I flipped to that Science book under Interactions (P4) and found a question which was almost like duplicated from past year paper.

It's an open-ended question on pulley system. That's another book I will get soon

You mean the Science Process Skills assessment?

Yes. The pulley system as asked in question on magnet...ie how magnetic and non-magnetic materials are separated.
The other 'hot' question often asked is the Maglev train for magnets.

I don't like Casco assessment books. I flipped through this assessment book and found that it's not bad. Questions are quite close to exam papers.

I always like Teachers@Work books - they are very focussed on the details and are very user friendly.

Their English series are very good for kids to work on too.

I was at Popular just now…decided to get the Process Skills for both lower block and upper block. Then hubby saw PSLE past year papers dating back from 2006 to 2010 at $4 each and got all 4 subjects.

I’ll go through the Science to see the questions asked and answer expected.

I just returned from Popular too. Bought Science Process Skills Lower Block and Conquer Science Lower Block.

Now we can safely get SAP for Science and English for kids to work on.

I saw this Science book sold in son's school bookshop last Thur...the lady in charge told me the Science teacher asked her to order the book for the students but I bought it first to have a look and photocopy some pages for son as revision. It's avail for Lower Block too (it was in booklist).

This is the Perfect Match Textbook? Haha, a dear friend passed to me the lower block as a reference to My Pals' Are Here! (MPAH) Textbook :lol:...Did run thru - the notes are more explanatory than MPAH and the pictures are colourful and catchy to the eyes :lol: Guess for Science, there are really many to read & explore :!:

This is not a textbook but for like revision supplement. My son used the lower block (in his booklist then). Not very helpful as compared to Science Process Skills. That one is really an eye-opener.
