Procedure (52-60 minutes)
Ask students: -Which part of the test was the most difficult? -Which section felt easier than you expected? -Did you run out of time? Students briefly discuss in pairs first (2-3 minutes), then share with the class.
The teacher gives general feedback without mentioning individual names or scores. Highlight: -One or two things the group did well -One or two areas that need improvement Write common problem areas on the board (no specific answers yet).
Read sentences from the test, especially the ones that caused problems. Write them on the board (with errors included if possible). Students find the mistake Correct it Explain WHY it's wrong Discuss as a class. Push them to use language like: "It should be..." "Because after _____ , we use______" "This is wrong because..."
Take 2 correct but basic sentences from the test and ask: "How can we make this sentence better?" Example: -Basic: I went to the clinic. -Upgraded: I went to the clinic because I had an appointment. Students suggest improvements (adding detail, connectors, reason, contrast).
