Let’s Practise Grammar (Pack 3) ( 9-12 years) - Activity Pack

The 'Let's Practise Grammar (Pack 3)' activity pack is a comprehensive resource designed for children aged between 9 and 12 years, aiming to enhance their grammar skills in preparation for Standardised Assessment Tests (SATs). The pack includes a series of new grammar practice papers that are pivotal for achieving top grades in these assessments. It includes a variety of exercises that test knowledge on punctuation, spelling, and grammar, reflecting the format and content of the KS2 English Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling Assessment sample papers. To simulate the actual test conditions, students are advised to complete the tests within a 45-minute timeframe, although this is at the student's discretion. The pack is structured to encourage repeated practice, which can help improve speed and accuracy over time.

Within the practice papers, students are presented with a range of question types, from multiple-choice to written responses, each designed to assess different aspects of their grammar skills. Questions cover a broad spectrum of topics, including sentence punctuation, correct use of capital letters, understanding verb forms, and identifying word classes such as adverbs and determiners. The tasks also delve into more complex areas such as identifying subordinate clauses and using relative pronouns correctly. Each question is allocated a certain number of marks, guiding students on the weight of each question. The pack, authored by Sally A. Jones and published by Guinea Pig Education, is a valuable tool for solidifying grammar knowledge and boosting confidence ahead of SATs.
