Introduction
The Remedial Instruction Toolkit was designed to support students across Malaysia
who have temporarily fallen behind with English.
Using existing Ministry of Education documents as the basis of design, the Toolkit
is a comprehensive resource pack for Year 4 English teachers to support their
Remedial Instruction students.
Each unit is mapped to the following documents to ensure that teachers can easily
use the resources in their classrooms:
• Skill Focus
• Thinking about Phonics
• Thinking about Vocabulary
• Thinking about Grammar
• Thinking about Out of Class
