Is it true that starting 2017 PSLE will adopt the new grading system and no longer T-score? I was told by my friend who is a teacher.
So all our piglets will be using the new system. -

They are conducted by third party companies, using the cc premises. You can find check out the PA website to see the available workshops across the island. Some schools also invite vendors in to conduct holiday science programmes during school holidays.Thanks ammonite! I'm new to all these, been in my own world all these while....
Do CC actually conduct suchworkshops? Never even realise that!
The core material itself is not difficult and many things can be done at home. Where most kids need more guidance is how to answer in a scientific manner or/and reading charts etc. -

You can try Just Education. They have experiments occasionally. But when you ask them who are their teachers for next year, they can't tell you.Hi
May I know which science enrichment course include doing science experiment?
I have yet to come across a science enrichment centre that comes with a science lab? Thanks.
Usually I go for those centres that I know who will be the teachers teaching. -

Really? I just hope they are not the first batch. Otherwise really become Guinea 'Pigs'!

First batch may be those born in 2005 taking new PSLE Science syllabus being affected. They could be the guinea pigs.
Those born in 2006 are the first batch to take the new PSLE Math syllabus. -

What kind of experiments are we looking at for primary science level?
Can google from pinterest about science experiments to do at home. -

My DS is asking to go without SC enrichment class and wants me to trust him that he will meet my 'expectation'. So, tentatively not signing up any for him. Let him take charge. :nailbite:
-Decision-making. Leave that decision-making to your child. Why do I say that? Remember my dd has P3 friends? They revealed to me that their parents were the one to decide which centres they go to and they have no say. I feel that it is very important to provide a choice for the children to choose from your list of shortlisted enrichment centres. Firstly, your child gains an opportunity to practise for Stimulus-based Conversation on which centre she likes to go to and why? Secondly, your child is the one that is learning at that centre, not the parents. That's why I stressed that the budget is a very important factor. Let the child have a choice where she would like to go for Science enrichment. If it is possible, get the child to talk to the potential teacher that will be teaching your child. If the teacher is proactive, she will be the one to request to speak to your child to find out more about your child and see if this partnership of teaching and learning will work out or not?
