PREFACE
PET(PRACTICAL ENGLISH TASKS) is an effort made by Jabatan Pelajaran Negeri
Kelantan to upgrade the level of English among the students in the state. It is also to
motivate them in learning the language. Most importantly, this helpful holiday homework
is planned to ensure that the students use their time wisely during the school holiday.
Indirectly, this will assist both teachers and students in the teaching and learning
process. By using PET prepared by the Action Committee of English (ACE), it is hoped
that there will also be a marked improvement in the students academic performance,
resulting in a better achievement in both the school and national examinations.

PET(PRACTICAL ENGLISH TASKS) focuses mainly on three aspects of learning, as

follows:
Grammar
Vocabulary
Writing
PET consists of tasks that are simple, interesting and fun but at the same time, the
activities selected are helpful and effective for the students to improve their level of
English proficiency.This is mainly due to the hope that they will be able to improve their
English and later perform better in examinations.
The state education department of Kelantan wishes very much to see that all the schools
in the state will utilize PET(PRACTICAL ENGLISH TASKS) for the benefit of their
students.

GOOD LUCK IN USING PET!
