Wow!!!these books can get from the library?Which library,thanks for sharing :hugs:

You're most welcome
The last time I borrowed was from Marine Parade Lib. You may check their online catalogue @NLB website as the books may 'move around' from one lib to another.

:thankyou: do i search under science heuristic ?Sometimes just can't search the book.

Thanks for your help :hugs:[/quote]
Try searching for Lisc processes & skills.

Hi G Tan,


May I know what is the difference between concept map & mindmap? I'm a bit confused. Thanks

G Tan:

I also think that concept map may not be veyr useful for some kids, but mindmap is more useful for some kids.

My kids started going to Tinkerlab at upper serangoon this year. This is after their science tutor decided not to continue with them after 1 year. He is a school teacher.


The tutor used to complain about my P3 ds (now p4). So probably a change is good for him as well. My P4 seems to enjoy himself at tinkerlab as they do hands on experiments and teacher taught them to answer exam questions as well. They are also given tasks to explore on the internet on life cycles of insects so that registers better. So he sort of prefers his lessons in tinkerlab and it interesting.

For CA1, he did mid 70’s for science. I thought was not too bad as at least it didn’t drop from P3 and also he has been with tinkerlab for coming to 1 term only. Hopefully he will benefit more as time passes by and we can see that reflected in the results.

I think mind map is more helpful than concept maps. Concept map just involved words linking all the concepts together.. Mind map is more visual in the sense that u can include drawings and diagrams to make a child understand better.
