2013 PSLE Discussions and Strategy

EthanEthan:
Science is normally not the killer paper. It's just the way the kids have to answer the questions. Key words, etc. It can be a easy paper but if you don't answer the way it is required, you lose marks. :faint:Looks like the PSLE this year have been easy so far.....
Really seems like MOE is lowering the difficulty for PSLE. Lets see if Science is easy as well to conifirm this perception.
If this is the trend of PSLE going forwards, I will need to train DS to be less careless as this will be v important for easy papers -
I ask my dd about this girl from her who is an Indonesian Chinese. She came to Singapore in P4 and chose to do MT instead of Malay, even though she doesn’t learn it in her home country.
She struggles with the language, sometimes passing, sometimes failing. I wanted to encourage her so every time I see her, I will tell her that she is a very brave girl and that she has a very forward-looking mummy.
My dd says this girl found the paper challenging but will be able to pass. -
Yes yes celebration starts fm 10am tomorrow. But in a couple of hrs starts his last p6 sci tuition.

My DS memorized so many pages of oliverupadu and yet two unfamiliar words were tested.

Yup, you are so right! I told my dd that Sci looks deceptively ez but to come up with the right key words will be the challenging part. -

Hahaha... DS's class is using Edmodo. If there is no chit chatting at Edmodo, it means the children are studying so DS can't tell me otherwise
dd still has HCL paper but she already has plans on what to do on wednesday.ngl2010:
DS said 21 hours to freedom
2 of his friends are not going to study today because they think all papers are easy :faint: . They are the more playful ones (one of them slept during English and Maths papers).
Over the weekends, she \"claimed\" that she was the only one who is still working hard among her friends as they were already watching tv prog and enjoying themselves while we didn't allow her to relax too much.

Yesterday, I was at the playground with my kids. I met the boy whom my kids regularly plays with. I wished him all the very best for his exams and reminded him to sleep early. He beamed and told me ‘Auntie, this time I think I can pass’. He is an average performer in school but did badly for his prelims. His family can’t afford tuition and he is raised by his grandmother who only speaks dialect.
So I am really very very glad PSLE has not been daunting for many kids. -
Aww!! Jz to hear the words of hope from the child is jz wonderful. I am happy for him.

. My heart always goes out to the under-privileged pupils. Yes, moe and seab are moving towards the right direction. :salute:
