Evaluation overview
Welcome to the evaluation section of Oxford Thinkers 2.
This section contains material that will help you to
evaluate what your students have learned.
It is divided into two parts:
• formative and summative evaluation
• self-evaluation and suggestions for using the
English Language Portfolio with Oxford Thinkers
Formative and summative evaluation
From the beginning of Primary education, evaluation
should be integrated into the teaching–learning
process, combining formative assessment with more
formal summative evaluation. A proper evaluation
requires observation and measuring tools, which
combine to give both information about the students
and an assessment of the evaluation process. As part
of this process, we need to take into consideration the
students’ own self-evaluation.
In terms of summative evaluation, there is an
extensive range of tests, along with answers,
transcripts and marking schemes. There are nine unit
tests, three end of term tests and one end of year test.
The tests are provided both as PDFs and as editable
Word® documents.
The extensive range of tests in Oxford Thinkers cover
the target language of the course and the types of
activities that the students usually do.
In addition, marking grids are provided so that you
may easily record test results and keep a record
of each student’s strengths and / or areas for
improvement throughout the year.
iGradebook
The iGradebook provided is an easy-to-use Excel®
spreadsheet, which allows you to transfer your
students’ marks from the Tests marking grids into a
useful digital format. The spreadsheet allows you
to not only quickly access each student’s individual
grades, but the helpful Class Overview sheet also
allows you to view your whole class’s marks at a
glance.
1 Oxford Thinkers 2
To use the iGradebook, simply follow these steps:
1 First, enter the names of all the students in your
class in the Student Name column on the Class
Overview sheet. Your students’ names will then
automatically appear in the other sheets in the
iGradebook.
2 Click on the Tests sheet and input the mark for each
student (maximum marks are always provided for
reference). The total mark and class averages will be
automatically generated.
3 Return to the Class Overview sheet, and you will be
able to view at a glance the whole class’s marks (as
well as automatically generated percentages) as
entered in each of the relevant sheets.
Self-evaluation
Self-evaluation is a key part of the learning process.
It is important that the students realize that when
they are evaluating themselves you are not testing
them; instead, self-evaluation should be viewed as a
key motivating factor, encouraging the students to
think about their learning and to take ownership of
their language learning. Lesson 10 of each Class Book
unit gently introduces the students to the concept of
self-evaluation. In these lessons, the students review
the unit and remember what they have learned. They
colour Norman with the colour that they think best
reflects their work throughout that unit. In this way,
they are able to keep a record of their own progress.
These can contribute to the creation of an ‘English
Portfolio’ by students, based on the guidelines of the
English Language Portfolio.
English Language Portfolio
As a method of self-evaluation and a source of
motivation for the students, we have included
several photocopiable pages for the development
of an Oxford Thinkers Portfolio, personalized for each
student.

 Portfolio overview

What is the English Language Portfolio? Vocabulary record

This is a way to keep a record of the experience of
learning a language. Each student has their own
Portfolio, which will accompany them throughout their
learning.
The Portfolio consists of three parts:
• The Language Passport, which offers a general
overview of the linguistic ability of each student in
one, or several, languages. It includes elements of self-
evaluation along with assessment by the teacher.
• The Linguistic Biography, which intends that the
student reflects on their own learning process, to
help them plan and evaluate their learning in the
future.
• The Oxford Thinkers Box, which contains pieces of
work that illustrate the achievements, ability and
experiences of the student, as reflected in the two
previous sections.
What is the Oxford Thinkers Portfolio?
The Oxford Thinkers Portfolio is an ‘English Portfolio’
that aims to familiarize the students with the notion
of the English Language Portfolio. It represents a
useful tool for teachers of subsequent levels as it
allows them to see what vocabulary and structures
the students have already learnt.
Oxford Thinkers 2 offers you the following
photocopiable materials for the English Portfolio.
‘I can …’ statements
These pages form part of the Linguistic Biography.
On the first page, the student writes the number of
the corresponding unit in the circle if they know how
to do what the phrase says. On the second page, the
student puts a ✓ in each box if they know how to do
what the phrase says.
These worksheets can form part of the Language
Passport or, if the students complete them as self-
evaluation, they could form part of the Linguistic
Biography. The students put a ✓ in the box by each
vocabulary item that they can understand, say and
read. They then write the word in the last box.
Course certificate
This can form part of the Language Passport.
Additional ideas
The students can organize their Portfolios into
sections, such as About me, My vocabulary, (Linguistic
Biography), My work in class and ‘I can …’ (Language
Passport). They can make an Oxford Thinkers Box
using a shoe box. They can write their name, the
name of their class and the name of their teacher on
a label and attach it to the top of the box. Encourage
the students to include in their box the pieces of work
of which they feel especially proud.
Encourage the students’ parents to take an interest
in the experiences of their children. They could
help them find English objects for their Portfolios
(Linguistic Biography) such as stamps and labels.
You could create an ‘English corner’ in your classroom
and encourage the students to bring in things related
to English-speaking countries.
