What the questions look like
Three examples at the ages 10–11 level. In BrainBite, every question comes with an instant explanation.
“It's raining cats and dogs” means…
It's raining very hard. An idiom means something different from its literal words. English has thousands.
Which fits a science report: 'guess' or 'estimate'?
Estimate. Academic words say the same thing more precisely — and they score points in every subject.
“The soldiers ___ through the town.” Most precise verb?
Marched. Walk is fine, march paints the picture. Precise verbs do the work of three adjectives.
