Students around the ages of 10 or 11 move up to a higher level, and a harder book. To ensure that the students are able to deal with these increased demands, I’ve prepared a short test.
Most of the questions are based on work covered in the previous blocks, along with some extra questions based on grammar and vocabulary that I have taught.
Students will sit apart. Anyone caught cheating will receive a ZERO score. I am serious.
