Hi mummies...


Daddy missing... :razz:

Good to have such briefing.... to keep all parents aware if they or their kids are experiencing it for the 1st time... :scared:

Not sure if my school will hold a briefing. That's why :lovesite:

DDs school is holding it the following week. Did you check with the school?

Don't drink too much coffee though, saw Dr. Oz's show that coffee can cause cancer.

I am beginning to think what doesnt cause cancer. coz they say Cow's Milk and chocolate also causes cancer.

my drinking is limited coz I dont like coffee, just the caffeine shot.

YES, I was shocked when discovered milk can cause cancer. BUT....but chocolate too ?

Hi mummies, this thread has been quiet for a few days.

Just attended a class parents meeting in dd sch last Friday and the teacher has briefed us what to expect and prepare our kids for this year. At the end of the year, all children will have to sit for a formal SA2 exam. Average time for one paper is about 1hr 30min, so we are advised to train our kids to sit still and focus for 1 and half hr....stress....For maths paper, there will be 45 questions with 3 sections...MCQ, short answer and problem sums. There will also be paper 1 and paper 2 for English...Paper 1 is compo and given 4 pictures, the kids have to write a complete story....this SA2 stands 60% of the entire year... :nailbite: The sch will base on their total result to band them into different classes in P3. :shock:

Same with my DD1 school but SA2 stands at 40% only. The rest r the same. Stress :nailbite:

Just need to make sure, consistent work.

Yeah... full length papers can be taxing for little ones... Esp math papers; very easy to lose focus by the time the kids reach Section C... So I think it's also good to teach them time management skills, even at this level...

Hmmmmm, should the kid start from section C, while the mind is still fresh?

Exam technique huh? :evil:
Yeah, guess you can do that, but need to check weighting first. Don't want to 因小失大 lah.
By P3 many schools will start using OAS, so one more thing to get familiar with! All those bubbles to shade... very easy to miss out a row wor.
