      wgps use the same text books as most primary schools so i dun think that the Math taught are of a different \"standard\".



      fyi, my son's class did not use math text book since P5. Next year (2012) he's P6, he's teacher has asked us not to buy the math text book.

      Since P4, he has been given high order thinking math to pratice on and most of the question in SA1 & SA2 are high order thinking math which you can't find in the text book.

      Hi,

      for higher order thinking maths, did the school order any different assessment book? I heard that some of the good school order on-sponge maths and also A* maths assessment books for their best class.

      what abt west grove?

        Most classes should be using the math text books in the book list with the exception of maybe 2 to 3 classes. My DS’ maths text book for P5 n P6 are stil brand new cos his teacher did not use the text books.

          Just wondering if the teacher did not use text book, then which book he used in class to teach? Did he make use of assessment book to teach?

          Does west grove prepare their own worksheets for maths and science?

                what abt west grove?[/quote]My son is not in the best class, so I've no idea whether the best class or any other class using assessment book. For my son's class, they did not use any assessment book, but his teacher gave them worksheets, which was since P1.

                I only recently heard that West Grove using on-sponge math so I bought 1 P6 book to prepare him. I realised the questions has mostly appeared in my son's P5 worksheets. Recently, while buying school text books at the school, I saw the school start using On-sponge assessment book starting from P3. As for A* assessement book, so far only my P1 daughter's form teacher has asked us to buy for English.
