Science Guide Books

Hi


I’m saw this Science guidebook, "Your Companion To Science: A Complete Guide To PSLE" by Fairfield Book Publishers. It stated that it based on the latest syllabus and secondly, it’s one book with lower and upper block. Anyone bought this? Is it good/sufficient?

TIA

There is a new and super thick power packed assessment book on Upper Block Science by Renee Chong, EPH and I am getting that for all our PSLE students to practise for revision. $13.90 so cost around $10.40 after 25% bulk discount at Popular.

Other than the power-pack science assessment book recommended by James, any other recommended Science assessment book for upper block (P5-P6)? I was planning to get 2 Sci assessment books to last kid thru’ from P5- P6. Thanks

I think CASCO's P6 book is good, they test on forces in the form of a rolling wheel's direction of friction, and the gravitional acceleration of objects with different masses with or without air resistance.

The emphasis is going to be on process skills for the new science syllabus. So go get these CASCO books to practise;

Classroom Science Process Skills New Syllabus Upper Block Book 1(P5) and Book 2 (P6), $8.95 each. Maybe cheaper at Popular Bookfair or with 20% discount coupon.

James, you only take PSLE students ? Do you have P4,P5 students ? Any comments about CASCO lower block science workbooks ?

I teach only P5/P6 students (other levels are covered by other specialists) because the work is now tougher and some questions/concepts are from O Levels Pure science and Sec Maths (due partly to use of calculator). Of course I also teach O levels and IP students that's why I know these are Upper sec level questions/concepts.

Generally the new syllabus CASCO Books (both Upper block and Lower block) are up-to-date and suitable for students.

Noted, James. Thank you for your response.

Did you also, write any assessment or test books ?
