sigh....talking about the topical test.....my son's class

had a mock test y'day and the topical test would be
something like that! it had a combination of MCQ, a few
question & answer type of qns & finally the PROBLEM
sums :!: ....can't imagine why P1s got problem sum when
many of them still struggling to read well at the 1st term
.....sigh....
and the best thing is..... my son's class had a girl
who had FULL marks :!: for that test; & that
test was not easy for a P1 1st termer standard I feel.

hey baby2momma, how do you get to know the marks of mock test ? I heard nothing from my girl abt the mock test and I still do not know her marks of maths topical test, do you ?

hi mvelle09,

they had that mock test on 2nd Feb and it was marked & passed back
to them on 3rd Feb; a day before the actual topical test 4th Feb.
And nope, they hv not gotten back the marks for the topical test yet…

i think tat mock test was something to ‘pre-empt’ the kids how the actual maths test wld be like… n i hear fm my kiddo tat the teacher handed back the marked papers for the mock test from the highest marks to the lowest…

if u check their maths file (yellow coloured folder thingy), the mock test papers should be there…

Yeap. Found it thanks! I must agree that it is not an easy paper to score full marks with some tricky questions.

Roaring & Prosperous Chinese New Year

I did not see any mock test paper but I was very shock when I received the topical test paper, my son only scored 17/25. How about your kid? I not really nagged my boy for the marks and I think as a parent we have to responsible for it also.

[mvelle09]

My girl did quite well, both mock 20/20 and topical test 25/25. She copes well in maths mainly because she picks up the maths concept from her MPM lessons. But a single test can’t really judge a kid’s learning ability, it is still too early to tell as kids are still trying to adjust to primary routine. [/img]

Well done! last 2 days i went through the topical test and realized that my son cannot scored well because of the careless mistakes and also did not read the questions properly. I think maybe is lack of practices. In fact, we teach him daily at home and already beyond the syllabus, however i think nowadays the maths is different with our time, i think i must emphases on "reading questions"

[mvelle09]

Kids like to finish everything as quickly as possible hence taught my girl to apply 3 steps routine to minimise careless mistakes :-

1. Check !! Make sure there are no questions with blank in answer columns.
2. Read questions carefully and check the answer
3. Smile and hand over paper to teacher :lol:

Hi DLS Mummies out there,


Need some :?: help regarding change of schoolbus. My gal is in P2 this year. We have decided to put her in a daycare where there are teachers to help & supervise her with her work. However, the daycare is at Blk 295 CCK Ave 2. Her current schoolbus doesn't travel that way. Not sure how to find out what is the schoolbus that goes that way.

If any mummies out there is staying in CCK Ave 2, pls let me know. Or if you can give me the bus driver's number would even be better.

Cheers!
