Good point about deciding on the buy list first. Actually I'm looking at the separate threads on assessment books but they are kinda overwhelming

Yeah, I definitely find them too overwhelming... that's why I'm posting this thread in hope to get information the easy way out

You are right :yikes:
i didn't realised it was so tough buying assement books i really need it lol
spent the whole evening standing and browsing, at the end of the day, i can't really tell what is good and what is not... everything seem kind of different when i was a kid..

I was at bookfest at 130pm...crowd wise, it was bearable as compared to last year when I was there in the evening :faint: Most of the crowd was at 'assessment book' section.

Have to be careful when buying assessment now...but the 4 for $9.90 titles are not bad...I mean not the clearance type. Also bought a title going for $2.90. That was

Got hubby to take leave to look after the kids and provide 'coolie' service. Reminded him again & again to apply leave. How else am I going to lug files, notice board and bags of assessment books home ?

parents with daughters heading for Haig Girls P1 may take note.


Heuristics (Maths) is usually taught in most SG schools in P2. however, there are minority schools that proceed to give an early head start in P1.

Haig Girls primary school request 2012 P1 intake cohort pupils to buy Li Fanglan (stated inside their P1 booklist) -
\"Primary 1 Process Skills In Problem Solving, Level 1\" :-
