In attempting Multiple Choice Questions, I noticed that for choosing the correct tense - present or past, kids must read the entire sentence before choosing and putting down an answer. There have been a few instances where Jerrie would just read the first part of the sentence and decide that she already knew the answer.
E.g There ____ a bird on the branch. It has yellow feathers.
Straight after reading "a bird", Jerrie went for "is" as her answer, without realising that there was more story at the end of the sentence.
To avoid this kind of mistakes, help the kid to inculcate the habit of reading the full sentence before choosing an answer.
