FOREWORD<br />
In this daily <strong>practice</strong> workbook you will be able to develop your ability to use<br />
<strong>English</strong>. Each day, you will have questions to answer in the areas of spelling, word<br />
study, punctuation and grammar. The 150 days of questions are broken into 15<br />
units of 10 days. Each unit has a focus, which will help to improve your <strong>English</strong> <strong>skills</strong><br />
as well as your knowledge about how language works.<br />
At the completion of each set of 10 days, you will have the opportunity to test<br />
what you learnt by doing some revision questions.<br />
Your daily scores are recorded in the bubble at the bottom of each day. These<br />
daily scores can be transferred onto the record sheets in the front of your book.<br />
This will give an overview of your performance for the whole school year.<br />
Be sure to read each question carefully before you answer it. If you find a question<br />
too difficult, move on to the next one. If you have time at the end, you can go back<br />
to the one you haven’t done.<br />
