        Dear parents of sec 1 kiddos,


        Fret not if you cannot find the guide book for your kid's Lit text.

        Just do a google \"study guide for xxx\" and you will be amazed at the array of links. Most of them can be accessed for free.

        Secondly, you can go down to the second hand book stores at Bras Basah Complex. They contain a treasure trove of guide books. Some with hand written notes too!

        Hope this helps!

        šŸ˜„

                  Not sure if any school is using this book by Markus Zusak. The title is 'The book Thief'.

                  DS and myself are reading this book leisurely. The language is totally beautiful and the plot so luring. Cannot let a good book slip through your fingers, highly recommended to your DC... enjoy šŸ˜„ .

                    My dd needs help for Literature! She got 9/25 for lit paper & only 12 in her class failed. I am worried as Lit/SS is her only humanities subject in her L1R5. She has asked me to get a Lit tutor for her. I don't know if it will help to get a tutor at this stage.


                    dd said she has difficulty in understanding what her teacher's comments were. She told me she had difficulty scoring well under this new teacher. Dh read thru her answers & teacher's comments & agreed with the teacher's. Dh found that she's not clear in her explanations & analysis of the content. The Lit book that she's taking is \"roll of Thunder, Hear my cry\".

                    Does anyone know of any good resources to tap on or even a good Lit tutor for this book? :?:

                      There are quite a few online sites for notes. They are US sites, but should help.
                      http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/rollofthunder/
                      http://www.shmoop.com/roll-of-thunder/

                      Perhaps your husband should take her through the teacher's comments in detail and show her how she should have answered? I don't know what Lit tutors do, but being shown how might be sufficient. She could also see if she can borrow the answers of someone who did well and compare with her own?
