Continue the story. 20 The event described should happen immediately after the extract and should be about Barney. Content, purpose and audience. (Wa) 8 Text structure and organisation.

0844/02 Cambridge Primary Checkpoint – Mark Scheme October 2019 © UCLES 2019 Page 9 of 1 0 Content, purpose and audience (Wa) 8 marks Text stru cture and organisation (Wt) 7 marks Content is relevant and developed with imaginative detail using a variety of techniques, e.g. imagery and figurative language. Features of the genre, if required, are clearly established. Uses adventurous and pr ecise vocabulary. Characterisation is shown through actions and reactions during the story. A clear, consistent relationship between writer and reader is established and controlled. Narrative viewpoint is clear, with the style established to engage the reader’s interest throughout. 7–8 Clear structure with well -organised material within paragraphs. Paragraphs are used to structure the narrative e.g. there is an appropriate build up and resolution of the main event, as a refinement of previous box. Chronological or logical links help the development of ideas. Cohesion within and between paragraphs is achieved using devices such as connectives. 6–7 Relevant content with some detail developed using deliberate choices of vocabulary for t he task. Main features of the genre are evident. Characters are well described with actions linked to key events. A clear relationship between writer and reader is established in parts of the story, which engages the reader. Straightforward viewpoint, with a generally appropriate and consistent style. 5–6 Paragraphs are used to help structure the narrative, e.g. signal a change in time, place and / or focus on a different character or event , where the main idea is usually supported by following sentences. Logical sequence with evident but not consistent attempts to link ideas with fitting openings and closings, i.e. has to be linked to the stimulus . 4–5 Content is straightforward with an appropriate balance, e.g. speech, action and description. Vocabulary is simple, with some choices to create interest. At least one event is described, i.e. something happens in the pit involving Barney and, usually, the unknown character . General features of the genre, if required, are shown. Some attempt to engage the reader. 3–4 Paragraphs / sections are evident with related points grouped together or linked by time sequence. Some attempt to sequence relevant ideas logically in relation to the stimulus. Also, introduction / closing statement may be evident. Movement between paragraphs or sections may be disjointed. 2–3 Ideas are mostly relevant to the narrative with a simple plot, i.e. involves Barney immediately after he fell . Vocabulary is simple and relevant. NB: allow 1 st or 3 rd person as long as viewpoint consistent (see Box 5/6). 1–2 Some basic sequencing with story ideas evident. 1 No credit able response 0 No creditable response 0

0844/02 Cambridge Primary Checkpoint – Mark Scheme October 2019 © UCLES 2019 Page 10 of 1 0 Sentence structure and punctuation (Wp) 7 marks Spelling (W s) 3 marks Use of complex sentences to provide clarity and emphasis, e.g. by positioning of clauses , using a wide range of connectives (although, meanwhile), varying word order or detailed expansion of phrases . Grammar is almost always accurate throughout the text. Punctuation is used accurately to demarcate sentences and for speech – errors may occur where structures are ambitious . Commas are always used in lists and usually to mark clauses. 6–7 Some complex sentences are used to create effect, such as using expanded phrase s to develop ideas (e.g. noun, adverbial, adjectival, and verb phrases ), or a range of connectives (e.g. if, so, because, then). Grammar in complex sentences is generally correct in terms of tense and verb form. End of sentence punctuation is nearly always accurate throughout the text. Capitalisation is always correct. Speech marks may be used around words spoken but other speech punctuation may not be accurate. Commas are always used in lists and occasionally to mark clauses. 4-5 Spelling is generally correct throughout. (There may be occasional phonetically plausible attempts at complex words.) Correct spelling of most, not all, polysyllabic words e.g. appear, information, making, possible, probably, wondering, search. 3 A mix of simple and compound sentences. Compound sentences use simple connectives to join clauses, e.g. and, but. Generally correct grammar, i.e. subject and verb generally agree. Past and present tense of verbs generally consistent . Demarcation of straightforward sentences is usually correct. There may be evidence of comma splicing. NB. If punctuation is totally lacking and other descriptors met the n give lower mark here. 2–3 Spelling of common words, including polysyllabic and compound words, is generally accurate, e.g. friend, another, around, because, anything, something. Spelling of plurals and some past and present words is generally accurate, e.g. boxes, clothes, told, stopped, wanted. 2 Some simple sentence structures are used successfully. Some variation in sentence openings. Some correct use of punctuation, such as full stops and capital letters. NB: where more ambitious structures are used with NO simple sentences, begin marking at Box 2 provided 2 nd descriptor about variation in sentence openings has been met . Also: learners should gain marks for good English with punctuation errors rather than lose marks for essentially good English. 1 Spelling of high frequency words is generally correct, e.g. their / there, when, were, what, some, etc . 1 No creditable response 0 No creditable response 0
