Hey, I just saw this chapter on 'Words of Motions of Animals' and 'Words and Characteristics of Animals' in this book. 'The New Student's Companion' for Upper primary schools.
Looks like I can just focus on son's compo book at Popular later.

Hi plum-cake,

Thanks for uploading the cover as well.
Appreciate.

I went to Popular IMM after picking kids from school…it was closed for stock take today until 6pm. Since I was desperate to get compo reference books, I went back to IMM after dinner. Saw the First Aid Eng book you posted. Under secondary section.

My DS2 (will be 6 in July 2011) has been learning the starter words from the MOE 2001 Eng Syllabus. I was wondering if there are any sites with more vocab lists for P1 and P2? If anyone has a link, can you respond to this post, please?

HI Mummies,

EL worksheets just returned for parents to sign...Synthesis & Transformation was taught using 'because' :shock: Tenses like present, past, continuous not taught yet.

Principal advised parents in letter to revise what has been taught in Term 1. For Term 2, the girls will be taught to write a sentence using the helping words for 6 separate pictures.

My daughter is in CHIJ Toa Payoh.
Actually the English is all the basic stuff...teaching stuff like articles, pronouns, verb +be which required me to refer to the good old textbook to find out exactly what they actually are.

Hi plum-cake,
I'll be reinforcing what teacher taught in Term 1...she can forget topics like articles, pronouns as well as punctuation and proper nouns. My gal can forget capital letters and mistake a question for a sentence sometimes.
