2012 PSLE Discussions and Strategy

[Zekezachzoom]

I am keeping a very close eye on my DS as I am really worry that he has too much on his plate and stress out ESP there are 2 major competitions in march & april that he is training very hard on.


My DS assures me that he is managing well without any stress now but he simply doesn’t have much time for me to run thru revisions with him. Looks like can only do serious revisions after his competition in April ;( cross my finger that he will be ok for his ca1 as we had ran the topics during his dec holidays.

This morning wake up whole body aching. I guess I really didn't sleep well! I told DS during breakfast that he's still in lalaland. Lots of people I know have already started off in their PSLE race (even not started also warming up). He said they must all be lying to me!!! :yikes: :rant:

Then I went on to tell him how our brain is like a giant sponge. Need time to absorb all the information through consistent revision. So he went and got a Math paper 1 done in 35 mins (very rare cos he would usually try to waste as much time as possible even up to 2hrs so after that there is hopefully no more time left to do anything else). Wish he can be like that all the time. Don't know when then can grow up. Anyway, now DS playing again. Should be close shop for the day liao.

I ordered the exam paper and shld be working on it soon .

aiyoh, u guys r very stressful. really stressing me. I haven even strt doing the papers yet. Thought of doing it like in 3 weeks time. Now doing the normal practice of concepts first. Dont wan to stress my DS first, if nt will be burn out soon. Is it late to do the papers after another 3 or 4 weeks???

I am feeling the stress too! I guess our kids now have to adopt the \"Question-based Approach to Studying - technique of using questions to improve understanding and scoring for exams\"

I'm planning to start him on Eng & Science CA1 on 2nd day of CNY.
Well, 2 days of COMPLETE fun (Sun & Mon) should be sufficient for a P6.
