Understanding English: Practice

Understanding English is a series of topic-based study books for children in Key Stage 2, providing rigorous practice of key subject areas. Each topic contains a concise summary of the information required by the National Curriculum, making the series ideal for use as preparation for the Key Stage 2 English grammar, punctuation and spelling test. Each book is a stand-alone resource, so children can either work through them in order or focus on individual aspects of the subject. Together, the eight books support the whole of the Key Stage 2 English curriculum, providing a solid foundation for success in English.

Understanding English Practice helps pupils to revise topics covered by the other seven books in the Understanding English series, keeping their skills sharp and preparing them for the Key Stage 2 national tests. Each page in this book links to the topic-based main series, making cross-reference simple.

Understanding English Practice covers:

• grammar
• punctuation
• spelling
• vocabulary
• poetry
• fiction
• non-fiction.

Answers are provided at the back of the book.
