TESTING GRAMMAR

LIMITED RESPONSE (GROUP TESTING)

(Preposition of Place)


The type of grammar 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. Then he reads the sentences one by one and wants the learners to circle the right pictures according to sentences. The teacher shows the pictures of a cat and he says:

1) This is Molly. Circle the picture that she is in the box.












2) She is behind the box. Draw an ‘X’ on the picture.











3) Now, she is in front of the box. Draw a circle around her.











4) Circle the picture that Molly is under the box.











5) Oh, she is on the box. Draw an ‘X’ on the picture.
