All About Preparing For PSLE

[janet88]

Hi skss,

I guess the school will start pushing from term 3.
Maths tutor has already informed me she will be very strict from next year…gave her my blessings. Bcos my boy is still not aware of the seriousness of P6. Perhaps I will cut down when school reopens. In the meantime, I want him to get something done every morn for 1 hour.

Thanks for your advice.

As my DD scored badly in her MT, I am already starting revision for Chinese yesterday. Maybe just 1 hr of revision per day and the rest, I just let her play. I think if we start to revise their "worst "subject next year, it will be more pressure for them.

Same here. Doing 1 hour every morn for Eng/Chinese and Science (OE or MCQ). To strengthen P5 foundation. Cannot start next year bcos teachers will go 5th gear when school starts. Next year will very busy.

Hi parents,


I am rather worried about Science and English. I realize from hearing what my friends say that their kids can get A star for Math easily but not many get A star for English and Sci esp English. Is there any truth to this? How to help our kids in this area?

I heard from my friends who have kids in P6 and secondary school now. They say English is hard to get A star. Your kid must be a natural in it, must read a lot. Going for tuition helps but to really get that A star, the child must get almost perfect scores for oral, compo etc so the child should be already doing very very well in daily work. I think if your child is not like that, aim for high A. After all, it is the aggregate that is important not the stars.
