Hello mummies,


I am looking for maths enrichment centre for my N2 girl. I cant seem to decide on Mighty math (not sure what level classes start from), JEI / PSLE Math (Classes from N1), Mighty math, Maths Hub (Classes from K1) or even MPM (Classes from K1).

My daughter attends a montessori school. So other than what she does at school, i dont do anything about maths with her. Can anyone advice what is should be looking for an a math enrichment? I am not too keen on abacus. what’s more important is understanding math concepts, rather than the speed. I know that abacus helps in other things like concentration, right brain development.

Can anyone here advice me on the pros and cons of the math enrichment centres i have short-listed? Thanks!

Yep, Marine Parade their main branch. Jason, their programme manager is based there. Today, Jason shared with me what their coming select paper for P5 and P6. They had selected a spread of different topics from 2011 top school papers and compile them into one paper. His reason was many students is unlikely to complete all the top school papers before SA1. Its more efficient for the student to revise if the centre select the good questions from various school and put them into one paper. I think that makes alot of sense. Good Job!

Hi Pixy,


I can share with you the advantages of MPM and JEI.

Advantages
----------
MPM - known for critical thinking questions and its spiral learning model.
JEI - IB based syllabus so will be relevant for P1. Also known for its customised programme based on child's weaknesses.

Disadvantages
------------
MPM - Most stupid thing about this programme is we can't take the books home. So no way we can revise with the kids or monitor closely what our kids are doing.
JEI - They could have use more manipiulatives for preschool children. They use primarily blocks as manipulatives. Similar to those use in Primary 1.

Finally,

If you looking for enrichment, I recommend MPM.
If you looking for relevance to MOE, I recommend JEI

[JEI PSLE MATH]

In this coming SA1 all P5 and P6 students will be tested on Ratio. One of the commonly tested type of ratio question is one that involves "All Element Change". We have posted a video link on our Facebook page that explain in detail the mechanics of solving this type of question. We strongly encourage all P5 and P6 students to watch this video and understand the mechanics before SA1.

All the best to all our students, work hard, study smart and do your best in SA1!

Hi Parents,


My gal have been with the centre for 5 months. So guess its time to share with parents her progess.
Although her results for CA1 and SA 1 remains the same (actually dropped by 1 mark), but my girl felt that PSLEMath has helped her alot on her model drawing. Now she is more confident and willing to use model to solve questions.
And she’s always very encouraged whenever she got a star for every question she got correct for the SELECT papers.
The small class size also ensure she get the attention needed.

Until then, its time to enjoy the June holiday now !!!
