By this step you have Identitied 3 things:-
A) Goal: Do your child want to get an A or a B or Just a pass?
B) Workload: How much to study to get the Goal?
A) Goal: Do your child want to get an A or a B or Just a pass?
B) Workload: How much to study to get the Goal?
If your child is lacking in Primary 4, its about 1000 words to pass and 1500 words to get an A.
If your child did not do well in primary 5, its about 600 words to pass and about 1000 words to get an A.
If your child has been doing well in primary 5, then your child needs to revise every thing at least once and learn new words fast by reading compositions from China primary 4-6 child or reading secondary 1-3 compositions.
As the new Oral format requires some news knowledge about Singapore and local cultures, its best to listen and watch Channel 8 News video often.
Here is the link.
Here is the link.
Take an Example: Traffic accidents involving Motorist has been on the rise.
Now you go thought the video with your child, then ask them to firstly tell you the moral of the video, which is there had been a rise in traffic accidents involving motorists.
Secondly you asked them to outline the 3 reasons for the rise in motorist accidents.
Then you can asked them if they are the motorist, or the car driver or the the road user, what would they do on the road to be safe.
If you want to analyse your child's performance you could record your child's answer on video and analyse their performance.
There are 4 things to measure in an oral conversation:-
1) The language usage, is your child using the correct words and phrases to express themselves and are they using idioms and other more sophisticated way to express themselves. That is they are using not just simple grammatically correct sentences.
2) Your child should be able to correctly identify the theme or moral of the story accurately, take a stand and stand up to their viewpoints with reasons.
Yes students who took 2 sides of the stand and students who cannot make a stand are not doing well here.
Your child must have a stand.
3) Your child should be able to do some simple reasoning for his/her stand. 2 to 3 reason to support their stand will help a lot.
4) Your child needs to relate a story and tell the story well with
a) expressions
a) expressions
b) emotions
c) idioms and phrases
d) and proper pronunciation.
4) Proper courtesy are essential like asking to be seated, smile at examiners, looks calm and polite, maintain some eye contact.
Do watch a video on Singapore affairs that are local and directly related to a student everyday and practice the above answering method.
Another new item is the simple letter writing segment.
There are some thing to look out for.
Firstly, the points are directly given in the notice or note, Do not fabricate facts.
Secondly, do write down the details as most marks are quite minor as every point is like 0.5 marks, so take care of the details and write them in.
Thirdly, Most questions is about the 5 w and 1 H so figure out them quickly will help with your answer a lot.
5W1H :Who,Where,When,What,Why and How.
Do take a look at all the Notes, Advertisements and Notices every where in your surrounds and learn to understand their word usage etc.
