[quote=\"fifiyeo\"]Anyone got a good yoga teacher to recommend? Was wondering if this would help relieve the PSLE stress for both mommy and DS???

do meditation.5 mins meditation equal to 1hr yoga.

Any suggestion as to how to teach DS to do this? He thinks that it's so funny and kept peeping and giggling.[/quote]Why must meditate & do yoga? Can eat or drink your favorite stuffs or do some exercise or listen to music to relieve stress instead.
Oh, I bossy here again.... :roll:

Generally, about 85% to 87% of P6 pupils will get a Pass grade for PSLE maths, which is easily the worst passing rate for the 4 main subjects.

Every year, many pupils will cry after their PSLE Maths paper, it is just a matter of whether this gets reported or not.
Thus it is usually a time of weeping and gnashing of teeth, and all that.

Why are there many pupils cry after their PSLE Maths paper every year? Not every year is a tough paper, certain year is easy paper. 2010 & 2011 PSLE Math papers are not that tough. Of course, we are unable to predict whether it is going to be a tough or easy paper this year. The high ability ones will hope for a difficult paper.

no one cried in year 2010 & 2011

my DS was disappointed that it was not difficult[/quote]

Why not let ur ds go for a head massage...can be vey relaxing. A good body massage to destress will be good too. I normally give dd a hair cut, hair treatment n ahead massage before exams. She feels \"lighter\" after that.

Where to do head massage?

I feel like I need to shave off all my head now! :frustrated:[/quote]I bring my girl to a ladies club or one of the salons where she does her hair .... u can check any of those joints that offer top to toe massage.

[quote=\"Chenonceau\"]Anyone have views on Tao Nan 2012 math prelim?

Hi, Chen.

Tao Nan Maths Prelim Paper 2, Q.16 is flawed, right? The orange beads, question stated as given by Jodie's friend, shouldn't it be Jodie's? Else not workable....

Hah? Is it? DS solved it with algebra and got the answer provided with the Top School paper? I've asked him to check again.

Edited: Hubby and DS solved it. There seems to be no issue with the question.

Anyone else done the Tao Nan paper? What thoughts? Difficult/Moderate/Easy?[/quote]

My girl friend DD got 95/100 on maths pp. Do you think Easy/difficult.

I think Easy wor... DS scored 100 within time limit. I think that generally prelim 1 is more easy than prelim 2 for schools like Tao Nan? Is it? Anyone knows?
