Any kind souls here has the answer key? The book is by Beverly Tay. Thanks in advance.

Lay off the assessment books. He is already having tuition for all subjects which means he is already doing more work then assigned by the school. I would actually say lay off tuition of he is still giving average of above average results but that depends on your expectations of him I guess. It is not uncommon for kids moving from P1&2 to P3 to experience some drop in their grades. If his foundation at P1 & 2 is sound, what can be done is to get him to understand that questions and sums are no longer that straight forward and simple. DD too was in P2 mode when doing her first tests, she glanced at the questions and made assumptions without reading the questions properly, which lead to a lower then average score. I think most importantly, what your son needs now is encouragement, not more work.

Thank you I have also seen the answer sheet previously but the way the answer is being phrased does not seem convincing.Is there a better way to rephrase the answer so that is more complete and to the point?TIA

Hi tianzhu,thanks a lot for your step-by-step \"model\".Yes,I have understood it

Hi all, Ds is gg to have his ca by the end of the month. What sld we do to prepare for the tests? Any suggestion? Tia.

My boys’ school used to be using Houghton Mifflin books, but I m not sure whether they are same as yours. That was when he was in P1&2 (he is P6 this year). In P3, they switched back to conventional textbooks. The school claimed that it was one of the few schools pioneering it then. I think it is a US version of our local Stellar program. Personally, I didnt like it and I had no idea what they were teaching. I only had to buy 2 workbooks which were kept in school and they children tore out worksheets to do. I had to teach my son grammar when I noted that he was not being taught grammar rules systematically.

My DD school is using these 3 books.

I have some brand new P3 assessment books to let go at at least 20% discount off the retail price. Pls browse here:http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=28855&p=650525#p650525Thank you for your attention.
