"Improve Your English teaches children to write good sentences, whether simple, compound or complex ones. It explains just how sentences can be made more interesting, using sub clauses or those small but vital words, conjunctions, such as, if, but, so. The book focuses on how to use good punctuation in the right place and makes children aware of those tricky spellings, called homophones words that sound the same, but are spelled differently, such as, their and there. It shows young writers how they can improve their writing by correcting some basic errors. The parts of speech are also explained in such a simple way, with our friendly ghost haunts spookily, so your child will soon be using colorful adjectives, verbs and adverbs. A section of graded exercises, with suggested answers, helps the child practice their spelling, punctuation and grammar skills. Answers Included."

Between the ages of 9 and 12, children have to complete Standardised.Assessment.Tests (Sats). To help them practise for these tests, we have produced a new series of comprehension booklets. The Standards and Testing Agency states that the child has 1 hour to complete the test, answering the questions in the answer booklet. Read one text and answer the questions about that text, before moving onto the next text. There are three texts and three sets of questions in each booklet. The tests in this booklet are based on the KS2 Reading Assessment sample papers. It is important to try and complete them in an hour, but it is your choice. The more tests you practise the quicker you will get.
