Hi plum-cake,

Which title of 2A and 2B are you referring to ?
I know I am not supposed to walk into Popular but just curious.
My mum told me not to go to Popular...whole year 书 书 书 (sounds like 输 输 输). I told her I don't gamble, so it doesn't matter. :rotflmao:

Hi Janet,
The 2A & 2B books are from the \" visible thinking in mathematics\" range by Ammiel Wan. They also have it in other levels. In the 2A book, they have heuristic questions like the one your DH did with your DD that night...8 men to the right, 8 men to the left, how many people are there in the line etc. I went to check it out and ended buying it. You can go look thru the book BUT don't bring money.....Hahaha

visible thinking in mathematics..

As I mention earlier I spent 300$ for P1assesmentbooks... If you add cost of all your assesmentbooks you will end up like that. but end of the year when they get good grades we had to be proud of our selves. :moneyflies: its not lose...its actually gaining..

That question which hubby did with daughter is from 'Excel in Maths' by Fabian Ng.

For daughter's school, I have a strong feel teachers will speed up after CNY...can't be this slow for P1 :roll: . Anyway, I told my kids to buck up after CNY esp P5 son. It's not his school/teachers' style of being this relaxed everyday.

Maybe still honeymoon period for your P1 DD. Things will pick up. As for your P5 DS, well, things will definitely pick up momentum after CNY......Enjoy the 'relaxing' moments while it lasts. :lol:

That question which hubby did with daughter is from 'Excel in Maths' by Fabian Ng.[/quote]I mean \" visible thinking in mathematics\" covers the same type of heuristic questions your DH went thru with your DD. :lol:

Hi Brenda,
Long hours for the week huh....that's like an adult's working hours. Sch's mentality is.... PSLE year so must 'chiong'. If it's any consolation to you, this will prepare your DD for the hectic sec sch life next year. :lol:

Hi Tinkerbelle

Yes. Hopefully they will complete most of the work during the supplementary classes and can have good rest back from school.

Yes, MUST ENJOY.
Since 4 Jan till now, I feel like it's been like a few months...setting work for them after school, marking and coaching younger one in her English.
Next week's schedule very relaxing...bcos yours truly here need to let go some steam.
