Interpretive Reading: Haitian Creole

Read the letter below; then answer the three questions that follow.

Chè Paran ak Swanyan yo,

Se yon plezi pou anonse ke nan prentan sa a, n ap konstwi yon jaden lekòl sou teren lekòl nou yo. Lè nou genyen yon jaden nan lekòl la sa pral ankouraje devlopman konpetans pou rezoud pwoblèm ak konpetans pou panse kritik. Li pral anrichi eksperyans monn reyèl elèv yo tou. Anplis de aktivite klas yo avèk jaden an, yo pral ankouraje elèv yo tou pou patisipe nan aktivite jadinaj aprè lekòl yo pou yo ka aprann sou fason pou pran swen yon jaden ak fason pou pwodwi pwòp legim yo.

Mwen vle asire w ke plantasyon pral kontinye fè pati kou syans yo nan menm fason li te ye nan lòt ane yo. Sepandan, ane sa a, elèv yo pral genyen yon chans pou obsève sik plantasyon adisyonèl yo nan pwòp jaden reyèl nou yo nan lekòl la.

Yon jadinye pwofesyonèl nan kominote nou an te fè bay tèt yo kòm volontè pou ede pwofesè ak elèv yo nan pwojè sa a. Anplis, anpil paran, swanyan, pwofesè, ak manm kominotè yo te kontribye nan fè pwojè sa a vin yon reyalite. Nou rekonesans anpil pou travay di tout moun. Nan pwen sa a, n ap resevwa don semans, tè, oswa materyèl pou fè jadinan tankou gan, zouti, oswa awozwa. Tanpri vizite sit entènèt lekòl la pou jwenn plis enfòmasyon sou nouvo pwojè sa a, enfòmasyon sou fason pou fè don, oswa fason pou kontribye nan pwojè a nan lòt fason.

Jan sa toujou fèt, pa ezite kontakte m si ou genyen nenpòt kesyon oswa enkyetid.

Sensèman,

Laura Wang
Direktè

Correct Response: C. This item requires candidates to analyze the communicative strategies and the social and cultural contexts of a text to determine an assumption, an intent, a perspective, or a point of view in the text, including how the author's point of view or purpose shapes the content and style of a text. The principal announces that a professional is volunteering their time and expertise to make the project a reality. The principal then thanks the people who supported the project and names their roles in relation to the school and to students (e.g., caregivers, community members): "Anplis, anpil paran, swanyan, pwofesè, ak manm kominotè yo te kontribye nan fè pwojè sa a vin yon reyalite. Nou rekonesans anpil pou travay di tout moun."

2. Selon direktè lekòl la, jaden lekòl la se yon pwojè favorab prensipalman paske li pral:

  1. bay aksè pou modifikasyon nan kou syans yo.
  2. sipòte devlopman konpetans akademik elèv la.
  3. ankouraje fanmi yo pou patisipe nan aktivite lekòl yo.
  4. bay legim pou kominote lekòl la.

Correct Response: B. This item requires candidates to analyze the structure of an argument, the validity of reasoning, and the sufficiency and reliability of evidence presented in support of an argument in a text. The principal's letter states that class activities related to the garden will promote skills associated with academic success, such as problem solving and critical thinking. The letter also states that the garden-related activities will build on the hands-on experiences that students have engaged in during science classes in previous years.

3. Selon direktè lekòlla, pwochen etap nan pwojè sa a se pou:

  1. deplase plant yo deyò saldeklas syans lan.
  2. jwenn nouvo volontè pou ede pwofesè yo.
  3. enskri elèv yo pou fè jadinaj aprè lekòl la.
  4. kolekte materyèl pou antretyen nan jaden.

Correct Response: D. This item requires candidates to identify explicit and relevant information (e.g., main idea, sequence of steps, stated cause and effect, significant social or cultural details) in a text. The principal's letter emphasizes the work that has already been done by supporters to make the project a reality and announces that a professional gardener has volunteered to help create the school garden. The letter states that the next step in the project is gathering materials: "Nan pwen sa a, n ap resevwa don semans, tè, oswa materyèl pou fè jadinan tankou gan, zouti, oswa awozwa."
