Language Placement

SPEAKING: The Centre for Canadian Language Benchmarks has provided several exemplars for speaking (from the CLB Support Kit). The webpage contains a series of short videos that demonstrate students speaking at CLB 1-12.  It is also available in a PDF version.

From the Copian library, this document provides easy access to exemplars for writing. There are four samples for each benchmark, from CLB 1 - 12.  This is downloadable document is section 3 part 4 of the CLB Support Kit.
