TESTING VOCABULARY

LIMITED RESPONSE (GROUP TESTING)

The type of vocabulary testing activity below is “Limited Response” which is done with a group of young learners. The teacher hands out copied version of the activity to each learner in the class. He shows pictures and says, “Draw a circle around the train.” Then he asks three questions one by one for only very short answers; “Is the train blue?”, “Is the train yellow?” and “What colour is the train?” The whole class answers at the same time; “No”, “No” and “Green”. Lastly, the teacher says, showing the space under the picture, “Give a name to your train.” And the learners are expected to write any name they want. The teacher asks the similar questions below for each mean of transport and the learners do the same things.

“Is the train blue?” (NO)
