Hi, does anyone know why only the first 3 classes in p6 are asked to buy A* math worksheet series to practise in school and not the rest of the classes?

[Layla]

Perhaps its a little more difficult to do. Actually it was recommended for the top class but the school needed more orders for bulk purchase. They were asked to choose between A* and OnSponge.

Any CA n SA for P2?


Thanks!

I just feel the school should b fair to all kids! I believe they are other kids outside these 3 classes who are as good as them in certain subjects. The school is helping the top classes alot more, like homeworks and additional materials. That explains why the school is expecting highly PSLE results from these classes than the rests. Well, I just have to let my girl do more at home.

[Layla]

Of course all schools expects more from top classes. But I don’t think they are necessarily given more materials. The better teachers are also allocated to the weaker classes to help them. Any school would want to pull up their general averages.

On the other hand, A* is more difficult and not suitable for all abilities. They can’t make every one buy. Not every one can appreciate the book, or the additional costs. Those who are keen can buy and do own their own too.

I believe kids should b exposed to all these questions since there are still 8 mths b4 the national exam. I understand one of my girl’s friend from top class complained having so many homeworks. Since my girl does nt have much hw, I am revising it with her at home n have completed onsponge, utm… will go thru A* since just got it today. Guess now parents’ support n help is the most importance.

DD from top class but not too much homework. Still manageable. I dun think their materials are any diff from the other classes.

Her friend complained too much homework maybe bcos she has too many tuitions?
DD only has supp on Tues and bi-cep on Thurs.
How abt ur DD class?

[sweetiepie]

Her friend is in third class. I always fetch her home so will ask her diff btw my girl class n hers. I doubt she has tuitions. If I am not wrong, those students fr 3 classes are good in all 4 subjects. My girl is only strong in math n science. Her math result last year was the same as her friend. Her supp is on tues n thur also.
