Definitely parents still have to coach. Enrichment or sch won't help much.

I asked him to attend tuition for Sci.He refused to go.I gave him two option.
1)study by himself
2)go to tuition
He said choose the first one.When I asked him to read the topic he expected me to read for him.Then I asked qn,he don't know the answer and told me I never read,that's why he doesn't know. :stupid: :stupid:
When we studying his mind always think about TV/computer/iphone.I wonder if it continued like this how he would manage P5 load. :roll:

hello all, i was just wondering if your DC immediately says \" i don't know \" when given a question to do? sometimes my cousins make me so :frustrated: because they want to be given the answer without thinking!! :slapshead: :?:


Is the norm now? I don't remember myself doing that

Depends on the type of questions, if it is basic concept type, my kid will do, but if it is those challenging type, I actually let her look at the answers (not solution) and ask her to try it out. If she still does not get it, i will coach her myself and study the solution together. At the same time I can also assess if that question is suitable for her level..certain questions are too chim for her, I will tell her it is okay to let it go NOW..(prob her concept not strong, or her first attempt at seeing those types of questions) but she has to be mentally ready to expect those questions on and off during the exam..the least she could do is not not panic and try her best to salvage 0.5 or 1-2 marks for showing working or writing down key points.

My concern now is how to let her know the importance of P5..been telling her P5 is a crucial year for PSLE exam..she has to start getting mentally ready..P6 is a short year..no time to loose. She will be the first kid to do PSLE in our family..and I cant help getting worried..she still seems carefree and relax..perhaps due to holiday...

dear bebe

its challenging qns.when we were preparing for sa2.my son read the qn and he knew is not the normal qn.so he said i don’t know how to do this.he didn’t want to try.i feel if he tried then would help in exams.last sa2 he got wrong about three qns cos of didn’t think out of the box.
