Hi Janet, pls advice if they need to bring entry proof to the oral or exam? Ez card perhaps ? For ID clarification ?8228:
On my ds's Entry Proof, the start time shows 8am for both days of oral. But my ds told me he is in session 2 for Day 1 (according to his teacher). I am a bit concerned as there is no written notification. Where did your dc get the timing?
But session 2 will be at about 1030. My son is also having oral at 8am. He told me he is 2nd student. There are 6 of them including him in that group. -
I am not sure what has to be brought to sit for PSLE exam/oralβ¦the briefing is only held next Wednesday. But I know student pass is needed as verification.

My boy is also sleeping a lot after school. But ok on weekends. Have to motivate and encourage him more too. Or else he will be burnt too fast. When I see him too stressed, I keep him at home like once a week to sleep in and revise. Being pumped with paper after paper can be frustrating and stressful.slmkhoo:
[quote=\"concern_mum\"]Thanks fightingmom. I really do not know what to do with him now. He would rather sleep, wonder about than sit down with me to seriously go through the paper.
Could he be over-stressed? Some people sleep more to excape stress. Maybe a few days off and some management of expectations may help.
Maybe you can bring him for ice cream and ask if there is anything bothering him. Hope he can open up.[/quote]This week & next week will be shorter. No school on Thur & Fri. Take the opportunity to get more rest to prevent burn out. Bring the kids out to get some fresh air so that they will not be nervous on PSLE Oral days. -
Will ask hubby to apply leave on Friday. Then we can have time out after the first hurdle.
lethargic of late. No school on those 2 days for kids in other levels. Short week but not that short...you know what I mean?
Right after the PSLE oral, it will be the prelims. I am expecting a tough one...so will remind my boy to take it easy and don't get too stressed over it.
Look at the BIG picture. -
can anyone share the page on the chinese nouns mentioned earlier?

DS just told me this :\"Just treat PSLE as SA2 exam & study as usual, then we all won't feel stress. Just treat PSLE oral teachers as new teacher in school, then won't feel nervous.\" He makes me realise that over emphasis on PSLE may create unnecessary stress to both parents & children. Maybe, we should all relax a bit during this period.

Sometimes our kids can really surprise us with their replies right ?
You have a really very δΉboy and quite matured thinking.
Thanks for sharing his advice !

This is the list I am referring to in my earlier post. Unfortunately the list is rather short.
All the best to yr dc in the oral exam.
