      The book costs around $12.50 for Vol. 1 and it was certainly not worth the price!!! They cd’ve easily added Vol 2 also into it…the pics are in B&W and very large. Only the Cover seems attractive!

      Sorry frenz, am very much disappointed.

        Hmmm I also bought mine today..but I find it very good. I have also been with them for a while and like what I see. The whole thing is in black and white but the content is what I am more concerned about. And the mnemonics are very effective and the kids write so well. Maybe you were expecting something different...but anyway, to each his own:)

            Content-wise it is good but our children still needs guidance…I had re-do the topics in a more child-friendly way.The compos by the students were really appreciated by our children. But I suggest that for Vol 2, they make it in a easier way, child-friendly way!

              I like the book. It provides a lot of insight to helping my children with writing. I have a question. How fast does it normally take for a child to write like this from the time the child first joins the centre?

                        Hey TAS,


                        The book is very good, I like the drawings and cover also. It does not look like an assessment book! :love: The content is also fantastic, I love the diarrhoea example so funny! And the world war 2 story too. Your students did a great job!

                        Also wondering who is Jolie Koh? Is she a teacher at TAS or a student?
                        Hi singapore45,

                        Thanks for the feedback! We will let the students know that too
                        to encourage them!

                        Jolie Koh is an assistant teacher at TAS and she is very artistic hence
                        she is the one who did the illustrations and cover design.

                        TAS
