slmkhoo:

To temper the 'do many, many papers' trend - I'm not sure that doing a lot is necessary the best way to revise for every child. For some, if they are already on top of the work, it's just doing the same thing over and over, and can be a waste of time. For those who make more mistakes, they may just be 'practising their mistakes'. In my opinion, it's better to look at whether real learning and improvement is happening and to focus on particular skills or sections rather than just do lots of papers. Just one or 2 papers per subject per week should be adequate.

I totally agreed :goodpost:

Did zero paper :nailbite:
Only finished up school homework over three weeks

Teachers assigned 4 assessment books as holiday homework. 1 for each subject. No need to complete entire book though. Probably around one-third or more in each book. Already so overwhelmed just doing those 4 books

Only 2 days left for June holiday. The next 3 months will be the most struggle period.

Thought 7 days?
Next 3 months will be intensive...work very hard so as not to have any regrets and 'if only'. All the best. You can do it!

Thank you, Janet..

DS didn't achieve much during this June holiday.. Didn't do any Exam Papers, except those given by teachers as holiday homework..

This week will be back to school everyday, and clearing daily homework (same as 1st week)..
