Book Description
The learning and teaching of composition at Primary Five and Primary Six is similar. How well a student writes a composition is dependent primarily on his or her exposure to the English Language. Language skills are not acquired overnight but can be gradually enhanced through intensive exposure, a voracious appetite for reading and constant practice. Many students who are able to breeze through Paper 2 of their English Language examination find it difficult to score well for Paper 1 – Composition and Situation Writing.

It is beneficial for students to get regular practice in writing their own compositions. This book has been specially designed to be a valuable educational aid for students of all ability levels. Whether your child is facing difficulties in writing compositions or is already a prolific young writer seeking to up his or her writing skills a notch, this book will provide the stimulus for your child to take his or her writing skills to new heights.
