Dear Colleagues I was wondering whether anyone still remembers the criteria we used to have for composition in the5 point bagrut tests before we had scales and then rubrics. I remember vaguely that the required length was about 200 ? 230 words and that we used to deduct points if this requirement was not met. How many points??.I don't remember. I also remember that we took into consideration the following: (i) 5 p. - content (ii) 5 p. vocabulary (iii) 5 p. grammar (iv) 5 p. spelling. What was included in the content? Was it relevance, organization, format?? I am at a loss here. I think it was half a point for each mistake in (ii) (iii) and (iv). When we reached 5 points we used to stop counting. Please help me out here. I would appreciate it if you could provide me with a more accurate description these criteria. Wishing you all a lovely week Yours Irit I.
