Must B very Cheap!

These were bought by a friend. Cost her US$5.00 plus. I chose only orangy ones because I have no idea what to do with the green and white ones.

Glad you enjoy the pics, Sista Mumever and Bro Trap.

[quote=\"markfch\"]Uncle Trap, was wondering which level is your gauge based on? Issit for P2, as long as more than 75 will be in the top 4 classes for P3?

To be in top 4 classes, I think definitely more than 75...
Mark, keep it up! :rahrah:
Your DS is doing a good job and I'm sure he can get in top class, if not second.

sorry, I am lost here..75 is score? Abit low lei.

Most of the time, it should be within band 1 range for all subjects. Maybe at times, one subject may be super tough and many do not score (such as EL for P4 SA1 where only 6 in entire cohort scored band 1). During P2 (and even P3/4)I remember the scores within the class were very close. The friend with position right behind her was only 0.1% lesser than hers! During P2, she scored around 94% (or was it 93%? :roll: ) and did not get into charity 3.[/quote]
If u look at overall score...even 275 for 3 subjects cannot even make it first class lor... At least 279 and above goes to first class in P3 this Yr..

dyh:

important thing is not to let it affect the child's morale if downgraded. well, if someone moves up, someone else has to come down.

Ya, that's true.

IJJ, I think Mark and Trap were referring to the pressure cooker meter...

HappyMama, you also never seen my ds before, but you got high confidence in him hor?

You know Uncle Trap actually 'tested' my ds during the BBQ nite . Don't know whether pass his appraisal or not?

I'm actually glad that there's no streaming from P2 this yr, but only from P3 onwards. Under the old system, I'm inclined to believe that there maybe many P2ers who are academically mature but didn't end up in the top class. Reason could be that they might know a lot of things but what they knew was not tested in P1; another reason maybe due to carelessness.

All these moving up and down the classes is unnecessarily stressful if done too young.

Today's the last day of PSLE. More than that, it's a passing of a milestone for those kids. 24 Nov - results day. Kids will be too excited to sleep, parents will be too scared to sleep, I think PH staff also too stressed to sleep, hahaha.

A little bird told me so. :rotflmao:
Hahaha!! No lah, I get the vibes after reading so much about your DS and his talents.

So Uncle Trap, you've tested his DS? What's your assessment and verdict? Pass with flying colours?

Next time I'll ask my DH to assess your DS, if we do have a gathering. My DH is able to 会眼看英雄... Oops, not sure if I used the correct word.

Bro Mark,
You are right!! My DS super duper careless. Really buah tahan him. Ask him to do some work last night and the answer to first question was already wrong. Even a nursery kid knows the answer. End result, spanked spanked spanked as the carelessness was totally unacceptable.

His school does teach some general knowledge stuff. Thus, there are things that he knew definitely that will not be tested in P1 or P2.

I am very sure that DS's results will be pulled down by his carelessnes + laziness to think. When Mummy is around, he is already like this. When Mummy isn't around, isn't it worst? Hope I wish he can be like me last time. Sigh. . . .

IJJ,

I anyhow test one. By reading Mark post, you will also gather his ds is a high achiever. We will have to wait till next year to hear the good news.
