Another "level this writing" one!

[Bumpsadaisie]

Sorry, I know it's boring. But I am wondering what level experienced people would put this writing at.

Ooh look a river by the side of the river nowon wants too sit by the side. Ooh look theres a nise placs to sit down. A Big wav came ohno thort the troop. So they all went too the homes too be safe. as they reached the homes, ooh fyoo they said!

"troop" should read "groop" ...

Does it not depend age of child?

Heels no it doesn't depend on the age of the child. A level is a level is a level. Whether it is a good level depends on the age.

OP - no idea, not a teacher.

Thanks both, bumping for any teachers out there!

It would depend on the amount of support given- level 1 assumes a reasonable level of support, much less for level2. I never level a piece of writing, only the writer based on a lot more evidence than 1 piece.

All that aside I'd go with 2c, but I'd be interested in the handwriting, placement on a page etc.

Thanks, it was written completely by herself in her bedroom.

I'd go 1a/2c dependant on handwriting (letter formation, ascenders and descenders, finger spaces and written on the lines)

There's not a huge amount of punctuation so I'd probably go more for a 1 than a 2.

Sorry, just read it again, scrap the punctuation comment.

Was there a exclamation mark on the end?

You can't really level a single piece of writing, but I'd go with 1b at a guess.

OP - not getting at you, but you / your spell checker have improved the spelling in your transcript compared with the original, this will affect any level. e.g. reached / reeched

I don't think the spell check has changed it enough to make a difference to the level. The inconsistent use of upper and lower case letters probably makes more of a difference.
