Product description
This series aims to help students develop a firm foundation in understanding the structure of English sentences as well as gain the confidence to use the acquired skills in their compositions.
The sentences which students write in answer to the questions set in the practice exercises are similar to the sentence structure skills they should master at the end of Primary 6, as spelled out in the latest Ministry of Education syllabus for primary schools. Between the two books, the various strategies are comprehensively covered. Since learning is enhanced through insight, explanatory notes and answers to the exercises accompany each unit. Except where the strategies covered overlap, explanations given in one book will not be given in the other. A box at the beginning of most units highlights the different words to be covered for that particular strategy. Those in bold are discussed in this book, while those which are not are introduced in the other.
These books will help teachers, parents and pupils to identify and remedy sentence structure weaknesses easily because the skills have been classified by grammatical items for a systematic approach. Following such an approach also means that pupils are exposed to a variety of ways in which each skill can be explored, building agility in writing and thinking.
