English Toolkit

English Toolkit is an essential reference targeting the technical skills that underpin successful writing in English. The skills are laid out in four clear sections addressing:

• Grammar
• Spelling
• Punctuation and
• Logic

Each section deals with a comprehensive selection of skills necessary to English students from years 7-12. Each skill features a typical error, offers correction, explanation and plenty of exercises to help students develop discrete skills. Answers to exercises are provided at the end of book. English Toolkit uses a unique code system to sort and identify technical skills for each section. Teachers can use the codes to correct and direct students to pinpointed help. Students can then work independently until they reach confidence – and move onto associated skills as the need arises. Ideal for home and classroom use, English Toolkit is an innovative response to the need for basic skills work in English through the secondary years.
