PRESENTAZIONE
INVALSI AL TOP! • INGLESE è un quaderno operativo per prepararsi a sostenere la Prova Nazionale di Inglese per la classe V della scuola primaria. Il volume è suddiviso in quattro parti: la prima, Reading, presenta una serie di prove di comprensione di un testo scritto; la seconda, Listening, mira alla verifica della comprensione nell’ascolto di un brano; la terza, Simulazioni, riporta alcuni test strutturati secondo lo svolgimento della prova ufficiale; la quarta, Prove ufficiali, contiene la riproduzione integrale delle prove già assegnate.
Le 6 esercitazioni della seconda parte sono mirate alla preparazione per la prova di listening attraverso l’ascolto di brani in inglese della durata massima di 2 minuti. Alle successive domande di comprensione (da un minimo di 3 a un massimo di 8) l’allievo deve rispondere sul proprio volume cartaceo.
Le 6 esercitazioni della prima parte consentono di esercitarsi per la prova di reading attraverso la lettura di un brano della lunghezza massima di 110 parole al quale sono associate domande di comprensione (da un minimo di 3 a un massimo di 8).
Le verifiche riguardano tutte le tipologia di domande che possono essere effettivamente sottoposte in sede d’esame: a risposta multipla (multiple choice), a risposta aperta breve ( short answer questions ), a risposta vero/falso/non dato (true/false/not given), a collegamento (multiple matching).
Queste prime due parti del libro sono uno strumento di esercitazione per gli studenti e di verifica per i docenti e possono essere utilizzate fin dall’inizio dell’anno scolastico.
La terza parte del volume, Simulazioni, il modello della Prova Nazionale. Si tratta di simulazioni integrali della prova d’esame che propongono nel complesso 8 tasks così suddivisi:
Le simulazioni sono strutturate secondo i tempi specifici indicati dall’INVALSI.
I testi della sezione reading e i brani della sezione listening sono riconducibili ai descrittori di lettura e di ascolto del QCER per il livello A1 con contenuti familiari per allievi di V primaria.
• i primi 4 tasks fanno riferimento alle attività di reading
• i secondi 4 tasks fanno riferimento alle attività di listening
La quarta parte riproduce le prove effettivamente svolte.
Le prime due parti del libro rappresentano una tappa di avvicinamento graduale all’esercitazione con la Prova Nazionale nella sua interezza. Esse consentono allo studente di acquisire familiarità con la parte di reading e con quella di listening in modo graduale. A conclusione di ciascuna prova, lo studente e il docente potranno registrare i risultati in modo da avere un quadro di insieme della preparazione raggiunta ed effettuare una prima valutazione delle competenze. In vista della data di svolgimento delle Prove Nazionali potrà essere utilizzata la parte di simulazioni per una verifica completa.
Materiale disponibile online
• Griglie di correzione alle esercitazioni proposte
• File mp3 dei brani della sezione listening
• File pdf delle simulazioni per consentirne la stampa
• Documenti INVALSI sulle modalità di svolgimento della prova

Hello! I’m Erin and I’m American. I am from the USA and I live in a small city called Savannah, in the state of Georgia. This is my family’s house. It is small but it has a big garden where we have vegetables and flowers. My birthday is on 30 June and I am 10. I’m very tall and I have short black hair and green eyes. I love pop music and my favourite group is Maroon 5. I go to public school which has a wonderful playground and a big library. At our school we do not need to wear a uniform so I usually wear jeans, a sweater and trainers. My favourite subject in school is music.

Hello! I’m Kara. On Saturdays I always go to the city pool. There is big pool and a small park with lots of trees. I like to ride my hoverboard there and swim! I usually meet my friends at the pool. We have fun and sometimes we play games together. I love to play Marco Polo! One person counts to 10 with his eyes shut. The person who counts is “it”. The others must be very quiet in the pool. The person finishes counting and jumps in the pool with their eyes closed. The person who is “it” says “Marco” and the other players say “Polo” and tries to find the other players in the water. The first person touched is “it” for the next round.
