Scoring. 10 marks: 4 matching, 4 gaps, 2 written sentence(s) worth 2 each. The bonus item is not scored. It uses a word never taught, from the same family as the taught ones. A child who gets it has learned the CATEGORY; a child who does not has learned the twenty-four words, which is still a pass — but it tells you which one you are looking at, and no other item on this paper can.
