Hi Leanne

I suggest you may use PSLE Oral book as a guide for the above.

However, the best way is still to communicate in Mandarin daily as in long run it also benefit in CL Compo.

Perhaps this can also ease our potential problem if the weightage in Oral increase (very likely) when our children are in Secondary School.

Just my 2 cents thought.

Thank you

Hi Leanne,
DD's sch also places the same weightage as Brenda's for Eng & MT oral... Is this the same for your DS's sch? I wonder it's the same weightage for PSLE? :scratchhead: Do you know, Brenda??

Hi Brenda,
I hope MOE doesn't increase the weightage for MT oral in Sec sch. :nailbite: As it is, DD finds it stressful :slapshead:

Hi Leanne,
DD also hardly speaks chinese.. :lol: For MT oral prep, we used this PSLE oral book which shows model answers for typical questions asked in the conversation segment. DD finds it very useful. :idea: I don't have the book with me now as a friend has borrowed it so can't tell you the title. It's one of the latest PSLE oral book (green in colour). Maybe can check it our at Popular (for next year's prep).

Hi tansm2010 & Brenda,


Tks for the clarification. :celebrate:

[James Ang]

for some schools, there are still changes to classes and those who did well in P5 overall can go to the best/top classes, and SA2 exam makes up around 50% weighting of P5 work, so SA2 is indeed the exam that can make a difference to the class the student gets in P6.

Leanne:

Hi Brenda and Belle ,

Thanks for sharing.
Forgot to ask, how did you dd fair for last CA2 , was it a tough one?How many percent of it will be included in sa2?

Thanks.

Leanne

Hi Leanne,

For my DD's sch, the weightage of exams are broken down as follows:

CA1 - 10%
SA2 - 20%
CA2 - 20%
SA2 - 50%
Total: 100%
I believe most schs place the most weightage on SA2. What about your DS's sch?
