A Letter to the Queen is one of our quizzes about comprehension. Comprehension is very important for young children to come to grips with – the sooner the better.
This quiz is for Year 1 students during the summer term or for pupils that have just begun Year 2 at KS1. A paragraph of writing will be shown at the top of the page and they are to answer questions on what they have read. You should let them refer back to the text for help.
This will aid their comprehension skills, English language and literacy as suggested in the National Curriculum.
