The 10-Minute Tests are short, timed tests designed to consolidate skills and build speed and confidence as children approach the SATs. Ideal for independent work sessions at home, the tests provide essential bite-sized practice of key national test topics. KS2 SATs Reading 10-Minute Tests contains twenty-two reading comprehension tests based on high quality texts across the three key areas: fiction, non-fiction and poetry. The texts cover a wide range of subjects and genres, from classic works by George Bernard Shaw and E. Nesbitt, to contemporary fiction from Cornelia Funke and a biography of Queen Elizabeth II. Questions are presented in the same style and format as those in the SATs, and the tests become gradually more challenging throughout the book. Pull-out answers ensure quick and easy marking and a progress chart allows you to record scores and track improvement.
