Justification:

Writing in A2 the students can describe in simple terms aspects of his/her

background, immediate environment and matters in areas of immediate need,
relate events from your past, including your weekend activities and interesting
stories, discuss your vacation plans and tell friends and colleagues about your
vacation afterwards.

This level in the exam evaluates the content, organization, and language. This
section offers to help you write short, simple texts, notes, and messages. Texts
include messages, forum posts, personal profiles, forms, and emails.

This test offers students to satisfy their needs based on the contents seen in the
level. Thanks to the available resources’ students can practice with activities, in
this activity an example of the postcard in which the students take as a reference
so you can make yours. The test will be administered in a place where students
have time and space to perform each established test, a comfortable place and
with all the necessary resources to complement their knowledge.

The exercise is coherent, it has clear instructions in which it mentions what to do

and does not need anything, it is fair because it is appropriate to the level and
content previously viewed.

The validity in this exercise shows that they are activities that the student can
implement and can carry out day by day in their routine since they are routine
things that they always do, when socializing, taking the phone, the computer, etc.
Test if the student will have the competence of the written exam developed for the
level.

In the same way, it has the authenticity that the previously applied test will help you
with your daily life, in understanding the language, the final result must faithfully
show the performance of the student when using the language in specific
situations.

The topics that are handled are associated with topics already seen by the student,
that is why we must obtain good results because they are already familiar and will
have greater interactivity.

This test is highly reliable for students of this level as previously mentioned, it
meets the qualities described as authenticity, validity, reliability, practicality and
authenticity. The written exam is one of the tests in which the student must be
reviewed, his way of writing, the structure, that it meets the requirements and that it
is understandable for the students.
