Hi all
May I know what could be possibly tested under “Waves” for SPA? :scratchhead:
What should the child take note and prepare for this topic?
I would appreciate suggestion.
Thank you very much. -

Are you referring to the topic General Wave Properties as opposed to Light/Electromagnetic Waves? I don't teach Physics and it has been a couple of years since I did Physics SPA but I'll try to recall what I've done.

Thank you for your reply, masteryourmath .
The topic on General Wave Properties.
Thank you. -

Hi, as far as I remember, what I had done before was doing SPA with sound waves for General Wave Properties. That being said, I was from an IP school and as such I don't think it's fair for me to speak for O Levels.Thank you for your reply, masteryourmath .
The topic on General Wave Properties.
Thank you.
May I know what's your intention for finding out how Waves will be tested for Physics SPA? -

Thank you.
SPA on general wave properties may test candidates' understanding of types of wave, like either longitudinal wave or transverse wave. Then assess the student's skills to find wavelength, speed, period and etc.
Must revise graphical representation of waves and the terminologies (e.g. frequency, period, wavelength, speed, amplitude, crest and tough and etc.).

regarding o level physics assessment books, which books should i get? The one from Math digest or the one from yellow reef (challenging drill questions and solutions ).

both. I think both are equally importantregarding o level physics assessment books, which books should i get? The one from Math digest or the one from yellow reef (challenging drill questions and solutions ).

Anyone can advise how to do well for the SPA?

At this time, you are doing SPA (School Based Practical Assessment) Skill 3?
Regardless, your school teacher would have a few practice sessions/trials before the actual assessment.
1. Learn from the practice sessions/trials - what to take note of, time management during practical etc.
2. For Skill 3, there is a format to follow.
You will be able to do well if you put effort to remembering all of these.
All the best! :rahrah:
