Dear Parents,

We are pleased to share with you all the new launch of the PSLE Comprehension and Language Use Book which is suitable for Upper Primary students.

Synopsis

The PSLE examination taken by 12-year-olds is one of the most important tests as it determines which secondary school they are posted to and what subjects they will study and ultimately what career options they will pursue.

Backed by over 50 years of combined teaching experience in both the public and private sectors, the authors reveal the secrets to doing well in the English-language exam. The two volumes in this series feature past-year questions, new exercises and sample answers, as well as other useful pointers and ideas that will let your child excel in this key PSLE subject.

This volume, Comprehension and Language Use, covers all seven sections of Paper 2: Grammar, Vocabulary, Visual Text Comprehension, Editing, Comprehension Cloze, Synthesis and Transformation, and Comprehension Open-Ended. Each section is furnished with tips, concrete examples and five full exercises.
