English Grammar, punctuation and spelling workbook

Post by shafeena »

Hello All,

Please could someone recommend a good work book for GL 11 plus- my DD sits her exams this September. She has already competed her CGP grammar, spelling and punctuation workbook for KS3 and I am looking for something that will give her practice over the summer.

Best Regards,

Shafeena

'...for KS3 ...'.

Seriously?

And, why?

Which exams is she sitting?


SPAG is some marks in 11 plus. but the main bulk is usually comprehension, composition and maths.

I would not be focusing on KS3 SPAG.

There will be more she can do on improving the main three. DG

I'm trying to find these books online for my mate's son. Can't find them anywhere for some reason, where did you get yours from.
