Study Skills

Mathematics is learned by DOING problems.

Each topic/concept builds on the previous ones.

When your child does his/her Mathematics problem or Mathematics homework, advise him/her to write out the complete solution as if they were taking a test or examination.

Everyday Practice is very important. Your child MUST set aside at least 1 hour to do Mathematics daily.

Advise your child to get sufficient sleep the night before the test/exam. They need to be mentally alert.

Tackling Science assessment items

In answering Science questions,

answers should include correct

scientific words and concepts.

Page 115: The Best That We Can Be - Edgefield Primary School · 2018-01-15 · Today’s Programme • 10 –10.15 am Welcome Address & Level Expectations by Year Head • 10.15 –10.30 am

Tackling Science assessment items

For example,

Suggest a reason why

the handle of a cooking

pan should not be made

of metal.

Student’s answer: My hand gets burnt. X

This answer is incorrect as it does not

contain the correct science concept word.

Page 116: The Best That We Can Be - Edgefield Primary School · 2018-01-15 · Today’s Programme • 10 –10.15 am Welcome Address & Level Expectations by Year Head • 10.15 –10.30 am

Tackling Science assessment items

For example,

Suggest a reason why

the handle of a cooking

pan should not be made

of metal.

Correct answer: Metal gets hot easily or is a

good conductor of heat.

This answer clearly shows the correct

concept.

Page 117: The Best That We Can Be - Edgefield Primary School · 2018-01-15 · Today’s Programme • 10 –10.15 am Welcome Address & Level Expectations by Year Head • 10.15 –10.30 am

Read the question carefully.

Identify the key Science words in the

question.

Connect to the correct Science topic,

Science words and concepts.

Explain with these correct Science words

and concepts. Use comparing words

(more, fewer etc) for experimental

questions.

Tackling Science assessment items

Example:

Page 119: The Best That We Can Be - Edgefield Primary School · 2018-01-15 · Today’s Programme • 10 –10.15 am Welcome Address & Level Expectations by Year Head • 10.15 –10.30 am

Science words in

question: dry faster

Topic : Water & its change

of state - Evaporation

Concepts :

• Water gains heat and

evaporate into water

vapour.

• The rate of evaporation

depends on the

exposed surface area.

Example:

Page 120: The Best That We Can Be - Edgefield Primary School · 2018-01-15 · Today’s Programme • 10 –10.15 am Welcome Address & Level Expectations by Year Head • 10.15 –10.30 am

Correct answer: There is a largerexposed surface area when the

plates are placed on a rack.

Common mistake:

The water evaporated at a higher

rate. X

– merely repeating/paraphrasing

the phrase “dry faster”, did not

connect explanation to correct

concept.

Example:

Page 121: The Best That We Can Be - Edgefield Primary School · 2018-01-15 · Today’s Programme • 10 –10.15 am Welcome Address & Level Expectations by Year Head • 10.15 –10.30 am

Observations of common

students’ mistakes

Failure to connect explanations to the

correct Science words/phrases/concepts.

Failure to use comparing words (more,

fewer, less).

Explanations that are not

specific/precise/vague/ unclear.

Repeating and copying phrases from the

question stem.

How parents can help their children in Science

Have a filing system at home. Use the learning sheets for

revision.

Have a revision schedule. Important to have a consistent

and regular revision of topics in P3, P4

Talk about Science in daily life using Science vocabulary

– hanging wet laundry, a can of cold drink – gain heat and evaporate,

lose heat and condense

– wearing a sweater – reduce heat loss

– cracks on a cement walkway – expansion due to heat gain

– explore plants, flowers, edible seeds in the gardens – parts of a

flower, different types of fruits/seeds and how they are dispersed
