Hi Mummies,

If you want to get the 4 for $10 books, do call b4 going down...reserve the books first. If not bcos I have P5 Grammar & Vocab, I would get that bundle set.

I saw the offer at United Sq Popular with only the Grammer & Vocab books, couldn't find the Chinese and Maths one. It seemed to be a great deal not to be missed and I thought hard for quite a while before I decided against buying as my DS may not have the time to do them... I have many 'white elephants' at home alredi :oops:

I bought P2 Grammar, Vocab, Maths, P3 Grammar, Vocab, Maths and P6 Grammar & Vocab...2 sets for $20. Didn't get the Chinese as it's not very current.

I get this title for 好词好句 ‘The Essential Chinese Composition Guidebook for Primary Students'...by Victoria Publications.

Hi Janet & teh_oh,
I run thru DD1 Compo write-out - although CL teacher's comment is that she writes fluently and content is sufficient but somehow she only manage to get 15/20 for the 4 Compos that since Term 1. Hope to brush up her grammar and vocabulary so grab the following 2 books this late afternoon and hope she can pick up some skills to gain more marks in the coming SA1 Paper 1.

Hi Champion,

You are becoming a pro uploading pictures of books…thanks for doing so. It’s really easier for parents to search for the book in Popular knowing what it looks like.

小学生作文好帮手：好词好句 this one is useful and I try to pick out some easier ones for son to remember and hopefully use them.

Hi Janet,

Thanks for the compliment - I also pick up the tips from you and so once I get the title I will try to upload here to share with all parents.

There are really too many assessment books, guide books - even many different publishers out in the market. So since we can have this platform to share the infos, I am glad to do by uploading the pictures :celebrate: .

Janet, did you know that the Ghim Moh book shop is closing?

Felt sad. Will go down one last time again.

They are closing down tmr....

Closing down ? Serious ? OMG :shock: that is so surprising.
Mummies, if you want to get the Grammar guide by Teachers' Production (Upper and Lower primary), better do so asap.

Janet,

Comparing Grammar guide (Teachers' Production) vs EPH's grammar quick revision (which Champion had uploaded the pic at link below), which is better?

Hi teh_oh,
We both are \"hardworking\" parents trying to have our kids to excel in their school work :celebrate:. Because Paper 1 is 20% for the SA1 CL paper, so I just hope at this \"last minute rush\" - I can do what I can to help her to score better :D....

Again, I have to say I no good in teaching Composition writing too and I am one that not in favor to check and correct the content of a child's work. My DD1 has being bringing EL & CL Compo back to do as homework because teachers say,\" Not enough time to do in class!\" I let her 自由发挥 and she only comes to me occasionally when she does not know how to write a certain Chinese Character :lol:

Just feel that we parents this generation really 辛苦与用功哟!

Teachers' Production is much better, esp for lower primary.
