2019 PSLE Discussions and Strategies (Children born in 2007)

[love1001]

I am wondering in P6, should we still buy assessment books or just do top school papers? I realise most of the time, the assessment books are left untouched.

Still, it's a good idea to have a SC assessment book to practise thematically, more accurate answer key...

topical assessment books are necessary to work on weak topics before going on to past year exam papers. the latter should be used when the topics have all been taught. questions in past year exam papers are picked from different topics, so the foundation has to be strengthened first. that’s what I feel.

Top school papers definitely. Some assessment book authors have unrealistic standards and marking. Very different from what MOE expects.

You can also try checking with your child's teachers for book recommendations. Although they aren't supposed to encourage it, they will sometimes be able to recommend which books are more \"realistic\".

once I asked teacher during ptm, any recommendations? cher says all in the notes…dd seems to read notes now maybe not all as her filing is not quite updated.

As some of the parents enquired about the schools of the interested participants in their PMs to me (probably to decide which session to opt for?), I thought there's no harm listing them out since no names are shown

Hi chenlaoshi,

Yes, i find above brown book very useful, for Normal Chinese. Many students in my kid's school also using this brown book

I didn't use blue book (the 2nd image, below the 1st brown book), because brown book is enough, to me.
