1. I would say memorising the teachers' name!
What are the challenges you ve faced this year?
I always forget them haha!
2. Memorise the room codes is a problem for me because in primary school we just say the room name but in secondary school, there are room codes (Block, Level, Index). For example, B2-02 means Block B, Level 2, and 2nd Classroom.
3. Calling teachers using the telephone outside the staff room. This always stresses me because my primary school does not use telephone to call teachers in the staff room. We just simply walk into the staff room back in primary school!
(I recently learnt that not having a calling system for teachers is quite rare haha)
4. More Independence. Some teachers don't mark homework, instead, they just go through and we mark ourselves. And some subjects (especially coursework like Art, D&T, F&N) requires us to submit on time if not we minus 5% from our grade! One of my classmates dropped from B3 to C6 like that! :scared:
Overall, I think it will take 3 months to adapt but it will depend on the student. -

Take a dictionary. Start from the letter A, read and memorize the words. End at letter Z. Repeat the process backwards.
Probably wonβt help much but better than doing nothing.
(I would have also suggested a phone book or yellow pages in place of a dictionary but I doubt anyone has one of those lying around anymore) -

Languages: Feedback is important! This will help in your narrative or expository writing!ERROR\" post_id=\"2008023\" time=\"1608025877\" user_id=\"189473:Any study tips you would recommend for the P6's that are going to Secondary 1 next year?
Mathematics and Science: Understand concepts and memorise formulas and definitions! If you have questions, please ask immediately! You will lose out very fast if you wait last minute!
Humanities: Feedback for essays are important! Don't just memorise, also understand them at the same time, that way you can easily link concepts in your essays! Also, if you are slow writer, practise writing fast, I can't emphasise so much! I lost 7 marks in History because I had no time to write 1 essay! (My school tests History with 4 SUPER LONG answer questions and 2 essays! All in 1 hour and 30 minutes!)
D&T and F&N: Please follow instructions very clearly! If you are unsure, ask your teacher! My classmate unsure of which tool to use in D&T, he end up cracking his plastic in half accidentally! :scared:
Overall, please submit coursework homework on time! (Especially Art) One of my classmates dropped from B3 to C6 in Art like that! -

In my school, prices can reach $2.90. So I recommend $3! I carry $10 in case I have to buy something urgently! haha!ERROR\" post_id=\"2008023\" time=\"1608025877\" user_id=\"189473:How much pocket money do you think u should have per day or week? Do you have more or less, actually?
