Study helpers are going off the shelves. so only few tiles per each level is available. I saw P2,3,4,5 english home work, maths challenging problems. english thinking skills one book for p5.

I bought word study 2 workbook from Learners. Because my daughter sometimes get bored when I give the conquer titles again and again. so I buy some easy ones to give her a stress free time...

Hi,
I went IMM Popular yesterday hoping to get the Visible thinking Book 3B but alas the sales told me that the book has not arrived and most probably will be in May/June period ... Yes, agreed that the books were all neatly re-arrange and personally I prefer to shop there as compares with Jurong Point (Although it was 10 mins walk from home) . Also, there wasn't much crowd yesterday so I was able to stand there and browse thru the assessment books. Was comparing the Chinese ones when one gentleman came out and asked,\"May I know what you are checking? Isn't getting this book that comes with the DVD a better deal?\" I explained to him that I was going thru each assessment book's content and how the syllabus is being structured, the questions are being set. He replied:\"WOW! That means you are very free & you are very detailed!\" :lol:

Frankly speaking, I was on leave and was hunting for some more Ass books to prepare for my gal's CA1 and also don't want to get too many \"extra assessment books\" :roll: ...So am able to spend 2 hours there to get the \"ideal\" copy that I needed...Heeee...

Sorry, maybe I am in the wrong forum and write too much :clubmyself:....

Hi Champion,
Which book comes with a DVD ?
It's too late to get an assessment for CA1...with just 2 weeks more. Son's homework is crazy. I'm looking for an Eng assessment book which has everything that will be tested - Grammar, Vocab, Grammar cloze, vocab cloze, comprehension cloze, synthesis, editing, comprehension MCQ and OE. Any recommendations ? Sorry, wrong thread, should have posted this in P5.

Hi Taurus,
Can also consider Fan-Math Heuristic & Model approach OR Fan-math Models as a tool. Both books are by Li Fanglan. I used them for my DD and she really enjoyed learning models with stickers which represents all the bars in model drawing.

Hi Tinkerbelle,

I ask my dd to draw the models... cos to practice drawing, and for exams you have to draw...no stickers :oops:
