Slide 5 - Tekstslide

Headwords
An Intermediate book in one series may be Elementary in another and Advanced in yet another. The ERF believes there is too much variability in these labels and we recommend teachers use headword counts which tend to be accurately determine levels.



Notes
1. A headword is similar to a dictionary entry where a group
    of words share the same basic meaning. E.g. helps, helping, helpful, helpless.

2. The Scale is not supposed to be used literally. It is a rough guide to categorizing books by difficulty.
    As not all books at a given level by a publisher are equally difficult, some individual titles may need to go
    up or down as necessary and these books will need relabeling.

3. Grammatical difficulty was not used in informing the levels for several reasons

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

What if you don't know some words?
Strategie / tips:
  1. Read to the end of the sentence for more clues, then go back.
  2. Go back and reread what you've already read to see if that helps.
  3. Leave out the word and keep on reading.
  4. Are there any smaller words in your word?
    incomprehensible
    comprehend = begrijpen
    comprehensible = begrijpelijk

  5. Break up the word and sound it out.
    reread = re + read
    reinforcements = re + in + force + ments

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

Excerpt from 'Red Rising' by Pierce Brown:
"Looking around, it's easy to see that Roque was right. There weren't many tough fights. This was forced natural selection. Bottom of the heap getting slaughtered by the top. Hardly anyone is severely injured except a couple of small lowDrafts. Natural selection sometimes has its surprises.
   Cassius's fight was easy, he says. He did it right and fair and quick. Crushed the windpipe with a bladejab ten seconds into squaring up. Caught his fingers oddly, though. Prime. I've made a corpse of the best killer's brother. Dread creeps into me to make a home.
   Cassius grows quieter when Fitchner saunters in and order us to the table. One by one, the fifty seats fill. And bit by bit, his face darkens as each chance for Julian to join the table disappears. When the last seat fills, he does not move. It is a cold anger that radiates. Not hot as I thought it would be."
