Collins Primary Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling has been designed to support all pupils who are
studying grammar, punctuation and spelling from age 7 to 11, whether this is for exams or to revise the key
building blocks of the English language.
It contains the rules and advice that will help students get to grips with these essential aspects of the
English language. There are clear, easy-to-follow explanations of how grammar works, what punctuation
does, and how to spell correctly. Each section – grammar, punctuation and spelling – is laid out in an
open, attractive design that guides the user easily through the information provided. Dozens of examples
show exactly how the rules of English work.
The final section is a dictionary list of words that pupils must know how to spell. These have been
specially selected for this age group based on real-life experience from Spelling Bees conducted by
Collins Dictionaries. The words are written out in full, with their word class clearly shown, along with
any other forms such as plurals, comparatives and superlatives, and inflections – all of which are also
written in full, making it easy for the pupil to understand. Many helpful tips on spelling are also included
throughout the spelling dictionary section to make learning easier.
Collins Primary Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling is an indispensable guide to the structure and rules
of English, offering clear and accessible guidance for pupils from age 7 to 11.
