fernvale:
from june onwards, most schools will start to push. that is the time to monitor your children's behavior.janet88:
to the kids, guide = nag. it's january....8 months to psle, not long but not short either. ca1 should be after CNY...so it's revision time.
so so agree! guide = nag! I agree 8 months is not long, nor is it short. My other concern would be burnout before the actual if revision to start now. All I have been asking him to do is to read the model compo books as well as start his topical assessment book.
prelims are usually harder than psle...revise and take prelims as a form of revision but don't get burnt out.
save the energy for the BIG PICTURE ie psle.
during this period, revise lower block science. finish p6 topics by end may so that june can be spent revising. -

my 2 kids were always dreaming when they were sitting for psle...they always feel there is plenty of time before psle.

last year, i chopped down many trees by printing out weekly timetables...they had to be flexible because of supplementary lessons, CCAs etc. i am adamant daughter followed the work assigned after getting school hw done. because she is forgetful, i had to revise different topics of lower block and upper block on different days. -
Quite shocked that P6 workload has increased tremendously till we have no time to do assessment books
Last year no supplementary classes and not much homework, still can do some assessment books. Guess have to jump straight to practise on past year papers. -

Maybe assessment books bought already
But then for me, I would love the teachers to keep them occupied. But my dd, already got complaints for not doing the (not much) hw and also never bring hw home to do
hope you parents dont mind me taking part in this thread as I m someone who needs constant shocks. -

syllabus not completed, how to go straight into past year exam papers? furthermore, some schools set questions so tough that it is demoralizing. schools tend to give a lot of homework...sometimes, parents have to monitor their kids and whether the workload is too heavy. it's only january. at the rate the school pushes, the child will be burnt out before prelims.Quite shocked that P6 workload has increased tremendously till we have no time to do assessment books

I feel so insecure without seeing them do assessment books on a regular basis. Just do school homework, will it be enough? -

Bought already. Not enough, thinking of buying somemore. :rotflmao:lee_yl:
