Containing 20 (2x10) specimen questions for Paper 1 Section B of the GCSE AQA English Language, this resource is perfect for revision, homework, assessment, or use in the classroom- especially with the limited material available from AQA. They mimic the style of the real exam and so provide as close an experience to the exam as possible. 45 minutes is advised per question- though for younger years, more time may be spent.
These flashcards are a compilation of the most important words that could potentially be in the 11+. They can be printed out, cut along the lines, and then stuck back to back. They make vocabulary learning fun and easy; they make learning new words possible in a short space of time.
Why not stick them around your house to get familiar with them? Test yourself: take them in the car, look over them before you go to bed, whenever you have a free moment.
These cards contain one word on the front, and a short, snappy definition on the back.
For best results, print on card and laminate.
