*Answers are at the back of this booklet so you can self-mark your tests after you’ve finished. Then, identify areas you need to revisit to
gain more confidence.
Guidance for completing MFL assessments:
The work inside this assessment booklet contains enough work to cover (at least) the final 4 hours of lesson time you would have had in this half-term, it is therefore expected that you spend a similar amount of time completing the tasks. You can also complete some additional using your subject knowledge organiser to aid your preparation and/or green for growth. This work can be done in small chunks and/or with regular breaks.
The assessments are based on activities/tasks from your lessons. This means that there is nothing in your assessment that has not been covered in class. There are instructions provided in English for each task that you have to complete.
Below are some suggested timings for the assessments to help guide you in managing your work:
- Grammar test = 1 hour (including green for growth tasks after your test – mind maps
of key verb ending/opinions or using BBC Bitesize)
- Translation assessment = 1 hour (including marking & correcting any errors)
- Reading assessment = 1 hour (including reading time/making notes on your paper &
working out any unknown words/phrases)
- Writing assessment = 1 hour (including planning time & both tests)
All answers to the assessments are attached at the back of this booklet. This means that once you have completed your tests, you can mark these yourself to see where you have made good progress and which areas you may need to revise further.
Remember - you do not need to print out the work - you could just read it on screen and work in an exercise book or on lined paper. There are also printed copies of the booklets available to pick up from school if you cannot access them on a screen.
Please complete this work by the deadline set on ClassCharts by your teacher (this half-term ends on Friday 22nd May). After this, you can use your assessments to guide your revision/green for growth. For example, if you need to improve your grammatical knowledge of the present tense after your grammar test, you may want to create a mind map of verb endings or visit websites such as BBC Bitesize.
If you have any questions about the work, please don't hesitate to get in touch via the Contact page on the school website.

Writing - Test B
Total: 12 marks
The response below is an example that would be awarded 12 out of 12 marks.
Example response
1 No me gustan nada matemáticas porque la profesora es muy aburrida y a veces es bastante severa. En mi opinión las matemáticas son útiles pero difíciles también.
2 Mi día favorito es el viernes porque por la mañana estudiamos historia, y
me encanta la profesora. Por la tarde escuchamos música en el patio.
¡Qué guay! También, los viernes nunca estudiamos matemáticas.
3 Primero, juego el baloncesto con mis amigas en el patio y luego como un
bocadillo y bebo un refresco o un zumo en el comedor. Nunca leo mis
SMS porque es un poco aburrido, pero normalmente hablo con mis
amigos, porque es muy interesante.
4 Me encanta mi instituto porque es muy grande. Hay una biblioteca bastante moderna y me encanta leer libros todos los días. No hay piscina pero hay un campo de fútbol y normalmente juego con mis amigos. También, los profesores son muy bueno.
