Hi plum-cake,

I printed out the grammar items to be taught in Term 1. Her school teacher is going at a reasonable pace. With 2 weeks more before end of term 1, there is still connector and tenses not taught.

Hi Janet,
From where?

Last year I received a chart from the school. It has all the book titles (Stellar system), under each title they have quoted the grammer parts to be taught, outdoor/indoor activity, spelling list and date. but this time I only got list of spelling and dates to be tested. Tenses alone took about 2-3 weeks. I can't remember exactly...other than work sheets they did more exercises in the note book.

This time my dd have show and tell and simple oral test as English Ca1. According to her work sheets I found they have brushed up some p1 grammar and studied alittle deeper in each titles.

Couldn't resist I went to popular last week and saw this cloze book and and bought it. I saw your post and :lol: went to bras b comp. for science books and bought some from the 2nd hand book shop. I got the book The essential parent's guide to primary Maths by Dr Fong Ho Kheong(my Pals).
It was there in one of the book shop for $4 so got it mah..

every time I buy books I just think of you, you are a good person to share. :celebrate:

Thanks for thinking of me ...I have the urge to rush back and post when I see new books (and useful) in Popular.
Which cloze book did you get ?

Saw those items which will be taught in daughter's school website.
But it doesn't show what will be tested for the rest of the year, only Term 1. Tenses alone will take some time to teach bcos true understanding will take a while to absorb...esp for continuous tenses. Daughter will have Show & Tell too, but in Term 2 or 3. This school is rather ON.

Hi Lizuan,
Teachers' Production worksheets are far too easy...honestly I quite regret getting it. But Teachers' Production Handbook for lower primary is good. I personally find it better than Basic English Grammar recommended by daughter's school.

Mastering Cloze not avail for lower primary. If I see it avail for P2, I'll get it for my gal. We are still doing Casco English Grammar/Vocab/Comprehension cloze. A bit slow bcos nights are for learning her EL/CL spelling.

I know Popular doesn't sell Teachers' Production, esp if the vendor is Pacific Bookstores. Sorry I have no idea what the colour of the book (lower primary) is, bcos my friend passed down a photocopied set.
Honestly the Teachers' Production handbook is very good as it has both Grammar & Vocab.
