2022 PSLE Discussions & Strategies (born in 2010)

[Grr_roxy]

Will be nice that kiddos can resume physical/on site CCA next year. Looks like the plan is for secondary, JC or older. No mention on primary level. Maybe till vaccination program roll out for them. But wondering what is the plan for our 11 years old kids as vaccine dosage might be different for 11 and 12 years old. Ours will be in-between if vaccination program will roll out in Dec.

Also it is likely that the common last topics will NOT be excluded for this 2022 PSLE batch unlike the previous two batches (2020 and 2021):

Standard Mathematics:
Primary 6 content under Speed, Volume, Pie Charts, Solid Figures and Nets

Foundation Mathematics:
Primary 6 content under Volume, Geometry, Pie Charts.

Standard and Foundation Science:
Interactions within the Environment

I agree with you. 2022 PSLE will most likely have full content loading.
Very likley for kids aged 5 to 11 to be vaccinated in first quarter 2022 as well.

PSLE Math and Science seems to follow a trend - Math paper will have more challenging questions in one year and Science in the next. It seems this year Maths paper was challenging and it was the same 2 years ago in 2019.
2020 Science paper was highlighted as being challenging but not the Maths.
Do you think 2022 Science exam paper will be the challenging? Anyone with opnions on this.

We should refrain from making such predictions because SEAB doesn't set paper using a trend matrix. And what I find amusing is why parents are so quick to say that 2021 Math paper is tough without even seeing the paper. If you ask me, I think your best prediction will be as good as flipping a coin and nothing is going to change how students or parents should prepare for 2022.

I just realized that Speed is a very major (and extremely tricky) topic for Standard Math. :nailbite:

Yes... but if your child has good visualization skills, it should be straight forward.

Hi, wish to know how is speed a major topic for standard math? I only knew it’s tough didn’t see it carrying heavy weight (in terms of marks) in pre-covid papers. Thanks

I want to sell this book. Please PM if keen.

Of late, eg the 5 yrs PSLE Papers , at most 2 or 3 marks Mcq or short ans Qs. However, the Past year Qs, ( precovid), you still can find 4/5 marks Speed Qs.[/quote]I’m just concerned that it is a topic that’s difficult to grasp. And so time-consuming to figure out during exams. Even if the recent trend is fewer mark allocation to Speed qns, that means the child has to spend a long amount of time working on that 2-3 mark qn for less gains. Versus a 2-3 mark qn for a simpler topic like Angles.
