Hi Jan....


Its a million $$ worth question. I am still thinking for answer. :frustrated:

[flametree]

i'm currently using practice paper type. I used to buy many more for my older kids but now only focus on these two eng assessment books for my youngest DS. - Top Marks in English (success publication) and classroom eng model paper ( casco).


these two got my choice as the format is similar to my DS's sch paper.

Hi Janet,
I tend to buy separate ones to cater to my DD's weakness - teachers@work: Conquer Vocab and Longman effective grammar. That way, I can focus more on her weaker areas.

In view of impending CA1, I've just bought Oxford Primary Essentials English test papers to give her an overview of what the test paper will look like.

Janet,

I went to popular today, I saw the weekly one. its not that impressive. top of that I am using teachers at work as well. I have vocab, grammer,cloze comprehension. all in one is difficult to maintain but money wise cheap. for seperate title you can do a target drill.

if you have time go to moe website and look for primary english syllabus.
flip through the pages and get only vocab and grammar sec. you'll get the pic of what you need to know for each grade. p1 n p2 conquer titles are having same pattern of questions which you can practice...

Hi, Oxford Primary Essentials English test papers Did you buy that today ?
I saw someone holding that at Toa Payoa. pop.
Ok my dd said there is no english ca1 for them so I didn't buy the test papers yet, for english.

Hi Mummies,

Thanks for all your replies
Guess it would be wiser for me to get a separate book for Grammar, Vocab, Cloze and Comprehension...Conquer is great for Grammar and Vocab. For cloze, I get Casco.

Hi plum-cake,

I bought the Oxford Pri Essential Eng test papers last week but not from Toa Payoh...not so me..keke.

Ya, agree that since your DD is not having Eng Ca1, no need to buy Eng test papers yet. Sounds like a good idea to focus on her Maths CA1 for now. :lol:

Can check out some bargains. Since my daughter will not be having CA/SA, I will control myself buying from too many assessment books for P2.
