Hi Brenda,

You mentioned going to Popular yesterday. Did you get anything ?

Hi Janet

No. I manage to drop the idea of getting P6 related book like Casio 6B Tutor or Visible 6. I observe those daily maths worksheet given by the school should be sufficient to cover for revision and I am looking forward to get Casio 1A Tutor (Secondary School) after September. :lol:

Thank you for this sweet offer.
'My Pals' English Homework A/B is by Judy Ling/Anne Smith.
'Study Helpers' P2 English Practice is by Jean Chua.

I am thinking of getting the Study Helpers English Practice for P6 but don't know if it follows the latest syllabus. I'll check it out later nearer June.

No the 'Study Helpers' English Practice is different from 'Study Helpers' English Homework.

Study Helpers's Home study book by Loh Tee Yang.

Have a look at this title for vocab. ( You want to know about the vocab and grammar right?) Thermatic vocabulary practice by Rosalind Furgusan, Learners. I'm using Step up grammar for my dd to teach. but using 3 & 4.And Casco primary english. Conquer Grammar to practice....

Hi plum-cake,

:offtopic: My son came back with the CA1 time-table yesterday...have to get new Science assessment books to revise his SA1/2 from what I see :faint:
It's good to test topics in P3 bcos PSLE actually consists of Science taught from P3 onwards. For this subject, I use a lot of assessment books.

I will check out Step up Grammar next time I go to IMM. Thanks.

I am not exposed to science books yet. I thot of getting the conquer science for p2.. which Tinkerbelle quoted. since you need them for SA1/2 you can wait and check @ pop expo sale..

regarding step up grammar..... its child friendly format, explenation. go thru all the levels. cos I bought 3&4 for p2. the books are not aranged according to syllabus. it is going as level 1, 2... by the way its published in 2011. good one. my opinion :lol:

Saw this tite Step Up Grammar...will check it out next time...most prob pretty soon
I've bought many Science assessment books since start of P3...very shocked that I can actually use up so many. Reason is bcos of revision at every level. At CA1, SA1/2 for P3-5, the basic is always tested so that kids do not forget. The other reason is bcos upper block Science (P5-6) is built on foundation. Was just telling hubby I actualy kept up some of the P3 Science assessment books for younger daughter but looks like it's not possible :moneyflies:
Still deciding whether to go to Popular Expo or not.
