          congrats leeyl for having another psle done 😄



          Lee_yl....envious of you ah. No more PSLE liao. 🕺 :rahrah:

          Woke up this morning, wa, the feeling was really different! Like “released from jail” 😂

          @MKS, next year will be your turn and I will drop by your thread to give you and your DD1 a morale boost!

          @LC, you have been upgraded to an experienced PSLE mum now! 😂
          Your 2nd PSLE won’t be as stressful as a newbie mum’s.

            Lee_yl,


            You're double PSLE major grad yourself yah? :salute:

            LC hv to manage her DS2 based on the new alternate-year exams system. Yes, at least she's now got plenty of experience with prepping her DS2 for DSA. I believe her younger boy will be emotionally more resilient, I hope. :xedfingers:

            She'll certainly be wiser for this year's experience. I'll consult her for my nephew then.

                Lee_yl, agreed with you. Being an ex-PSLE mum does give me an idea of what to expect. But then hor as what Estée said on the new PSLE system totally throw me back to square one. Don’t know what the new system may hold. Worse if there is new changes to the DSA. :sad: one step at a time.


                MKS, Jia you!! We are here to give tips. Will go to your thread.

                  There was one question that my girl and her friend got different answers. The MCQ question was about three solids X, Y, Z.

                  Two statements were given:
                  A. The material making solids X and Y is the same
                  B. The materials making Y and Z were different

                  Which of the statement(s) could be concluded from the above experiment?

                  1). Both A and B
                  2). B only
                  3). A only
                  4). Neither A nor B [/quote

                  ____________________________
                  B, as Y and Z is definitely different in density given both are solid.
                  X and Y can be same material or different material, no way to tell with this experiment hence statement is in correct[/quote

                  ___________________________
                  This question is ambiguous, simple thinking will choose option (2), but as discussed before option (4) also correct for further thinking students since density is a function of mass and volume and there’s NO indication about identical balls or all balls having the same mass.
                  Is it a trick question or badly set question?[/quote

                  ____________________________
                  Verified with teacher and tutor who is also current school teacher, the answer is 4. 2 marks deducted for DD.[/quote


                  ___________________________
                  School teacher and tutor confirmed answer is 4? Can explain why?

                  Assuming it’s a straight forward experiment (to test materials topic taught in P3):

                  X = glass,
                  Y = stone,
                  Z = styrofoam

                  Then we can’t say “neither” is correct while answer B still stands true !

                  And when an experiment is so inconclusive, then it is meaningless to conduct such an experiment, right?

                      So, more possible answer B

                        I would think the answer is B also. They don’t even know the density formula. Plus it is the material and the size of the object that matter…not the weight. So the 3 objects are drawn in the same size and the only difference that makes it sink and float is the material.
