I never used electronic dic. before. which one you are using? How do you find it? is that provides any pictures?

I got the Besta 668...hesitated for few weeks before agreeing to it.
So far, I use the Chinese and English dictionary features...not very sure about others. Told my son to make full use of it...sometimes if he doesn't know how the character is pronounced, he will write it on the screen and the electronic dict will then tell you what it is.

sounds great...tempting to buy.... :love: Thanks Janet..[/quote]Sure. I use the dictionary features while the kids use it for some other purpose which I have absolutely no idea.

Since it's eve of CNY, let's not walk into Popular to give ourselves a BREAK from books...bcos I'm expecting a tsunami of homework to come in from next Monday onwards.

Times Bookshop ? How much ?
I have Study Helpers too...bought from Popular last year.

Son's homework really flooding in...not all 4 subjects but 2 or 3 subjects with many questions which require time to think.

Hi plum-cake,
It's great that your DD has grasped the concept of models well. The earlier she picks up this skill, the easier she will find using models for problem sums. Hope you've mastered your models from the FAN book..hehe
