By Primary Three, students have reached the stage where they should be able to write a composition with a well-defined plot and well-developed characters. However, how well a student writes a composition is dependent primarily on his or her exposure to the English Language. This book has been written in a way to be equally beneficial and relevant to students in Primary Three and Primary Four. Often, many students find Paper 1 of their English Language examination the most difficult to score. Paper 1 tests students on their ability to write a full-length composition and takes about 30% of the entire PSLE English examination. Given the high weightage of marks allocated to composition writing, it is unfortunate that many students do not get sufficient opportunities to write compositions in school and have them graded by their teachers. Practice makes perfect. To cultivate good writing skills, it is essential for students to get regular practice in writing their own compositions. One story a week is a reasonable pace for most students. This book has been specially designed to be a valuable educational aid for students across all ability levels. Whether your child is facing difficulty 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. The model compositions in this book may seem a tad too challenging for many Primary Three and Primary Four students. However, they have been deliberately written to serve as a reference for students to inspire them to new heights of creative writing. For each composition exercise, ample guidance is provided to help students to pen down terrific compositions they never thought they were capable of. By faithfully going through every composition exercise, your child will be exposed to a wide array of possible writing topics. Above all, he or she will be embarking on a journey towards becoming a more confident and creative writer.
