At the request of Key Stage 3 teachers, Schofield & Sims has rebranded two key series - English Skills and Mental Arithmetic - for use at Key Stage 3 and beyond. Perfect for recovery work and for building functional skills in English, Essential English gives each student intensive practice that is matched exactly to their ability level, supporting differentiation and personalised learning. The series enables students to succeed in skill areas where they have previously failed and widens written vocabulary, helping them to gain proficiency in other subjects, both academic and vocational. Essential English Skills 1 is for pupils who can write short simple sentences and questions using simple vocabulary and punctuation. They have mastered the basics of reading and writing, but may not always spell words correctly. This book helps students learn to: extend sentences and write compound sentences, check sense and grammatical agreement, punctuate sentences and questions, find alternatives for everyday words and make correct spelling choices.
