Perhaps this is only for your school exam papers. For psle, as long as the algebra is used correctly, it is acceptable.[/quote]That was what I was told back in 2012. Algebra is accepted in the PSLE examination.happydaddy\" post_id=\"2040158\" time=\"1633086702\" user_id=\"5470:
It is strictly not allow in problem solving. you will get only answer mark but not working mark.
Algebra is allowed, it's in the syllabus
I believe the all the P6 teacher has highlight this issue to the students many times. Strictly NO algebra allow, else no mark will be given for the working.
For usage within the school setting, it depends on the HOD. -
Yes. Algebra is acceptable and taught in P6.
The issue here is the type of Algebra working that is used.
Simple algebra is just using a variable to represent a unit/part of a bar model. This method is acceptable and taught in schools.
Of course if the kid starts to do factorisation or solving it using simultaneous equations (substitution or elimination method), or changing the signs/mode of operation of the variables when carrying across the = sign, then it is clearly beyond P6 syllabus and he wont get the method marks -

Would this be the question that's stressing the students out?

I don't recall the PSLE being this tough back when my child was in primary 6.
In the past, the T-score could be moderated if the cohort does badly overall. Not sure if moderation is still possible in the new \"AL\" scoring system. -

This question may seem difficult for parents who are not familiar with the new methodology of problem-solving.

For parents who are familiar with what this generation of students are learning, you will recognise that this question is simply a combination of model drawing analysis and assumption method.
e.g Instead of say 4 wheels/legs minus 2 wheels/legs x no of parts. For this case, it is 2.7g x no of parts (which is 40) -
