Hi plum cake,

Is the clearance sale still going on at JE MRT ?

Janet,
The JE Popular Clearance Sale is still on....from 5th Feb to 14th Feb. They have a 5 for $5 promo for English, Chinese & assessment books but not sure if there are any terms & conditions. Check this link out:

Ya, hard to find parking there. Might be easier to take the MRT. That way, you won't be tempted to buy too many assessment books to lug around..

Not to worry, won't be a waste...can always use those books for revision & expose your DD to a variety of questions to prepare for CA1..

Ha Ha. Most important is you enjoy the process. Like now I only left with few months to enjoy shopping for P6 and next year would be another ball game. Have to say good-bye primary school books lah

woooo… so glad that I read about the JE Popular Clearance Sale now. It is so tempting to buy story books and assessment books. Think I should drop by later since going over to my mum’s place which is around the area.

I decided not to go to Clearance Sale. Will control my buying of assessment books for P2...since there is no CA or SA. For Eng, I'll get a Vocab, Grammar, Comprehension and Composition. Maybe throw in a 'English Weekly'. For Maths, maybe one on Models, Weekly and slightly more challenging one.

Really scared of assessment books.

Janet Dear,,
your dd is in p1 right. so don't buy anything for P2. new good ones can pop up in november. EPH's weekley for english is also good accoding to popular staff. new 2010/11 revised edition. If you are willing to pay then can consider \"Visible Thinking\". :lol: rather than buying unwanted stuff because its cheap.

EPH's Weekly has a new 'image'...hahaha. It's 2-in-1 rather than split into A and B. P1/2 is by Naaz Thaker. Still considering between 'Visible Thinking' or 'Shaping Maths'. Henry Lee has revamped his 'Weekly' too...also 2-in-1.

I'm getting at most 1 or 2 titles for P2. Without CA or SA, there's no point getting so many. I really pity the kids today, there is no childhood at all, esp with 2x supplementary after school. Thank goodness his school only started the supp this year at P5 or it would have been worse.
