      This year exam is overall very difficult as cannot afford to have any careless mistakes if not t-score will be damn low. Can start reading o-level stuff so that the kid mind won't become too afraid of low t-score or become too bored or too aimless.


      Last night went with DD to popular to get some sec 1 vocabulary workbooks to practice during holiday.. Got a geography guide book, Chinese idioms book, a literature book etc..

      THat's indeed kiasu :lol:

      I think it's time to free them off for 2ndary school. Marks are much less important. To develop their genuine abilities make more sense. My own point of view, haha. πŸ˜„

        Any way, we are off to a trip for next of whole PSLE marking week! :celebrate:

              Can anyone recommend which text and assessment books are good for Sec 1 Maths ?

              Thank you!

                      Let him have a break. After intense preparation for PSLE, they deserve to have a good break ... re-charge as they enter into a new phase in their lives.

                        since Monday, he's on his PSP on night long!
                        But did tell him won't allow him to spend his time this way till next year! I'll definitely assign him some study to do.
