What sort of 'level' is this writing?

[Rosebud05]

No particular agenda here, but just curious as to what 'level' this snippet might be...

Goldelocs and the thre Bears
Ones upon a time agow there were three Bears living in a cotij there names were Farter bear Mummy bear and Babby Bear. One moning mummy Bear was making some poridj But she was very tiyed. So she desidid to go upsters they end.

TIA.

well it would have been my DS aged about 6 (early year 1) but having volunteered at school I would say there is a huge variety - some of his classmates were there in reception and I suspect some will be at that level in yr 2.

Or do you mean 2a etc

I would think early-middle of y2, so perhaps 2c?

Actually on reflection he wouldn't have used punctuation at 6 so maybe end yr 1

Looks like something my 6 year old would write - Year 1 she was 6 in May.

looks like y1 to me? 1B/A? difficult to say without seeing it on the page

Level 1.

Need to be longer and have more detail to get a level 2.

Yeah, agree on such a massive difference. My Dd age 5, almost finished reception would produce similar, but my DS (11) and at the end of year 6 would too.
One extreme to the other, really!

I thought the spelling, sentence construction and punctuation was good, but not much detail so it's a bit confusing to gauge.

Good story language, extended sentence by using the but, nice sentence construction and full stops and capital letters although some in the middle of the sentence. Some phones and key words spent correctly but not consistent. Would need to see more to give accurate level but defo ticking some criteria for level 1. Possibly 1B. What's handwriting like ?

Not phones?! Phonics!

Is level 1, year one?
So, how old is the child? 2 or 15 ?

Year 1? My reception DD could prob manage the spelling, but the punctuation and sentence structure is better than she manages...

Huge span of abilities at our school though so hard to say!

I would would say this was about a 1b.

Are capitals and full stops unusual in reception?

Yes mince year one in state school has range from W(a,b or c, c being lowest) which means 'working towards' level 1. We strive to get ours to a 1a by end of year one but you get a spread, typically wa up to 2c which is very good and above national expectation. Most kids achieve 1 b or 1a.

I would say a 1b, but I would want to see the writing and look at the letter formation/finger spacing/upper and lower case letters.

What year is the child?

I agree with letseatgrandma - 1B - spelling not consistent enough for 1A (and would need to be longer.)

Vocab and sentence structure are good though.

Given that my Y1 DD is sitting next to me refusing to go to bed I have just asked her to write the story of the Three Bears. This is what she came up with:

"The 3 Bears

Once apon a time there was a norty girl called Goldylocks who went for a walk in the dark woods. Goldylocks saw the three bears pretty house and went in. She ate the daddys big porrije and it was to hot. So she ate the mummys middle one and it was to cold and the little porrije was nice and yummy."

It seems quite similar to your child's attempt OP. DD is the youngest in her Y1 class but she is on the top table for reading and writing. She is very seized with the idea that she must use "descriptives" and "connectives" in her writing. I have no idea what level she is.

Lots of schools use Ros Wilson www.tes.co.uk/teaching-resource/Ros-Wilson-Writing-Levels-3007850/ alongside/ instead of APP. She gives a lot of weighting to handwriting but it is a helpful guidance.
