Carlong Integrated Assessment Papers: Book 3 - Language Arts combines revision and testing to create an exciting and innovative style of assessment text. This book replaces the popular Carlong Third Year Assessment Tests - English.

The book responds directly to the requirements of the new curriculum. The new text revises succinctly but clearly key language arts topics before it presents students with copious related practice exercises. Units are organized under a number of themes which are deemed relevant and important to the target group. Under these themes, the author deals with language arts concepts relevant to the grade. Threads of each overarching theme run throughout the unit to create a very rich, satisfying and integrated language arts experience.

Key Features:

• This is both a revision and practice text.
• Reminders are provided to help parents at home to help their children; they also help the child who missed the lesson to engage with the material on his/her own with some assistance.
• Comprises 9 language arts units, one unit with 10 reasoning and problem-solving tests and one unit with 5 literacy skills tests
• Strives to attain a Pan-Caribbean flavour through stimuli, exercises, examples and photographs
• Contains various testing formats and a change from the rigid multiple choice method
• Highlights important language arts concepts
• Incorporates many comprehension exercises, including three listening comprehension pieces that are directly linked to the Carlong Learning Portals (CLP).
