Anyone has kid that are p5 in 2010?

[Leanne]

Exam condition and mental stage of the child is very impt.We can try our best to help the child, but the day is really depends on the exam itself.


Can do tons and tons of revision, but its the last race that counts.

That is why, my last post, after pri five , just move on, no matter how good or bad the results is.If its good, keep it up, if its bad, just fine tune those topics or areas that are weak.

Very true.

For chinese, if our effort is as much as math, am very very sure, the rewards is also more.

There again, sometime, if the math paper set in school is low, yet careless in the paper, it can be quite bad too.Very hard to judge the standard of a child too.DS class has got one girl pretty good in math, mid year 95m sa2, dropped to 75,I believe must be an accident.Cannot be so drastic and sa1 is a tougher paper.

Constantly have been doing high level questions may not be the best bet too.So still thinking how to strike a good balance.

Hi Leanne

Very true.

I think this definitely a big blow especially SA2 is super important.

DD class also have a girl did badly in Science if not wrong the grade is like low B.

We can do our best and the final result is not up to us to decide

Hi Brenda,


In this case, this boy is very lucky, he still gets 28 marks.

Mummies,

Care to share what are the mistakes that your dd or ds has made or done well during this sa exam?

Mine over fumble in math paper, under peformed, cos too stress up.

On science mcq, shade one of the oas at the wrong one.Answer on paper itself is correct.

Anyone has any idea if english compo goes out of point, how many marks will be awarded?thanks

Leanne

Hi Leanne

That's good. As such have to very careful in either EL Compo. or CL Compo. otherwise immediately 32 marks fly off.

To excel in maths, mental conditioning is critical. Hve plenty of sleep and relax the day before exam.


Imagine having to tackle problem sums in PSLE under exam condition.

English creative writing course is also in my plans but unless it's a miracle course, I really doubt 6 weeks can make a difference. I am also wondering if I should consider making it a full year commitment (up to PSLE) but I can't imagine having to send him there every week ...!

Hi keroppi,

Have your shortlisted any centre for Creative Writing? Any suggestion?

Not yet. I'm still asking around for recommendation. Will let you know when I have decided. :celebrate:

[Leanne]

Yes, agreed.


On the contrary, ds sleeps very early this year, but he fumble, due to mental stage at that moment.

So sad, but thank goodness its only pri five.

DS wrote out of point for his SA2 CL compo Not sure of marks yet as his school never reveal compo marks - only give out paper 2 marks and we can calculate oral+compo+listening compre lump together from marks in report book. We are worried this will pull down his overall CL marks badly. Really praying and hoping for the best.

I think the 28 marks is more likely for \"side-track\" type of compo, not the \"out-of-point\" compo. There are difference between \"side track\" - you start on right track but end up distracted and wrong emphasis on the way - vs \"out-of-point\" - misinterpret the compo title and give totally wrong content.

Hello Pen88n


Whatever it is , its over.Maybe its good to make the mistake in pri five then in psle.In psle, there is no return.But, in pri five, take it as a checkpoing.

Hi Leanne


Recd the CL Paper 2. DD was so careless that wrote 3 wrong words and caused 1.5 marks deducted in her 2nd portion.

She is 3 marks below the top in the level for this CL P2, as such she was :x of her own mistakes.

No choice but just ask her to be more alert and careful in the future.
