GiftedGem:
Guess this is depending on school / individual. DS got his dateline extended one more day to 8/23 . Then he got to submit the 2nd ERP review ( the one that comes with the bread; believe some schools had already completed sometime back).Haha ! My DD is not in Nan Hua lah. Supposedly to submit today but TR gives 2 more days extension.
Having said, both Toxic118 and YY1025 have their DS in Nan Hua. You can pm them if you need updates.
Hence, busy wk for DS .... HCL + English for pp exam , and SS + ERP project submission :imdrowning: -
I wonder how many of you have reviewed CT 2 Eng mock papers. It is tough for these P4 kids who may not have the good grasp to comprehend the passage as the level is more geared towards P6 / S1 level. My DD had 31.5 for the mock paper 09 when she brought home & did for almost 2 hours. Asked her why so long and her reply was : I need to decipher the qns. Too much ambiguity. Told her that she would likely to drop below 30 for actual test cos she won’t have luxury time to check. Won’t be surprised if a no of our kids cannot make it abv 30. Likely a killer paper…

BTW, Gifted Gem… u previously mentioned abt another project … on the Ants thing.
DS school has not mentioned abt this so far . Wonder if this is off ?
Any other school has done this or in progress of it ? Can adv ?
Thx ! -

Not sure if it is the same mock papers.. but DS school has done two recently ( the 2nd one has not returned yet). Per DS, both papers equally hard . Most students scored between 30s! Hence, am expecting the worst for the coming one ...
So expect Term 3 results to be great disaster ! ( HCL / Maths / Eng all swiming ! ) -
Just4fun : The ERP submmission. That one is not the bread lah - hamburger model. (haha !) I think we, parents are getting bonkers with this Aug month for our kids - 2 projects submission and 3 subjects for Common Tests.
For the ant’s perspective, my DD has already submitted but has received no update from her TR. One thing I have learnt from this GEP : Whatever your DS/DD does, do the utmost best as this can be added to your Portfolio Assessment. Wait till I have this paper, I will keep u posted if it is graded. -
Just4fun, my DS does not have the ant’s perspective writeup too. Hamburger model book review you all talking about I do not see him doing that at home.
Regards SS, today is DS final submission dateline. No extension from his Sch. -

Wow, 31.5, that's very good, DS2's class ranges from 23 to 28 only. Wonder if it's the same mock paper. -

Just to confirm, there is one 1 ERP writeup so far right ? if so, DS2 had done it in Term 2 if I dun remember wrongly. This ERP writeup is it a new one ? :?Just4fun, my DS does not have the ant's perspective writeup too. Hamburger model book review you all talking about I do not see him doing that at home.
