I read already,I think 3 or 4 times,I just skip pages and read.Yah I picked some useful tips.And I read other threads as well.After I read a lot I just overwhelmed and confused which is good and which is bad idea.

No Need to be confused - we have discussed based on our own attempt with those assessment books and of course there will be some who prefer this book and other who prefer another. We are all learning and you just need to read carefully...

smartmummy:

I meant one guide book enough for now(lower level) .May be later will be needed.Now only I browsing more books.Previously, I thouht enough one.Very difficult to take decision.

P3 & P4 is lower block so for this 2 years we will still be using Lower Block Science Assessment & guide books unless you want to read more in advance :? You have already purchase the Ultimate Science Guide right? This is consider by far the more recommended guide book .

Still I don't have no idea.We did more challenging qns in assessment books.My son's school's CA2 paper's qns are very easy.

oh, which bookstore u went to? tot Popular usually has at least 1 book for browsing esp on assessment books? if not u can ask the salesperson to help u.

i rem i read somewhere this book is quite expensive and isn't that good

Hi,
I did post something earlier. This book is expensive and doesn't help the kids.
Too difficult for K2 to read, yet doesn't have sufficient info for P3/4. Lots of pictures, that's about it. I have both the books. Regretted buying them. I was a newbie buying science guides then.

Hi Janet!
I agree with u.The book full of big pictures.Its not worth for $32.We can't take it as a guide book.Thanks.

Lower Block is meant for P3 & P4 and covers 5 major themes - Diversity, Interaction, System, Cycles and Energy.

There is another discussion regarding lower block and upper block in this thread:-

I always wonder why this book so expensive.I just opened wow so many colorful pictures.That's why this book cost so expensive.We can't take it as a guide book as we need more comprehension.

This Science booster is a complete waste of money !!!
Doesn't help for any level at all...what's the point of having all the colourful pictures ? Even if I ask my daughter in P1 to see the book, she doesn't understand.

FAQ will definitely be more helpful...I've stamped 'important' on some answers for son to memorize. He has to...those questions are frequently tested.
