How can my child improve PSLE English comprehension and cloze?

Comprehension and cloze reward reading the whole passage for meaning before answering, using context clues for cloze blanks, and answering open-ended questions in full sentences that lift words from the text. The biggest score leak is rushing — guessing cloze words and writing one-word answers.

Practise the question types

Comprehension improves with deliberate practice on each question type — inference, vocabulary-in-context, and "explain why". Work through practice passages with model answers, then have your child's answers checked. LearnBuddy can explain why an answer misses and how to phrase it.
