      Come to think of it, since we are on Comprehension topic, is there a difference between Listening Comprehension vs. Written Comprehension component, this coming Tuesday (26 Sep) ?


      I mean, of course, LC test u on the listening skill, whether u are paying attention, or not ?

      But, whether is listening or reading a passage silently to yourself, ultimately it is still "Comprehension" after all, isn’t it ?

        Have faith in your DD, maybe your DD is the one who got it correct in her class! πŸ™‚

        My DS told me the hoping...Came towards the end of passage . So the danger with LC is kids assume the first answer n did not listen on to the rest...

        The threat and human movement was mentioned earlier but in the passage, the narrator mentioned the human movement was controlled by the neighbours moving very carefully so as not to alarm the birds...

        Whereas though a board was put up to block wind, it was mentioned the man Hoping it will be enough....

        Hoping means the man is not sure and not confident that the nest can withstand the strong winds

        That's what his teacher cannot jump to conclusions , must listen to the end of passage.
        My Ds chose strong winds . He refused to tell me why .πŸ˜”
        He asked me to move on as if he is the parent

        oh my I m not alone...dd told me she really needs some time alone..say dd2 and I taking turns to go into her room, very disruptive..dont want to talk abt lc anymore, also say move on..

            They test (and reward) different skills. Some people naturally learn better through auditory methods. These people prefer listening to audio books & absorb well.

            The textual readers learn and understand better through reading books & long texts.

            Eg maybe dyslexics may find LC easier to understand than having to decipher long texts for written compre.

                My DD was upset as she chose 2 for the first question in CL listening test. She appeared being strong only. Poor kid.

                  Sometimes, they just hide their fear and anxiety. We must be sensitive to their emotions.

                  Last Friday, while sending my DS to school , he took out his pencil case twice to check. I can feel his worries. Told him just try your best , just a LC .

                        Students are posted to secondary schools based on merit. A student with a better aggregate score will be considered for admission first, subject to the availability of vacancies in the selected school. If there are no more vacancies, then the student will be considered for their next choice school(s).


                        In situations where there are two or more students with the same aggregate score vying for the last place in a school, they will be posted based on their citizenship status (i.e. Singapore Citizens, then Singapore Permanent Residents, then International Students). If there is still a tie, e.g. between two Singapore Citizens with the same aggregate score, then posting into the school will be determined by a computerised ballot where each student is given an equal opportunity.

                        If your child fails to get a place in any of their choice of schools, they will be posted to a school near their home which still has vacancies. As such, if you have changed your official residential address in your NRIC, you are advised to update the primary school of your new address by the end of PSLE.
