Year 9 Language Conventions

 

Maximising Test Results - NAPLAN*-style Literacy: Quick Skills Tests, Year 9 Language Conventions contains 39 targeted quick skills tests (or work sheets) to help prepare students for the Language Conventions component of the national literacy test program. Each work sheet targets a particular skill regarding spelling, punctuation and using language; reminders of spelling and grammar rules, with examples and exceptions to rules, are also included. Each work sheet contains between 10 and 50 questions, providing students with ample opportunity to practise and master each skill. A final practice test brings together all the skills covered in the previous work sheets. Answers are given at the back of the book. The PDF version of this book, included on the CD-ROM, can be projected onto an interactive whiteboard to help in class discussions about spelling, punctuation and using language.
