2012 PSLE Discussions and Strategy

[mummy so kiasu]

I did not get the 2012 Prelim papers for my boy. He has too many homework from his school. Can anyone kind enough to share the 4 /5 marks questions from NYPS?

Dear KSP Parents,


Please forgive me if this question has been asked before. There’re 200 over pages… really don’t have time to go through every page.

May I know where can I find info on the approved Chinese digital dictionary for PSLE? There was once that my DS was searching high & low for his Chinese digital dictionary. It was then I realised that I better get 1 extra for him. But he told me his model is outdated thou it’s still accepted for PSLE. So now I need to get another model for him.
May I also know where can I get the dictionary???

My son does past year papers for Math and Science. This way, he is exposed to different ways that questions can be phrased. Just getting handful of this year alone is already tough, it's impossible to do more. But he did practise his school's Math paper from last year...his tutor zapped a copy for him.

Which year does not make much difference. Don't have to be this year paper. The main purpose is to expose the kids to the different type of questions. If your child have not done previous year papers, can just do those in the Internet. No point to buy more papers now. Still have homework & supplementary lessons. Only left two weeks to PSLE written papers. Any idea which website has NYPS 2010 Maths paper?

Both Creative & Besta are acceptable. Check them out at popular bookstore.
