#1 is optional? It wasn't optional this year. Good book to have to teach grammar.
#2 not necessary.
#3 may be needed in art class.
#4 is not needed at P1. kids only need electronic chinese dict from P3 onwards when they start to write chinese compo. Unless the school is going to bring writing chinese compo down to P1. :siao:

Get the dictionary only when it is needed. They may come up with newer model. check out the price also. popular may be cheaper.

Thanks Zeemimi,

The MPH Grammar Workbook is compulsory but the Grammar handbook is under the reference/optional section so wonder is it necessary to get it.

Any idea if we get the whole set directly from Pacific bookstore, will there be any discount given? If there is, then maybe it will be good to get from the bookshop to save the hassle. If there isn't, then I have to make a price comparison.

[zeemimi]

have not heard of any discounts all these years.
