JEI/PSLE Math - Discussion

[headache1969]

This I got to share. This centre actually provide free lessons for P5 and P6! Was there yesterday to enquire for my DD. Too bad, only P5 P6, my DD don;t qualify. Ok. the material looks good. Colourful as mentioned in this forum. Will need to reconsider because slot my busy DD can go is not available.

TIPS (3) FOR P3 - GUESS & CHECK


GUESS & CHECK questions typically are first introduced at P3. Challenges P3 students faced in Guess and Check questions are:
Challenge 1> Could not recognise the question is a G&C question
Challenge 2> Tedious as G&C questions require tabulation and numerous arithmetic computation.
\t 2a> Prone to error (careless mistakes)
\t 2b> Take up precious examination time

How to work around challenge 2?

Step 1: Solve the question using the 4 steps method (see attached pic).
Step 2: Tabulate the G&C table as required by the school using the answer derived from step 1.

How to work around challenge 1?

There is no short cut way around this. Students need to be exposed to more G&C questions to learn to recognise them. Usually G&C questions deals with legs and wheels, but these days G&C questions comes in many forms. See attached pic 2.

Limitation

This methodology will work only for P3. G&C questions for upper primary are very different.
