English Assessment Books

[Lbetter]

Hi RGAV


I think it’s a good idea to let kids reading aloud for half an hour at least everyday. Do you think the composition samples are good choice for them to read aloud? Or do you have any other recommendation? Thanks a lot!

Hi champion,

I bought 'master oral' published by marshall cavendish to prepare my son for his oral. If you ask school teachers if they can recommend any guide/assessment books, they will tell you they are NOT allowed to recommend. So can only depend on my kids to tell me. My daughter told me her teacher used \"conquer vocabulary\" during remedial.

Chanced upon \"Master Oral\" by chance. It was compiled by teachers of white sands pri. What I like is the description of the \"wrong doings\" on separate pages and not altogether in one big paragraph...in my opinion, it's not dry. Not asking for advertisement fees. :evil:

Hi LBetter,

Yes reading good compo samples can be included in the reading list. It can be a little boring after a while, so let them read their favourite stories as well.

HI Parents,

My neighbour just passed me all the guide/assessment books as son has completed PSLE. There is a ‘Synthesis & Transformation’ for upper primary. Published by Ace…similar to the one I bought for Science Explorer. I don’t know where it can be bought though…maybe can call up Ace to enquire. 6483-6088. Blk 5 Ang Mo Kio Industrial Park.

Hi Champion,


Bought this recently. (but alas, didn't see the P6 version, so end up bought the P5)

There is a mediocre sample as well as improved version.
My kids' compo are similar to the mediocre standard, so I let them read both and compare. Hopefully, after reading the more interesting version, it will trigger them to want to put in more effort to write better.
