For Maths Part 2 on long structured questions, does anyone know if it is compulsary to draw the model that we were taught during the Maths Workshop sometime back?

I think for lower pri, kids are taught using models to solve the math questions.
In p6, unless stated, kids use any methods which they are comfortable or confident with, to churn out the answer.

Thanks Starlight... so meaning no need to draw the models also can right? My DD find it a chore to draw.... and can be a waste of time as P1 kids still can't really draw a nice rectangle and the brace brackets

Hi gaagaa,

Please confirm with the teacher to have a peace of mind.

Hi gaagaa,

Your child should be able to determine if the question needs to use modelling or other heuristic skills ( patterns, guess & check etc ). Not all questions are required to draw models.

Hi RRMummy, same feeling here, notice is ALWAYS so short. And my notice was even shorter. I only know about the time-table last Sunday!!! Almost got a heart attack... guess the oral cham liao.... :imdrowning: cos' I didn't have enough time to prepare her....

:snuggles: Oh dear!! That must have really been a heart-attack. What happened? Anyway, don't think about the Oral. Gotta forge ahead for the next papers.

With so many holidays for election, prep for election, teachers' day etc etc, last term was super short. I feel that there is so much pressure now to complete so many topics before Part 1 of the papers. I don't see the rationale in making Part 1 and 2 so far apart... the syllabus and the revision has to be completed before Part 1 right? That leaves only 3 weeks! This is really :yikes: If the Part 1 and 2 were nearer the time constraint would have at least been a little better... :frustrated:

I think we should feedback to the school.

My worst worry for CL (now that Oral is over) is the kan(4)tu(2)xie(3)ju(4)... my DD's weakest point... :gloomy:

But in terms of subject, I worry most for Maths.. :lightrod:

Oh, I seldom check her files for letters and usually she'll let me know if there's any letter for me to see. But she just forgotten to tell me on the Time-table letter :mad: no point brooding over it now... have to focus on the rest now.

I'm not sure why the Part 1 and 2 are so far apart also, but maybe they need to see the results of Part 1 first, then decide on the difficulty level of Part 2? In any case, the elearning questions already cover all the syllabus, so somehow I had to teach my girl those new topics during the elearning week
