My DD sits for PSLE last year, she only had Chinese 1-1 tuition for a few months after CB with a former Chinese teacher. The rest of the subjects, I just coached her. My opinion
Kids in P6 this year. My first PSLE children. Appreciate advice from experienced parents.
Boot Camps in June, which subject to go for? Weaker or stronger subjects?
Any good places to consider?
English - do well in paper 2 on the various editing, vocab cloze, in another word, read more story books, learn more power phases
Maths - practice more, this subject is relatively the easiest among the 4 subjects, practice the past year school papers will do
Science - MCQ needs to be correct and perfect. Open-ended questions need to enforce the concept of keywords. The marker marked according to keywords. Comparative questions need to use comparative words, like fastest, slowest, bigger, smaller etc. Some notes from Pique Lab are very useful.
In other words, practice more past year papers. -

Also need to motivate the child. Think there are several e-open house, can surf so your child can determine which school to go for, and work towards that. Motivation is important.

I actually set a target for my DD to go RVHS as that is my alma mater. But she did not like (probably classmate and teacher influence in school), and she ended in a school much above my expectation. -

My friend was sharing with me that in her daughter’s class, 2 classmates with 91 marks were crying , not shedding tears of joy but sobbing sadly over 91 marks for Maths. To my understanding, AL1 is 90 and above.
The children must be so stressed with the exam and as parents, perhaps should reflect on the pressure putting on children unknowingly and to teachers who have students crying over 91 marks, perhaps should help these students with their mental well-being. -
:siao: Ya lor, 90 is already AL1, what’s there to cry about getting 91? :siao:
Maybe their parents cannot let go of the bygone era of T score system, threatened to cane them or sthg...
I doubt it’s the kids themselves (or the teachers) who feel that 91 is not good enough. Unless they are some perfectionist kind of personality.
Even my P5 already talks in terms of AL. Learnt the lingo from his teachers. -
