SAHM_TAN:

I found out that P1 next yr will be exposed to the new assessment modes already, so am restraining myself, just getting the core.

Hi Mummy SAHM_TAN :hugs:
Care to share more about it? I now especially my to-go P1 DD2 is the typical eats potatoes type! :faint:

Here's the link on information about changes to the teaching of Mother Tongue.

http://www.moe.gov.sg/media/press/2011/01/enhancing-the-teaching-and-testing-of-mtl.php

Here's the sample of the test items

The changes to the oral format is the reason why I did not buy any oral guide materials. I was not sure then when the P1s will be exposed to the new assessment modes.

I hope the school will organise a briefing session on these new test items. I'm not sure how to help DD1 for oral if they are using video starting in P1

huh? going to change? :faint:

Only affecting those taking 2017 PSLE and beyond. Those earlier ones are NOT affected.

What are the changes going to be? Do you know? I am already so blur at MT now there are changes.

after reading the press release and the sample test items, I'm not totally clear, so hoping there's some sort of briefing for parents. The only part that I'm sure about is the oral component. The pre 2017 is using pictures for a child to describe the scene etc. 2017 PSLE, will be using video stimuli but I do not know how that will be carried out.

looks like MOE will be busy with changing MTL, then other subjects will remain the same?

no news on other subjects, unless I missed cos sometimes there's no time to watch or read heehee

I think so too.
My tutor told me there will be some changes with P1/2 oral next year. She will be helping me find out more when school reopens.

I think most of the parents out-sourced the MT, so its in tutors hands lor...

HI PLUM-CAKE

Honestly, it's much much easier to buy CL assessment books as compared to other subjects...that's why I get CL assessment books last. It's a torture to buy the other 3 subjects...standing there and going through contents is :stupid:
