Hi mother777

I thk the book only comes in P4 level for now (didnt see any levels around) but I guess no harm getting for your DD if u want to.

Ok let me quickly dash into popular tonight and get this book..

:thankyou:

By the way, someone shared at BOOKFAIR thread that Popular is having sale at Expo next week 28/3-31/3. I checked with the Popular staff, they said members dont hv additional discount (really? :skeptical:) and most of the items are \"offer items\".

The staff are not v sure abt discounts on assessment books but i guess if they do have, probably max 20% off.

The popular in bukit panjang plaza carries a lot of books. In fact the new syllabus English books are in popular now. I bought one P4 book yesterday. The same one which Ilovechubby posted. Other levels I'm not sure. No harm getting P4 since ur DS is in P3 this year.

I find that Jurong point popular will have most of the books you need.

But if the popular you go to does not have a particular book,you can request the staff to get the book transferred from other popular branches. It will take about 1 week to get the book.

Not sure if its convenient for you, personally i find Bras Basah and Toa Payoh branches have pretty wide range... I always manage to find books there that i cannot find in other smaller ones like United Sq, Thomson, AMK, Bishan etc.

Just came across a new EL assessment book by CASCO that covers the new PSLE syllabus :

Sneak peeks of the stimulus-based conversation and continuous writing pages:

At least this book gives me, someone who is pretty clueless of the new changes (DS's school has not given any briefing to the parents), an overview of how the new exam format will be like.
Guess there will be more such assessment books coming up...

Thank you for sharing this info. :salute:

My DD benefited a lot (esp. for oral component) by using this book. Yet to touch the comprehension and other sections. Quite a good book.
