Synopsis :
Everyday science is written by a team of experienced and dedicated science teachers who saw the need to make links to what children learn in the classrooms and the real world around them. The book is an attempt to help children make sense of scientific concepts by relating them to their everyday lives. This book follow the adventures of Cartoon characters and is written using simple language pictures so that children will find the explanations and activities easy to follow.

[/quote]You mentioned the following books. Can advise further on:

*EPH Helen Lee's books.
*Everyday Science for Primary Level by Teacher Works

EPH Helen's books - Upper Block New Syllabus Science Bk 1 & 2

Everyday Science - published by Marshall Cavendish. The one Champion quoted is the the one.


[/quote]Is it Teachers@Work or Teachers' Network?

Sorry, think should be Teachers@Work.


Just to add on; realised I have more books which I've omitted :

EPB Pan Pacific Mini Science Encyclopedia

EPH (?) Janet Sim's books - think these are the thin books by topics, in a box file.

Last but definitely not the least, the past years PSLE exam questions. The school advised us to get this from P5. P6's version was mainly used by T to cover in class/supplementary lessons. Hence answer sheets were torn out. Didn't really do much of this with DS (till closer to the exams) as I saw that T was quite detailed in his explanations... sometimes 1 hr only covered 1 or 2 questions...

They may seem like a lot of books for Science - but I started getting them around P5 time, went into overdrive during end P5, bought lots during Popular Fest in Dec. DS is not that interested in Science (only loves Maths), I need to screen through first... My own rationale then was that even if 1 book cost $15, it's still less than 1/2 a tuition lesson, so just buy, buy, buy.... But if after buying and find not useful afterall, I'll just write off and don't waste DS's time...

We did not attend any Intensive PSLE Prep Course for Science but we attended for Maths (during June holidays - daily 2 hrs for 2 weeks). EL we attended a 10 week intensive prep course, around Jul.

Just one last thing, we found having a time-table and sticking to it v.useful. During school holidays, Ds would study more, think 8 hrs in total for the day. But this still left him enough time to play with friends and neighbours + family bonding time.

Jia You everyone! :celebrate:

Champion,


I have (4) & (6).

(4) is a guide book, no questions.
(6) is a question cum summarised notes book.

(4) - you image is upper block, there is a lower block. this is the original format for this guide. Recently (I think last year), there is a single "ultimate science guide".
