Mama Leong:
I also feel the Challenging Maths 4 in 1 is a lousy assmt book. Super longwinded and the question wasnt even the type which will come out in the exam.
most questions are 2-step questions. english standard have to be there before the kid knows what the question is asking for. maybe that's why it is 'Challenging'.

So is challenging maths a good(challenging) book??[/quote]it has mostly 'higher thinking' questions (2 steps questions even in MCQs). so if your kid is bored with regular math assessment, this book can be used as an 'enrichment' book. more for kids who are really interested in math, and not those who are doing assessment to ace the exams. regular kids (i mean those who does not particularly like math) who needs assessment books to reinforce lessons or maintain practice, may feel demoralised using it. i used that book in the beginning of the year and my boy was turned of math instantly. i switch to more regular assessment books and he did fine. with his concepts in place, then i use the book (cos already buy already what...) to see if he really understand the concepts well. when he figured out the answers to the more challenging questions, it made him happy.jedamum wrote:

hi, anyone has recommendation for P4 English comprehension assessment book. I have tried Casco comprehension this year for my DD in P3, the question format seems different from the school (not sure how to explain here). I am also looking for a Transformation/Synthesis assessment book, I have seen one from Teachers work, any recommendation ? Thanks.
