Hi plum-cake,

I hope the $$$ from Budget 2011 comes earlier...so that I can buy assessment books without waiting for 20%...spent quite a lot on son's Science reference last Dec..also need to replendish the Science assessment books for his SA1/2.

A number of forum mummies told me there isn't much time in P6, so I'm controlling not getting too many. Now that I've got Visible Thinking P6, should be sufficient

ye I'll get my TV lice. money back :lol: visible thinking is good but not much questions to practice. I am not sure abt p6... I saw maths drills.. more pages to practice( I didn't buy)..and also andrew er's worksheets...

Hi plum-cake,

Just want to check with you regarding Maths456.
Is the title ‘Primary 2 Topic By Topic Mathematics Worksheets With Challenging Problems From Top Primary Schools’ by Tan B M ? If it is,
is this title meant for P2 level…and would you recommend this one or ‘Primary 2 Fan-Maths I-Excel Model As A Tool’ by Li Fanglan ?

My son P2 Maths teacher giving out muiltiplication/division problem sums for homework and wonder if it's normal or just super 'on' teacher.. ..thanks

:celebrate:

No the teacher 'ON', but the school is ON.
After hearing what my hubby told me about P1 having to learn Models, nothing is surprising to me now. It's like P3 brought forward to P1.

Thanks for prompt reply janet_lee88.. ...
:faint:.. in anticipating of more .. ..

Hi plum-cake,

I don't mind either Simon Eio or Li Fanglan for models...saw a new 'look' for her assessment book. My son was taught models only at p3 and that is really too late...seem to see p2/3 syllabus brought forward to p1. Whole year nothing but assessment books, really sian.

Plum-cake,
My ks hubby bought the entire set of Fan-maths from Popular last year...bcos there was 25% discount :faint: I was asking him if there was a need to get all since there is no CA/SA.
