I find it very useful when preparing my son for his CA or SA. So maybe in this week, I want him to revise on tian xie han zi, I would then turn to the section and ask him to finish all the questions on tian xie han zi. If he can do all the questions in this section, then I know he should be ok in tian xie han zi. Then I will move to the next component, say, word arranging. Hope you can understand what I am tying to say. Do take a look at this book when you visit popular the next time.

Hi Champion,
I used to buy the above book.
I agree with PiggyLalala that it is useful for CA/SA preparations and as a supplement book to work on weak areas of Paper 2.
But it is not user-friendly for weekly/topical revision.
CJust my opinion, as different strokes for different folks.

I normally do not ask my son to do the assessment books on a weekly basis. Rather, as a last min and not so diligent mom, I will prepare him maybe just a few weeks before CA or SA. By then he would have covered a few ke wen in the school. So what I will do is: I will ask my son to do only the components that will be tested in the CA or SA. If my son can do the component on han yu pin yin, then i know i can move on to other components. If the assessment is grouped on ke wen, to check on my son's han yu pin yin, I need him to go to ke wen 1, do the component on han yu pin yin and then go to ke wen 2 and look for the han yu pin yin again, etc. Marking will then take a longer time as you have to look for the correct component on each ke wen.

Totally agree with teh_oh. This book is not user-friendly for those who do weekly revision with the child as the questions are first grouped according to its type then the ke wen.

She chose the above assessment book when we were surfing the website and said she preferred to do \"Exam Format\" for this term before SA2 ....

Hi sista,

Think this is a good idea for working directly in \"Exam\" foramt style if the school has covered them sufficient practice on every topics that had learnt.

:salute: to your DD1! :rahrah:

:thankyou: Poppy & Brenda for the encouragement!


FOr DD1, Mother Tongue is her strongest subject so I will just leave it to her to do her own daily revision....Just have to go through with her those 生字 & 词语 so to reinforce what T has taught in school

Hi sista,

Glad to hear that.

In this case, think she can choose to spend more time on reading of CL story book or focus in other subjects that she think is needed!

Hi sleepy,
I think this publication is not really new. I saw it previously, but did not buy it because the print-font is quite small.

Hi Mummies,

I happened to see this CL Compo book for P3/4...but waiting for P1/2 to view content. https://www.popular.com.sg/jsp/product/product_detail.jsp?vca001=260&vpd001=95980

Bought these 2 titles for my son and found them useful...maybe you would like to take a look during BookFest.

This is not a new title...been around since my son was in P1. Didn't get anymore titles from this author bcos it's rather difficult. No point getting too tough ones since it's demoralizing.
