Total Marks: 20
Note to marker: Award 1 mark for each fully correct response unless stated otherwise. Accept minor spelling variations that do not change the meaning (e.g. "hapPy" for "happy"). Spelling errors that change the meaning (e.g. "hungry" written as "hungery") may still receive the mark at P1 if pronunciation is clear, but note the spelling in feedback.
Visual note: Questions 3, 6, 9 and 18 depend on image placeholders. Markers should refer to the linked <image_placeholder> for the expected visual features.
Section A: Multiple Choice
1. (B) apple A "naming word" (noun) for a fruit. "Chair" is furniture, "dog" is an animal, "run" is an action. Common mistake: students may pick "apple" but say "fruit"; accept any fruit name as it shows understanding of the category.
2. (C) happy When you laugh, you feel happy. "Sleepy" means tired, "hungry" means you want food, "thirsty" means you want a drink.
3. (B) tiger The image shows an animal with black and orange stripes and a long bushy tail - this is a tiger. An elephant is large with a trunk, a rabbit has long ears, a monkey has a long tail without stripes.
4. (B) sing An action word (verb) is something you can do. "Table" is a thing, "blue" is a colour, "mother" is a person.
5. (C) hot Sunny days are hot. "Wet" relates to rain, "cold" relates to icy or air-conditioned weather, "dark" relates to night time.
6. (C) happy The image shows a smiling face, which means the boy is happy. "Sad" would show a frown, "angry" would show a scowl, "tired" would show drooping eyes.
7. (C) sister A family member. "Pencil" is a school item, "chair" is furniture, "water" is a drink.
8. (B) blue The sky on a clear day is blue. Grass is green, strawberries are red, the sun is yellow.
Section B: Matching
9. Award 1 mark per correct line (4 marks total).
- Picture of a cat → "cat"
- Picture of a ball → "ball"
- Picture of a milk carton → "milk"
- Picture of a bus → "bus"
Teaching note: Matching tests whether students can read simple common-noun labels and connect them to the right visual. If a student mismatches "milk" with "bus" (both have white in them), point out the shape of the carton vs the wheels of the bus.
Section C: Fill in the Blank
10. school "I go to school every weekday" - a place the child attends daily. Accept "school" only; do not accept "class" or "home" as the meaning is a place of learning, not a single room.
11. big The sentence "The elephant is very big" is the most natural. Other valid answers could be "large" or "huge", but the word bank only includes "big". Common mistake: students may try to fit "hungry" or "read" - remind them to read the full sentence first.
12. hungry "My tummy is empty. I am hungry" - the feeling of needing food. Common mistake: students may write "thirsty" because "water" feels close; remind them that "empty tummy" means food, not drink.
13. read "I like to read books before bed" - the action of looking at written words. Common mistake: students may write "school" because they associate books with school; clarify that you can read anywhere.
Section D: Odd One Out
14. (C) chair "Apple", "banana" and "grape" are all fruits. "Chair" is furniture. Common mistake: students may pick "apple" because it is a different colour; remind them to look at what category the item belongs to.
15. (D) table "Run", "jump" and "sleep" are all action words. "Table" is a thing. Common mistake: students may pick "sleep" because you do it in bed; remind them that the test is about the type of word, not where you do it.
Section E: Vocabulary in Context
16. (1 mark) "small" The passage says "My dog Max is small." This tells us the size. Accept "small" only. If the student writes "soft" or "brown", they are describing a different feature (feel or colour) and should be reminded to look for the size clue.
17. (1 mark) "hot" The passage says "The soup is very hot." This tells us the temperature. Accept "hot" only.
18. (2 marks total - 1 for word, 1 for reason)
- Expected word: "delicious" or "yummy" or "tasty" or "crispy" or "hot" or "brown". Mark 1 mark for any sensible describing word.
- Expected reason: a simple sentence explaining the choice, e.g. "I chose 'delicious' because the chicken looks cooked and ready to eat" or "I chose 'yummy' because the food looks good to eat".
Award 1 mark for a clear, sensible describing word. Award 1 mark for a reason that connects to the picture (e.g. colour, smell, taste, look). Common mistake: students may write a naming word (e.g. "chicken") instead of a describing word; remind them that describing words tell us what something is like, not what it is.
19. (B) huge "Huge" means the same as "big". "Tiny" means the opposite (small), "fast" and "slow" describe speed, not size.
20. (B) sad "Sad" means the opposite of "happy". "Glad" means the same as "happy", "fun" and "smile" are also related to feeling good, not the opposite.
