Leanne:

Hi Brenda,


You are right, carefulness is very impt during the exam.
Looks like your school is doing the direct opposite subject to ours.Very interesting.

Will your dd chinese filter compre passage from past year paper or just text book?Does she impart techniqe or just get the students to copy the answer.DS school did the latter...sigh...



Cheers,
Leanne

Hi Leanne

I only can recognize two compre passages are from 2010 prelim papers and the rest of passages are not familiar to me.

She will share with the class the appropriate 成语 or 词语to apply in the particular questions as well as the good model answer that she spotted from some of her students.

Hi Brenda,

Actually the main teacher is more than happy to spend bonding time with the children.All the kids adore her.

For social studies, its cos all the time was taken off during the usual lesson.So, its kind of make up lesson for social studies.

Hi Leanne

OIC.

Nevertheless, think to recap some Singapore History and culture are still good before they move on to Secondary school. FYI, I still keep the Social Study book for P5.


BTW, DD last supplementary lesson end today! :boogie:

[Leanne]

Hi Brenda,


Yes, certainly social studies does help in secondary school.Thanks to the many field trips they had too...if not, for chinese listening compre pertaining to chinatown, they may not think of ancient building as the possible answer.


You mean today last day of supp?For us, still dont know yet.

Is it fixed that for all the PSLE subjects, an A* is 91 and above ?

Or does it fluctuates year to year ?
I'm still puzzled by the stories of kids with 4A* but a t score of only 244.

:scared: if 4A* t-score is 244! :nailbite:

I thought should be more than 250 ?

[Leanne]

Hi Brenda,


I also thought so.
I know last year, if two star and two A, range will be around 250 to 25x.

4 star should have more right?

Leanne

Hi Leanne,

Agree as I feel that the Social Study will become important when stepping in Secondary school as the EL compo. or CL compo. will move toward 时事。

Yes, today is the last day of the supplementary class for us. :rahrah:
