How will these packs benefit my child?
Last year saw the introduction of a new question type in some 7+ and 8+ English exams.
This new question type involved reading a short passage and then rewriting and improving it.
Marks are awarded for improving vocabulary, sentence structure and punctuation.
These new packs have been created so children can familiarise themselves with this new question type. Here are some of the key benefits:
- Each bitesized task requires your child to think actively and carefully about their choice of vocabulary and punctuation.
- By analysing the passages critically, children quickly develop key skills that help them differentiate between excellent and poor quality writing.
- These skills are broadly transferable across all elements of the 7+ and 8+ English exams, such as comprehension and more traditional writing tasks.
