Excel in English with Critical Thinking Primary 2

Excel in English with Critical Thinking is written in line with the latest syllabus from Singapore's Ministry of Education. The new syllabus focuses more greatly on training pupils to meet the 21st century challenges. It incorporates more thinking processes such as inference and reflection.

This book helps pupils to 'practise' thinking with exercises regularly infused with inferential questions. With regular practice, pupils should gain mental agility to meet the demands of the new syllabus. Where necessary, a Parental Guide is included for parents to read and explain to their children how an answer is inferred or arrived.

'User-friendly' is the right word to describe this book. Comprehension questions are printed side by side the passage so the pupils can conveniently refer to it for answers. In addition, whilst training pupils to think, it still trains pupils in the fundamentals, such as vocabulary, grammar, editing, and synthesis & transformation.
