5 points - The English Bagrutconsists of 4 parts: • Module E – unseen (70p) + listening comprehension (30p). This is done at the end of YOD • Module F – a literature exam which includes: 2 poems, 3 short stories and 1 play. The literary pieces are studied over a period of 2 years. This is done in the summer YA. • Module G – unseen (60p) + writing a composition (40p). This is done in the winter YA. • Oral Bagrut – project presentation (60%) + personal interview (40%). This is done also at the end of YA. • The average of all 4 parts is your final grade in English.
What you should do in order to do well on the new Module F • Buy a plastic folder (קלסר חצי שקוף) with 6 dividers – each one for 1 literary piece. • Keep ALL the material related to the literary pieces in the portfolio. Your portfolios will be checked by your English teacher. This is part of תלמידאות • Keep all the material from YOD until you take the Bagrut exam in YA. • You will be tested on each literary piece during the 2 following years. • Before the Bagrut exam you will have a Matkonet exam which will include ALL the literary pieces you have studied.
Your Final Grade – ציון הגשה • is an average of ALL the grades in the two-year period – YOD and YA. • There is a Matkonet exam BEFORE the Bagrut. • If you miss a summative assessment (an exam on 1-2 pieces) without a justified reason,it will affect your final grade. • Make up (מועד ב') tests are done according to the school policy. • If you are not satisfied with your Bagrut grade , you can take Moed B in the summer YA & YB.
The process of learning any literary piece includes: • pre reading activity • vocabulary and basic understanding questions • analysis & interpretation questions + literary terms • HOTS – higher order thinking skills • Bridging Text and Context - background information related to the literary piece • post reading activity • Reflection • Summative assessment – test on 1-2 pieces
Basic Requirements • This new literature module (F) demands a lot of work and organization. • It also requires the ability to express yourselves well in English, since most of the questions are open-ended. • students must reach an average of 70 by the end of the first semester in YOD in order to stay in 5 points. • Your parents will be notified in the next parents evening if you do not follow those requirements. • The programs for 4 and 5 points are different. • It is nearly impossible to complete the material on your own.
We wish you a lot of luck! • We hope you will enjoy the new literature program. • Remember! The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary. • The English Staff and Coordinators,Monica Levy & Pirchy Dayan
