      usually one of the subjects will be tough.

      daughter failed her school prelim last year but i consoled her that prelim exams are usually tougher...when she passed her psle, i was so happy i cried.

      it's 3 weeks before psle...time to wind down soon and go easy on the revision. the past 8 months have been mentally and physically exhausting.

      ALL THE BEST FOR next week's LC.

      Thanks Janet88, do agree it's time to go easy & winding down in order not to be over exhausted.. need to make sure DS in good health & tiptop condition.. no eating too much heaty stuff
      I too wish all P6 kids all the best for coming LC & written PSLE.. gambate! :rahrah:

      So fast start to wind down...? We just started ramming up.... 😓

          Hello,

          I am struggling to understand PSLE English materials and strategies so I 😂 hope to have an ex English teacher who can help my son to prepare for the test expecially reading comprehension cloze and composition.
          Pls contact ex teachers to me.
          email : [email protected] ( not welcome tuition centre, but only welcome ex-experienced English teachers)

            Yes, that's why the plan was to ram up this holiday and the next, and start to go easy on the last 1.5 weeks.... :scared:

                  How to Ace your PSLE Listening Comprehension Exams!


                  http://thechalkboardacademy.sg/2017/09/07/how-to-ace-your-psle-listening-comprehension-exams/

                  It’s the listening comprehension examinations on Sept. 15 NEXT FRIDAY!

                  The format for PSLE LC is:
                  – 20 multiple-choice questions to test the pupils’ ability to understand spoken English
                  – Q1 to Q7: graphic questions- questions are read out to pupils
                  – Q8-Q20: questions and options are played by audio CD to the pupils

                  The texts may be in the form of news items, announcements, advertisements, instructions, conversations, telephone conversations, speeches and stories

                  Marks: 20 marks out of the total 200 marks for EL Papers.

                  Basically, PSLE LC is MOE’s way of helping students weaker in the language to get some points on the scoreboard. It is the easiest of all the papers to score! You just have to do it CAREFULLY without making ANY mistakes! Try your BEST to get the full 20 marks!

                  Tips:

                  Once you get the paper, do a quick glance-through to anticipate the questions they will be asking.
                  For questions 1 to 7 (Graphic Questions) make sure you LISTEN for important details such as time, dates, directions, quantities, item names etc. The questions will be asked based on such details.
                  Each passage/text will be read to you TWICE. Do NOT be overconfident. Use this as an opportunity to ensure your answers are correct.
                  Use the first read through to answer, circle the answer on your question paper, then shade the answer in the OAS

                  Use the second read through to double check. Listen VERY intently for the answer to be replayed, check that it is correct, then check that you have shaded the correct oval.

                  The distractors for each question can be VERY tricky. They WILL try to snare you with familiar words that are mentioned in the passage. LISTEN with extreme focus.

                  Of the LAST TWO texts, one of them is usually a Narrative (stories). And they usually have the trickiest questions in the last two passages, especially SUMMARY or INFERENCE types of questions.

                  Once the last passage has been re-read, there will be a short amount of time given (music will be playing) for you to check your answers. PLEASE CHECK YOUR OAS. Make sure you have NOT skipped ANY lines. If you skip just ONE LINE, the rest of your answers will all be WRONG!


                  Remember kids, FOCUS, LISTEN, CHECK! And GOOD LUCK NEXT WEEK!
