then a farmer gave us a lift and dropped us beside a shop with FOOD. Once we had eaten, the final part seemed much easier and we arrived at the railway station just in time. The Bridge to Nowhere had been a great trip, and it was good to rest on the train, thinking about the adventure we d just had. But on the way south, I gazed out of the window to the Ruahine mountain ranges. I wonder if it s possible to cycle across the Ruahines? I said aloud. Paul s eyes lit up, and he reached for the map. 652 words Text from Choices used by kind permission of the author. Page 5 of 13 New Zealand Qualifications Authority 2013
