Help pupils to ace the KS2 Reading SATs papers. Using a variety of carefully selected classic poems, children are given a greater understanding of poems to enable them to practise each of the eight Reading Content Domain question types that appear in the KS2 Reading SATs papers with confidence. Each of the 12 classic poems is accompanied by eight sets of questions based on the Key Stage 2 (KS2) Reading Content Domains and National Curriculum.The accompanying activities help to guide children through the poems, providing them with opportunities to understand the poet's choice of vocabulary, widen their knowledge of synonyms, develop understanding of challenging language devices and practise their reading comprehension skills.Inference activities help hone inference skills and give an indication of the pupil's depth of understanding of the poem.
