we bought 'too many' books! all collecting dust.

After PSLE over next year (2019), was wondering ... how to get rid of so many un-touched primary school assessment books at home ?

ChiefKiasu:

Friends, the date now is mid October 2018. Even if your kids learnt it now you will probably have to repeat it next year to make sure they remember the techniques. Better to spend the time now relaxing the kids for the big push next year. Start maybe a week before school reopens in December.

I beg to differ. After P5 SA2 exams, hv a holiday break then start revision or grounding those identified gaps (subj/topics).

The big push next year will pick up very fast & no time to focus in comfort of home coz supp classes & teachers pushing all the PSLE prep practices towards Prelim in Aug & PSLE in late Sept. very short year. Best to start the discipline fr Nov on a weekly & daily basis.

Get the kids to read more. Don't forget some kids will be involved in Olympaids & DSAs. All need time. Last, but not least, if can get them to start work hard now, best coz this is ard the age some kids will go thro puberty & may feel tired out or moods. So, that time parents need to understand their need for rests & manage emotions rather than press for all yr revision on top of school's. MHO lah.

I can only say pace yourself and your kids. Don’t burn out before the actual exams.

I second this book, effective revision for grammar. For students who need improvement is cloze passage, I highly recommend below book by SAP publication. DD was extremely weak in cloze passage in P5 and through recommendation, I purchased this book for her. It helps improve her accuracy to 14/15 or 15/15. She only has 3 English assessment books and this is one of them.

If your child is already good in cloze passage, you may skip this book and focus in other areas that need improvement as P6 is a relatively short year and the students need to use their time effectively. 70% of her revision was spent on Math and Science, time-consuming subjects if you know what I mean.

The need to balance study and rest time is critical to ensure they are in the best of health for PSLE in end Sep - early Oct.

[MrsKiasu]

thank you mommies for the recommendations…

Not sure if it’s due to puberty or anxiety, in beginning of P6, DD was always feeling lerthagic even though she slept before 10pm everyday. More often than not, she complained about headache.


I started to brew cordycep soup for her every week. Each time, I put 4-5pcs of cordycep, a few pcs of Chinese wolfberry with about 200g of lean pork and a bowl of water (double boil for 3-4 hours).

It works for her and throughout this year, she only fell sick once and she also told me she does not feel as tired or restless as before. I think drinking alternate week is also fine.

Stay healthy, little piggies!

[MrsKiasu]

Recently came across the Kinohimitsu be sharp vitamins so ordered as there is discount. Happy that it arrived before exam over. She seems to be more upbeat/happier these few days. I m not sure if that is due to vitamin or me no more nagging. My gals esp dd1 health quite alright not much problem…last week almost sick as caught in the rain and she took vitamin C now looks ok. Yes wish our piggies are all healthy!
