For Ages: 9-10 years
Gateway to Literacy: Carlong Literacy Skills - New Edition is a new edition of our Carlong Assessment Tests: Literacy Skills that offers new and exciting items while retaining many of the old favourites. This must-have textbook includes 12 Test Papers - four more than the previous edition - that prepares students for the Ministry of Education's Grade 4 Literacy Test, as well as helps them to develop the literacy skills they need to communicate everyday.
Organization of the text
Note to the Teacher/Parent - this provides useful information on how the Test Papers are organized and how to use the book.
Note to the Student - the student is introduced to the textbook, including the Lit Wiz mascot, as well as told how the Test Papers can prepare them to be successful in the Grade 4 Literacy Test.
General Instructions - this outlines what the student will be required to do in each section (an example is provided for each section).
Test Papers 1 -12 - the Test Papers are graded within the book with the more difficult Test Papers appearing last.
The material, therefore, caters to students at all literacy levels.
Each Test Paper is broken down into three sections:
The number of items in each section and the time allotted to complete each reflect the format of the exam.
Track Your Progress Score Graph - both allow students to see how well they are doing. The teacher or parent can use these to identify which section often presents a challenge to the student.
Comprehension Schema - the schema breaks down the topics covered and helps the teacher or parent to closely monitor the student's progress.
Sample Answer Sheet and Test Answers - the use of the sample answer sheet mimics what is done in the actual examination.
