How to practise exam questions by topic

  1. Choose the topic that cost marks in classwork or a past paper. Try the questions without notes so the first attempt shows what the student can actually recall.
  2. Use the mark scheme to compare the method as well as the final answer. For written subjects, check that each credited point is stated clearly; for calculations, identify the first step that went wrong.
  3. Revisit the same topic after a gap, then mix it into a full paper. Topic practice repairs one weakness at a time, while a timed paper checks whether the method can still be recognised among other questions.

Add the correct punctuation to this sentence: what a beautiful day it is

  1. Read the sentence and decide what it is doing. It is showing strong feeling about the day, not asking anything.
  2. It begins with the word What, and a sentence that begins with What or How and shows strong feeling is an exclamation.
  3. Every sentence begins with a capital letter, so the w becomes W.
  4. An exclamation ends with an exclamation mark, so put one at the end.
  5. Write the finished sentence: What a beautiful day it is!
  6. Read it back to check: it has a capital letter at the start and one end mark at the end, and nothing in the middle needs a comma.
