Language Prep Guide

About this curriculum

The 10 tests have been designed to be very similar to the Ontario test the students will be taking. Many of the questions are asked in a similar way so that students can get familiar with the questioning format and remove some stress. Students will encounter different types of reading experiences as they make their way through the various tests including fiction and nonfiction stories, a newspaper article, a friendly letter, poetry, and informational text. They will then be asked to answer corresponding multiple choice and open response questions. There is also plenty of writing practice as students are asked to write sentences, paragraphs, short stories, instructions, a description, a movie review, a poem, a letter, and a newspaper article. There are also multiple-choice questions featuring essential grammar and writing skills. Help your Grade 6 students prepare for the Ontario Language Assessment test.
