Conquer Math and Onsponge Math the same? Is topic by topic or only problem sums? My girl hates Fabian Ng book but i think is quite good.

I need to get a Math assessment for 2 step problem sums...prob is I don't know anything about Maths now...having a headache deciding which title to get :scratchhead:

Janet, agree. Too many assessment books in mkt now. I found Fabian ng problem sums for p2 quite good.

Thanks Village Girl. I am in charge of getting assessment books but hands-off Maths and have no idea about this subject which looks like Greek to me. Will ask hubby to go through Fabian Ng.

Thanks Janet/ Champion…


my girl is also having oral exams starting from mon-wed. and she got EL compo on Friday.

Janet, Fabian Ng is ok I have that. wanted to buy for P3 as well but that one is very thick. so thinking of switching to Andrew ER/word prob by EPb. Fabian NG book got 2 step word probs.

Thanks for the Vit C advice…

Kindly advise the title by Fabian Ng. It's not the super thick PSP, I hope ?
That book is scary :nailbite:

I've been pumping my kids with Vitamin C of late :xedfingers:

Andrew ER's which title? Because Andrew ER's worksheet works is very thick. I bought that this yr but couldn finish it. but Fabian's PSP I manage to do more. but a bit challenging for my girl.(P2).

For next yr,P3 Fabian's PSP is thicker than Andrew ER's Problem Sums. I don want to get a thicker challenging book for her... If my dd spend more time on one Q then I can't teach her other subjects. we will end up one Q per day.
then no point of getting a fat book If she can't finish it. :oops:

both the books are good. contents are good!

I agree with all that Andrew Er & Fabian Ng books are the more popular and challenging ones among all other Maths Assessment Books


I switched between the 2 authors' ones when DD1 was in P1 & P2 and it really was a struggle to both she & me :imdrowning: :imdrowning:

So, for this year - I did not buy any of the 2 author's books ...got a few other titles but after the \"experiment\" coming to the end of the year, I will recommend the following one which in my own opinion, challenging but yet encourage pupil to look at problems differently. In a way it motivates my girl (and myself as I am learning too! ) to look beyond.

Primary 3 Challenging Maths (New Syllabus) by Sandhya Sundar, publisher - EPH.
