About This Book
Excel Basic Skills: English Workbook Year 5 will help you with the writing you do every day at school - in English and in ther subjects. Each chapter looks at a different type of writing. Some are imaginative text types such as narratives and poems. These are factual text types such as reports and explanations. All the chapters begin with a sample text. Make sure you read the sample text carefully and look at the special features marked on it. You should then try the activities that follow. These give you guidance and practice in writing a similar type of text. Some activities help you with grammar and punctuation. These focus on words - the way they are spelt and what they mean. Some activities are just for fun. Each chapter ends with activities that help you write a complete text yourself.
The Excel series of English Workbooks for Years 3 will help primary school students with the reading and writing they do every day at school in English and in ther subjects. Each chapter is set up as a separate unit of work covering a different type of writing and contains exercises that relate to that particular text type.
