      Daddy 😧

      I read that the change will take place for PSLE 2017... so meaning those from Pri1 2012 will be the 1st batch of students taking the new exams......


      I wonder if it mean that textbooks would be different too? can't use pass-it down :?

      Ya, not sure if textbooks will also change. Will have to wait and see. But somehow, I've a nagging suspicion that they will change the textbooks to tie in with the changes.

              I have to buy new books for her anyway....studying in diff school from older boy, and so using different textbooks. Next year also no textbook for English. I'm an advocate of textbooks, even if it sucks.

                  My son used 'My Pals Are Here' English since P1...vocab and grammar to be tested is not obviously shown...worse for Vocab, for eg animals and their young. But at least I know what is taught in Chap 1, 2, 3 etc. For P1s now, I have no idea what she is doing in school, other than waiting for her worksheets to be returned when she is done. 😒

                    How often they return the worksheets? ask her to write a note in her diary every day.... I am still training her to write. :stupid: For all the subjects which have books she have to write the page number in her diary. and for english she has to tell me soon after she step in the house. other wise she will forget and will tell me next day morning while waiting for the school van. it happens to me all the time. 😒

                      Don't know when the worksheets will be returned...her teacher told me each time they finish a topic...wonder how long they will finish. Daughter told me she has to bring the 'Basic English Grammar' reference to school everyday. Then it shouldn't be put in the 'optional list'.

                        under one story heading they have to do

                        Reading, Vocab, Grammar, Listening, Practical activity like drama...Eg for bubble trouble they go out door to play bubble..., Spelling, Compo/Creative writing etc.etc... so they will streach it to 2weeks.
