    Brainy klasa 5. Tests provides a comprehensive set of photocopiable testing material.

    All tests
    have been written both in A and B versions and they have been prepared in PDF format. The B
    version has the same type of exercises as the A version but the items are slightly different.

    The pack includes:

    - 40 Short Tests to be used after Lessons 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 in the Student’s Book,


    - 8 Unit Tests to be used after each unit in the Student’s Book,
    - 2 Progress Tests comprising the material from four units (units 1–4 and 5–8), which can
    be used as end-of-term tests,
    - a final test covering the material from the Student’s Book,
    - the audio recordings for all listening comprehension exercises as MP3 files,
    - all tests are accompanied by the Answer Key.

    Brainy klasa 5. Tests for dyslexic students

    The Unit Tests, Progress Tests and the Final Test are also available in C version. This version is
    on the same level as A and B, but was specially adapted and carefully designed for students with
    difficulties in reading and writing to help them perform the tasks more easily. Differences in the
    content and layout of the tests:

    - larger font size and interlinear spacing,


    - text in one column,
    - shorter texts in reading exercises,
    - the light grey background was added to reduce the contrast between text and paper,
    - open exercises have been changed into closed ones in order to minimize the risk of
    mistakes being made by students because of their reading and writing difficulties,

    Note that the same audio recording is used for A, B and C versions of the tests.

    It is important to remember that dyslexic students are not all the same. Some of them will be
    capable of completing A or B test versions but might need more help with the reading or writing
    tasks or you might need to give them more time to complete their tests.

    As students with dyslexia might suffer from low self-esteem and lack of motivation, the main task
    of the teacher should be to boost their confidence and positive attitude. This can be done by being
    optimistic, providing positive feedback and giving the opportunity to succeed.

    It is the teacher who knows students’ strengths and weaknesses and who can help them by
    individualizing and personalizing tasks. That is why along with the C version of the tests aimed
    for students with learning difficulties, Brainy klasa 5. also offers some practical tips for teachers
    how to help such students (to be found in Teaching Notes) and Extra support worksheets which
    are a part of Teacher’s Resource File (available online).
