Проведення контроля читання ( розуміння прочитаного) в 4-7 класах двічі на рік є вимогою програми вивчення англійської мови в початковій та в середній школі. Але як власне перевірити розуміння ? Переказ або відповіді на питання на рідній мові?—якось не солідно, все ж таки ми вчимо англійську. Відповіді на питання по англійські? –Знову проблема—адже на цьому рівні діти ще мають багато проблем з англійською граматикою. Тож ми отримуємо «червону» роботу з якої зрозуміло, шо власне текст ( сюжет і навіть деталі) дитина зрозуміла. Яку оцінку поставити, чи враховувати граматичні і лексичні помилки? Багато вчителів переймалися цією проблемою.
Вихід—завдання, які є серед завдань ЗНО, але яких , на жаль, майже немає в підручниках. Учням пропонуються декілька текстів ( наприклад описи різних людей), і питання—котрий з цих людей має це, цікавиться цим, і так далі. Учні, відповідаючи пишуть номер тексту ( опису), або ім'я людини. При цьому питання може стосуватися як однієї людини , так і всіх. Крім того, лексика в тексті і в питаннях відрізняється. Щоб відповісти правильно учні повинні дійсно зрозуміти текст. Тексти вони мають перед собою весь час і просто змушені перечитувати і думати. Такі завдання розвивають навички критичного мислення.
Завдання, які пропонуються, я використовувала на уроках саме для вказаного рівня.
