For question 44(a) ,where there are 2 blanks for the energy conversion, my DD put kinetic energy in one box and heat and sound energy ( both ) in the other because she was scared the examiners might penalize for only putting one. Is that accepted?

My girl put kinetic energy and heat energy. Your girl got the heat energy correct, perhaps examiner might consider giving her right.

wow, it's time to paint the town RED...celebrate, you have worked hard...

now it's time to play hard.

now that PSLE is over, a lot of P6 parents will be clearing stock, selling textbooks at second hand, to make space available for bookshelves, for Secondary 1 use.

under Garage Sale, many parents clearing stock now

I can see that :rotflmao:

Mine put elastic potential energy to heat and kinetic energy ....

I can see that :rotflmao:[/quote]I am getting ds to sort out his \"mountains\" by subjects. After which I will run through to see what we need to keep. Realised no point keeping as the \"mountains\" I kept from last year's PSLE is still untouched.

Are there any organisation (eg. salvation/ ntuc) that will accept partially used assessment books or top school papers that are not touched? Quite a waste to throw away if it still can be used by others. It not, will sell to garang guni.

NTUC year end will collect textbooks and assessment books for needy. Alternatively, you can put at National Library book exchange corner - I usually put my unwanted books there and interested parties will pick them up.

Thanks. For national library, I supposed they won't want assessment books?

Just recalled how my niece (she sat for PSLE last year) happily passed her partially used assessment books to ds last year. ds is so \"fortunate\" to have dd1 and my niece passing him loads of their unused stuff

This question about organisms surviving and not decomposition. It was similar to one of DS's school questions and he was marked wrong by teacher when he wrote blood contains digested food.
So the main aim of the organisms to survive is to take in nutrients. Without nutrients the organisms cannot survive.

Just to share........

Not sure if your ds school question is \"what is blood made up of or what does blood contain\". Blood does transport food. So it contains food but is not made up of food.

I usually passed on to friends' kids or give to NTUC by year end since I do not pack so early. I have also put assessment books in the book exchange corner occasionally.
