Checking in. I am a first time PSLE mum. DD taking PSLE next year. Hope to learn from everyone here.

BTW, I am working full time. Many of my colleagues took no pay or half pay during their children PSLE year. Is this necessary? Any full time working mother here who survived PSLE year without making significant changes to work arrangement?

May I know one day 1 topic is to cover how much? read from 1 revision book only or include past year papers?

MKS,

Do topical revision during this Nov/Dec first. Don't scare yr gal with exam papers except if u buy the 2017 P5 Chinese exam papers for more 理解问答 & 便条 practices. If u start P6 exam practice before term starts, it might create a feeling of despair & cause a feeling that PSLE will be very tough for them.

Do it incrementally & issue CA1 exam papers only 1/2 weeks before & quickly close gaps for exams. Watch out how much yr child can handle & just add a notch more not too much. Keep the balance just taut & don't burn out yr dear child. But a little harder is OK as it's like exercising our muscles - no weight no gain in brain muscle. (Hee, hee... rhymes?)

Do major focus work during June so hv continuous focus. Build momentum fr there all the way till Prelims. After you're done with the stack of SA2 papers for Prelim, you can order the P6 Prelim exam papers (2017 not the 2016) to align yr child's std to other schools. That shld be available fr jeremyexampapers by early Sept.

Phew! I'm like reliving PSLE all over again! :scared:

Esteema, you mummies so systematic de :udawoman: and :thankyou:

@sky minecrafter Okay, will do that. Thanks!

@melodytweety, et al. like our ksps have shared... If you were to revise SC, you may wanna make mind map-ish summary notes for quick revision later when you need to? Say Water - characteristics of the 3 states, main processes like Boiling vs Evaporation, Condensation.

Thank you MKS. We’re just grateful & thankful. Now waiting excitedly for next phase for sec sch life. As usual, DS kept busy with Coding, outdoor activities and started browsing thro sec 1 books.


Must keep mind working at minimal level & thankful Coding is a constructive way to keep going. O’wise play since Oct completion of PSLE will be hard 3 months later to jack up engine when sec 1 starts.

coaching and preparing kids for psle is indeed a noble thing to do...there are first time parents who are at a loss.
