We met up with Helen and Ivan this week to solve their weighty money issue. Some found it challenging while others found it familiar from work they had done in class before.
Like every year, the examination paper has a balanced spread of test items of varying difficulties ranging from easy, moderate to challenging questions. We would like to assure parents that this year’s paper was set to comparable standards as past years’ papers.
The questions seen as “challenging” assess application of concepts and process skills in authentic contexts, and these questions are for those students, who can take it on.
The test paper has a range of questions for students of different abilities.
Some parents also mentioned that the Helen and Ivan question included the phrase ‘more heavier’, which is grammatically incorrect. We would like to clarify that the question in the PSLE paper (pictured here) did not use this phrase.
We would like to congratulate all our students for doing their best in the exams. It is now time to relax, enjoy your break and look to the future. All the best!
