there is a difference between primary 6 and psle assessment books.
primary 6 assessment books for chinese consist only of 12 chapters from textbook, while psle ones will cover more...taught from p4 up to current.

Hi,

I quite like those assessment bks by Teachers at Work. Also good are those math bks by Fan.

Other than these 2, past yr prelim papers by top schools are a must for all my kids. :hugs:

Those PSLE assessment books for chinese can be used from June...in the meantime, you can get one for primary 6 bcos there is CA1/SA1. PSLE assessment can be used for English.

Oh that can b very stressful. However stressed we r, we muz remember not to impose it on our kids. Anyway I feel that consistent revision will definitely help to ease the stress. All the best for the upcoming year. The journey may not be smooth but every effort put in by the kid is definitely commendable

Guess he has no stress at all as he can still sing to me que sera whenever i ask him u not planing to revise isit :yikes: :yikes:

Proud to say hes a very smart boy since pri 1 non tuition non enrichment non stress environment but hes very self motivated, is just i feel hes been slacking abit this year but his teachers did tell me with his heck care attitude and still able to score what he did is very good already, just got to push him slightly for next year sure to see him score well.

I am going to play the bad guy whereas his godparents will be playing the good guys, cash carrot has already been dangled out and can say is quite a substantial sum a low 4 figure if he scores at least 250 abv next yr.

We have 3 snakes next yr taking the psle and hes the only boy do not want him to be at the bottom at least in the middle.

Now wondering should i put him in tution classes???

Now wondering should i put him in tution classes???[/quote]If he is a self motivated & diligent boy then he should be fine. Whether tuition is necessary, it has to depend on his P5 results & learning attitude.P5 standard is similar to P6 & most schools' standard tends to be higher than PSLE.

Moreover, there is already a big cash carrot dangling out there. \"Mummy on a budget\", your budget refers to the cash carrot? Btw, which is your first choice school? RI, HCI or ACS? All the best! :rahrah:
