      Y1, my son only used chinese and history textbooks. Math, Science and I think Geo untouched. Lit book also didn't use.
      Literature, by definition, is reading by books. How can it not have textbooks?? Sorry... these digitizing mumbo-jumbo is getting out of hand πŸ˜‚

        They were using short stories like Sredni Vashtar instead. We bought 'The Little Prince' but not used. :scratchhead:

            Oh... you mean they actually didn't use the recommended text. That's weird. Why would they want to incur the additional cost? So you had to buy another textbook for Sredni Vashtar?

                Tr printed the short stories as worksheets. Not sure why they asked to buy The Little Prince book if they were not gonna use it.

                        Hi parents,


                        May I check if you know of any private bus service provider from Yishun to HCI? I tried checking with Mr. Jonathan Chan and Mr. Peter Lim but they are not providing this service route. Thank you.
