How to Prepare for the Class 7 English Exam?

Read with Emotion and Comprehension: Do not read the text; find the emotion. When reading literature or poetry, pay attention to the mood, the punctuation, and the tone in order to enhance your comprehension and fluency of reading.
Enhance Grammar with Daily Emphasis: Spend some time on grammar every day, such as working through one part of grammar at a time, sentence structure, or tone. Learn useful rules by doing exercises to learn them in context, and mostly to put meat on what you learn through examples.
Fuel Your Vocabulary Constantly: Have a personal word list. Every day, learn and repeat five new words, use them in your own words, and add the synonyms, antonyms and most common confusions.
Do Creative and Formal Writing: Switch between creative writing (such as diary writing or story outlines) and formal ones (such as notices, letters or paragraphs) so as to get a balance in writing styles.
Read unseen passages on a regular basis. First read the gist, and then read in detail. Take notice of tone as well as meaning and paralinguistic-related questions.
Practice using Sample Papers: Practice by doing model question papers in giving yourself time. Look at your answers to see where you are unfocused and expect to develop confidence and readiness in the exam.
