With the year-end exams around the corner, these study tools may just be the boost your child needs.
By Felicia Chua
Year-end exams mean hitting the books with fervour, and getting the right supplementary materials for your child during this crucial period can make all the difference. From the right assessment books to nail those tricky questions to essential stationery to fill up exam scripts with answers and workings, be sure your child has them on hand for a smooth-sailing exam season.
Prep with… quality English assessment books
When it comes to vocabulary expansion and review, you won’t go wrong with the Vocabulary MCQs Explained! series. Designed to provide rigorous practice in vocabulary for primary school pupils, this series provides detailed explanations and examples of how words and phrases are applied in sentences. Each book consists of a thematic section of common words and phrases, and a revision section featuring a selection of words that pupils at that level should know to consolidate learning.
Prep with… smart learning tools
If your child needs that extra push and support, Superstar Teacher is a comprehensive online learning platform that uses smart tools to unlock your child’s full potential. We find the On-Demand Homework Help tool particularly useful, where mentors are just a message away to provide real-time answers and explanations to your child’s questions. Your child can also tap into bite-sized videos designed to deliver effective learning in just five minutes a day, as well as the AI-powered Challenge with targeted practice that adapts to individual progress. Better yet, the in-app rewards and gamification elements make learning feel like play and incentivise children to actively build intrinsic motivation.
Prep with… exam-grade stationery
With all the exam prep going on, don’t forget the basics such as a good night’s rest, revision breaks, and most importantly, exam-grade stationery to bring to the exam hall. If we’re talking about a dependable range of stationery designed to support precision, focus, and confidence, then it has to be the STABILO Exam Grade series. We recommend the Exam Kit, which consists of six 2B pencils for smooth, dark strokes and a dust-free eraser, the perfect combo for shading answers on the Optical Answer Sheet (OAS). A ruler and sharpener are also included. Durable, comfortable, and economical, the STABILO Exam Kit is a must-have companion for every exam season.
