2012 PSLE Discussions and Strategy

Fetching DD home now. She is eating her lunch. Said was quite like prelim…
I follow SUN’s advice not to ask her too much. Now she is happily having a novel in one hand and enjoying her lunch.
One down, four to go! -
My DS told me that the continuous writing was about a library where you heard a sound that was growing louder and louder. Sounds ‘do-able’. Pray and hope for the best.

My dc also wrote a fire scene from the picture but outside the house !! really worried that it may be out of point ! Any english teacher out there to share your views ? Thanks

What? serious? The teacher is really super kiasu. I won't let my child stay. DD plans to sleep, to read a book, (not textbook) and play table-tennis in the rest of day.Hi
My boy still need to stay back for supp class ????????? Very kiasu teacher!!
So I would like to know what is the continuous compo about and whether the paper 2 is hard. -

My DS wrote the continuous one but I have a feeling he was out of point. He wrote he was in the library and trapped in the lift??!!!!
I asked him more but he refused to tell me more....saying that English Paper is over and do not want to talk abt it... -

Can be if they link it properly to say that it was a joyous occasion marred by or ending in a tragedy. Not sure cos didn't actually see the picture but so long as what was shown in the picture is part of the story should be ok. Don't worry!!!! -
My DS said open compre not too bad compare to school prelim. The compre close and sentence synthesis is tricky. Situation writing is abt complimenting a good deed by a student. Hurray- one paper down.

fire scene sounds ok to me. In what way are you scare that it is out of point?

my dd called and said paper is easy but definitely will minus marks.. .. dont know wat she means :? -
I am not sure if fire scene is ok, it should be but some teachers very strict, like they want the compo to be mainly about the picture. I am not sure but that is what I heard some parents talking about just now.
My kid wrote about hearing some hissing noise in the library for the strange noise one. His friend wrote on bomb…err, what do you guys think? I am a bit worried after hearing the parents talking outside the school with their kids…
