English Assessment Books

[janet88]

YJL:

For those using Elite for Primary 4 EL, how do u find this assessment book.

For EL assessment, is it better to get those all in one or by specific components? TIA

I found out that Elite series is not suitable for local context...realized some sections in P6 not very useful for my son...since i've bought it, cant possibly waste it...I will get him to practise some areas like MCQ and synthesis. If you see what Elite on the cover stands for, you will know why.

Hi Janet,
I've used this book(P2,P3) with my dd, I am going for P4 one. I am not sure about the P6 one. can you please tell me which part of the book is not for local context? (other than the cover)
I love the contents & vocab.
Thanks.

Good Morning Mummy Janet & plum-cake :grphug:


Think I am the most guilty one :oops: - both DDs' Elite books have been :snooze: :snooze: in my cabinet and hardly used :sad: I can't comment on the contents as if I remember correctly, both have only touched 2 exercises :siam:

Went for the Parent-Teacher-Meeting last Saturday. DD1 P4 FT was very encouraging and positive towards DD1's learning curve. She just mentioned that DD1 needs a little push and help on the comprehension part. As DD1 was sitting besides me. she heard the whole conversation So, yesterday when we were at Popular getting her stationery, she picked up the following book and put into the shopping basket

Am targeting to use this book to guide her along and hopefully she able to grasp the pointers in answering to OE comprehension questions

Dear Champion,

I have this book for comprehension. My DD finds it bit challenging. But good thing is she is referring to the dictionary to understand the meaning of several words. I am not stopping this since it might improve her vocabulary skills. All the best.

That is fast. Your DD is really great. She chooses the comprehension book on her own. Self motivated. Very Good. :salute: her. Learnt from mummy??? Should be la.

My DD always goes to the stationary section whenever I am at the assessment books side. Sigh.

Now the entire attention is turned towards English since we did not have practice during the first term. But my DD is really in holiday mood :imcool:

Hi Chamion.
Thanks, as you know last year I bought all conq series and that idea didn work with us well. so now I am using all in one books. whenever she makes mistakes I note that section and do some target drilling using the seperate title books. Because of the limitted time and sometimes I feel what to teach and where to start.... :frustrated:
But I have zoom in comprehension and cloze by casco . I think we did about 10+ worksheets and It's now one of those books in the shelf. This year I bought quite a lot of casco books n Just Edu.
mine is not an assesment girl... she will wander in the storybook section or stationary section when we go to pop...Keep up the good work!
Thanks again champ.
