The Basic Skills Test Yrs 3-8 Suitable preparation for NAPLAN* Tests has been devised to help parents assess the level of attainment reached by a child in a variety of educational skills. Most of these skills are practised in the Basic Skills series.
Before giving any test to a child the parent should check with the instructions for that test at the beginning of this book. Answers are given for most tests in the removable answer section.
Some tests are purely diagnostic, others give the range of subject matter so a parent can make up examples for further practice. Many tests have been trialled in schools and the results are given on a year by year basis.
Included in this book are questions to test your child in:
- General Aptitude
- Reading - Phonics
- Reading - Sight Words
- Reading Comprehension
- English Vocabulary
- Synonyms
- Confusing Words Spelling
- English Usage
- Capitals and Punctuation
- English Grammar
- Tables
- Mechanical Arithmetic

- Problems
* These tests have been produced by Coroneos Publications independently of Australian Governments and are not officially endorsed publications of the NAPLAN program.
