Features: This series of books is written entirely by frontline teachers from Huanggang High School in Hubei Province. It is a teaching guide and after-school homework book designed for students with medium to high academic performance. It is suitable for students with medium and above grades. It has the following characteristics:
1. Deep Understanding of Teaching Reform and Exams
The two "understandings" refer to:
- Understanding the current progress of the new curriculum standards reform.
- Understanding the new trends and requirements of the junior high school entrance exams.
This series not only selects excellent questions from past junior high school entrance exams but also aligns all practice questions closely with the actual exam questions, providing students with more effective guidance. Additionally, the new curriculum standards version included in this series is quite comprehensive and is written entirely in accordance with the latest textbooks, meeting the needs of different schools and teachers.
2. Highlighting Key Points and Emphasizing Difficulties
This series does not force or deliberately cover all the content requirements of the exam syllabus and textbooks. Simple and basic content that students should know is rarely addressed. About 90% of the content in this series focuses on medium and above difficulty questions. The principle followed in setting the difficulty level of exercises in this series is:
Foundation (Consolidation): Medium (Improvement): Hard (Enhancement) = 1:3:6
This is a key feature that distinguishes the exercise arrangement of this book from general synchronous teaching guides, after-school exercises, and homework books.
3. Flexible Application of Knowledge
To align with the new curriculum standards' goal of cultivating students' ability to flexibly apply knowledge, this series introduces many comprehensive questions while emphasizing difficulties. This helps readers develop the habit of comprehensively considering and solving problems during synchronous learning. This approach fully meets the requirements of teaching reform in terms of improving quality.
4. Focusing on Daily Practice and Improvement
Exercises in this series include "Mid-term Test Questions" and "Final Test Questions," with most also featuring "Unit Test Questions." Considering the of certain subjects and grades, there are also sections on "New Question Appreciation," "Extracurricular Innovative Questions," and "Clicking into Junior High and High School Entrance Exam Questions." Students can practice in class or after school with the guidance of teachers or independently take tests. By carefully designed questions, we believe students can gradually improve their abilities through regular homework and exercises.
Overall, this series is designed for students with medium to high academic performance in key middle schools across various provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions. It fully meets the teaching and learning needs of students and middle school teachers.
